Rafa doesn't need this stress, he's losing enough hair as it is.

I am living for Grandma Rafa's unamused reactions in his player box.

I have never seen his Grandma before

Nana Nadal does not look too happy

Who are the young girls. Are they his sisters

Nole just has Frenchmen between him and the final.

If he beats Edmund.

Rafa.

Pouille should be dead right now, 3 5-setters in a row!

Lucas Pouille has improved so much

He reminds of Kyle Edmund the way he hits the ball

Edmund and Pouille will probably retire injured before the matches

Great match but I can't help feeling Rafa bottled that. Too many times he made unforced errors on big points when in a winning position near the end of the 5th set. Well played Pouille, a great performance.

Lucas Pouille does not look French

He looks like Liam Broady

Rafa

Think he is finished, his dodgy knees just can't take any long 5 setters.

I was indifferent to Pouille before, and although he was beating Rafa I was willing to keep an open mind, but that tongue out thing he just did has put him straight on my shit list

The knees aren't the problem. The mind is.

I cant see him winning another Grand Slam even at the French Open

There are too many good young players who can beat him now

Well, surely the dodgy knees would effect his play and mind set?

I agree and not even sure he could win the French .

No. He's just lacking confidence at the clutch moments due to lack of matches. He looks physically fine.

I agree. It felt like he had to get at least to the semi's here to get back to being a threat.

God this Konta match feels like it was last week. Good luck Petra and Kyle, time for me to bow out tonight.
