Not sure if there are any tennis fans up in hurr but how about Nadal losing right off the bat. Who thought he'd do worse than last year.

Federer won his first tournament of the year a week ago so he is riding some momentum.

Gotta root for my boy Milos though. Canadian pride. Also gotta root for my boy Tsonga. Loved him after I saw this...

What round did he lose in? I don't follow tennis much but I know around a year ago he was winning left right and centre.

1st round exit for ol' Rafi. 3 set sweep too. So no name that was only in the tournament because a set number of people withdrew.

tennis can be really intense. those special one on one matches. I used to watch it a lot at my grandparents' back in the days. a cup of cocoa with vanilla ice cream and epic wimbledon or french/australian open on that huuuge TV. my grandma always was happy as shit when steffi graf won matches etc, same with boris becker or other german pros. I just wanted to see agassi or sampras.

gotta recognize dat agassi vs.sampras match going 6-7 ,7-6, 7-6, 6-7, 7-6 or something. nowadays I dont watch tennis at all. still a good sport though. clearly soccer is the favorit sport, then basketball cloesly followed by tennis. those are the big 3. Fffff the rest ;D

Nadal also lost second round last year interestingly, you may be thinking of Djokovic Paul. Nadal hasn't played well since 2010 (French Open aside).

Hopefully Federer can make it 8! Djokovic and Murray the real obstacles here though.
