Novak Djokovic v Gael Monfils

First QF of the Men's Singles.  Ajde Nole!!!

LOL, what a first point!

First BP of the match goes to Gael and he gets it as Nole nets, 2-1.  I have a feeling this is going to be a good match.  I remember their last meeting in Paris in November, that was a cool match too.

At the 4th time of asking Nole gets the break back when Gael hits out.  4-4, 1st set.

EDIT

1st set to Nole on the TB.  Some nice play from Novak in that set, especially at the net!

Crazy rant from Novak, screaming at this parents in Serbian , lol.  Whatever he said worked as he has a break.  A little word in his ear from Carlos Ramos and a smile from Novak.  Gael better not let this match get away from him.

But he is :(  Novak is continuing to scream at himself and look downbeat but he is another break up, leading a set and 3-0.  Gael needs to try and get a break back now other wise i think that might be it for him!

Not looking good, Nole took the 2nd set 6-1.  The conditions are windy but it is the same for both players.

EDIT

This is a gonna for Gael.  Down 4-2 (1break) and not handling the conditions well.  I think Novak will be very happy with a straight set victory, this had the potential to be a difficult match for Novak.

EDIT

And we have out first semi finalist and that is Novak Djokovic!!  Another break gives Nole a straight set win.

I am off to bed now as the OOP for tomorrow is out and as expected Rafa is the night match.

Night all!
