Massive potential shock, but Darcis still has to close it out.

[shearfox]

He can't seem to bend down at all

[ScouseFox]

Here we go then. Keep your nerve and you beat Nadal in straight sets on a show court at Wimbledon proper. Shit yourself o'clock. 

[kingfox]

Sexy Rafa not playing sexy Tennis.

 

Looks like he physically isn't right, and that's not an excuse, you can see something is niggling him when he comes to the net, and hits some backhands. 

 

Rosol went out today, Darcis if he wins will probably go out next round.

Unbeleivable Jeff!

Where's Uncle Toni's sly on-court coaching when you need it?

[kingfox]

What a shot, shot of the tournament already from Darcis.

 

And it's two match points. 

[shearfox]

Where did this Darcis come from!!l

[ScouseFox]

Holy shittttttt! He's done it!!! 

[Bobby Hundreds]

Get the F**K in Darcis lad!!

[shearfox]

Routine straight sets victory for.... oh hold on... Darcis wtf

[leicsmac]

Where did this Darcis come from!!l

 

He's a journeyman, just like Rosol.

 

And he's done it! 

[foxfanazer]

Massive shock!

Just what the tournament needed.

The men's draw can be somewhat predictable

[Guest MattP]

Fantastic.

 

Fair play to Rafa at the end, behaved like a sportsman for once.

Yeah took it well. Can't feel very good at all for him

[Wycombe Fox]

Very interesting opinion.

expect Darcis to lose in straight sets next match then...

[promised land]

Nadal is a proper sporting gentleman though, waited for him to walk off together and even signed some autographs after losing in the first round.

I doubt you'd see Murray do that, infact last year in the Olympics he refused to sign a child's ball after he lost in the doubles.

[kingfox]

What a first day, all started with Puig demolishing Errani in the Women's, now Darcis demolishes Rafa in the Men's.

 

He will probably go out next round, tough match against Lukasz Kubot, not going to be easy that. 

[leicsmac]

Darcis has done a Rosol. Kubot is beatable so he might make it through the next round, but I doubt he'll make it much further than that.

 

Fed and Murray must both be laughing their respective arses off.

Anything to have a dig at murray.

[Matt]

Is Murray out yet?

It's true though.

 

Is it a dig if you're stating fact?

[shearfox]

Is Murray out yet?

Why would he be out, been to the final of the last three slams he competed in... Winning one

Depends, Can it be proven?

 

Personally I think Murray has gone above and beyond to try to change the public perception of him that the medias lies created, but there clearly are people who simply refuse to listen and instead pursue their own irrational view.
