2019 Roland Garros

All I know is Nadal will be smiling tomorrow with another grand slam.

The protocol you are putting forward is incorrect. I don’t know how many times I have to correct you on tennis matters but your arrogance always catches you out.

Nadal was the highest seeded tournament remaining in the tournament but was left wait on a pair of giraffes.

If you knew anything about tennis you will know they are the only tournament to deviate from the world rankings in order to sort out their favourite sons.

If you knew a thing about grass court you would know they actually had to be brought to task for their seeding system and make it transparent as they had previously being caught out for making it up as they went along. In a bizarre twist they don’t even have the same system for the women’s game - they just go with the world rankings.

The more you talk about tennis the more evident it comes that you haven’t a breeze about the game at all.

You are advocating that after the quarter finals at the Championship last year, the organisers should have breached protocol and given Nadal preferential treatment by switching the running order to allow Nadal play his semi final first.

It was a similar scenario ar the Championship 2017. Roger Federer, the Number 3 seed was the highest seed to reach the semi final. Federer was in the bottom half of the draw and in accordance with protocol, his semi final against Number 11 seed Tomas Beedych was played second. The first semi final featured Number 24 seed Sam Querry (the quarter final conquerer of the Number 1 seed, Sir Andy Murray) and the Number 7 seed Marin Cilic.

The only protocol you are referring to is completely made up and once again you have completey ignored the bulk of the points made. You have completely failed to address these points.

Cat got your tongue?

You’re so rattled by the chasing I’ve given you here, you are now posting and arguing about the All England Lawn Tennis Championship in the Roland Garros 2019 thread. Stage 9.

I’m not rattled one bit. You’re just a little tender and raw about Nadal destroying your boy once again.

It should be noted for the record that you have conceded the point on Wimbledon’s fix of a seeding system and favouritism given towards Federer and Djokovic in RG this year.

Djokovic can be backed at 7/2 here.
