[Miles]

Consider who these two are, their history and how evenly they are matched, this has to be the poorest quality GS final in a long time.

[Jessie181]

Rain delay.

Vamos Rafa!

Still better than yesterday's final, in my opinion. At least Novak shows glimpses of being able to get back and beat Rafa. Errani/Sharapova was boring.

[James7]

There are some good points mixed in there, but yeah.

What's bugging me is the body language from Nole.

THAT is the only part that I am enjoying.

Granted, the half an hour to prepare before each serve IS riveting.

Agree

[Miles]

The wiping of the lines (twice), tugging at his shorts, pulling at his shirt at both shoulders, wiping his nose, and pushing his hair behind each ear -- it really is all too much -- and he does this before a second serve too.

[Moose]

There's a set, Nole. Ajde!

[Scotty]

another rain delay.

This is as cranky as I can ever recall seeing Nadal.

[mwoods]

Yikes, get a Day 16 thread ready...

From the looks of the cartoon, I'm guessing NBC's tennis "window" is over. Would have been nice to hear that from them.

From what they said about a 7 a.m. Monday starting time, I'm guessing they aren't going to give up the Today Show for clay. Any word on who might be covering it live?

Of course, for all I know, they're back on court now.

NBC Sports Network. Used to be called Versus. Shows a lot of Tour de France (I'm trying to think of what you might have watched on that channel in the past, if you get it). Years ago, they had some Davis Cup matches.

Thank you. It's exactly where Versus used to be on my cable system.
