Tennis: Juan Monaco v Adrian Mannarino

I've got to get in from the off here! 1.37 on Monaco here is too high in my book! It may be Juan's 1st match of the season but he is a different class to Mannarino even on the hard courts! I would even go as far as saying I expect a straight sets win but this is Monaco after all ;-)

Well I've just found a pic and see Monaco in a little trouble at  1*-2 0-30 ... 0-40! Monaco get a grip son! Break to love!

1-3* break back now then! 0-15 ... 0-30 Oi Oi !!! ... 0-40 Oi Oi Oi !!! ... 15-40 ... Break!!

2*-3 Nice hold please ... Holds

3-3* Now for the 7th game break?? Yesssss!!

4*-3 Consolodate!!!! 0-15 ... 0-30 FFS Mugaco!! ... 0-40!! What a %$@*!!! ... Break to love! If I wasn't crying I would be laughing!

4-4* Break again? 15-0 ... 30-0 ... 40-0 ... And an ace to finish!

4*-5 Hold please! 0-15 nine straight points from a break up!!! 0-30 TEN! ... ACE!!! 15-30 Monaco went out to evens there! ... 30-30 ... 30-40! ... Break for the 1st set! Utter clown! ... From 4*-3 up he proceeded to win 2 points from the next 12!!!

0-0* White shirt now for Monaco let's hope that is the signal that he wins from here ;-) 0-15 ... 0-30 ... 15-30 ... 15-40 Take It!!! ... Break! Better from Monaco!

1*-0 Can he hold now? 15-0 ... 15-15 ... 15-30 ... 30-30 ... 30-40 call from the chair again there on 1st serve! Where were you last match? ... Deuce ... FFS BP #2 ... Break! Sob sob!

1-1* I don't know about a break fest but Monaco is having a howler! ... Hold to love!

1*-2 Monaco wakey wakey! You're making Mannarino look like Nadal out there! 15-0 ... 15-15 ... 15-30 ... What's the matter Monaco? Too much sherry at Christmas? 15-40! ... and Break!

1-3* Terrible from Monaco! Just not at the races since being a break up in the 1st apart from the 1st game this set! Please feel free to completely ignore the opening paragraph of this post! I obviously made a typo and meant to put the players the other way round! LOL ... Hold to love!

1*-4 Well I thought it was bad enough what he did after being a break up in the 1st set but this set he has won 4pts from 21!!! ... 0-15 (4/22) ... 0-30 (4/23) is the prize money that bad here Juan? ... 0-40 (4/24) ... 15-40 Is this the start of the comeback trail??? ... 30-40 ... Deuce! ... BP #4 ... Deuce ... GP Haven't seen one of these for Monaco for a while! In fact this is the first in 5 service games! ... Deuce ... GP! Ooh they're like buses! ... Deuce ... BP #5 ... Deuce ... GP ... Leo Tolstoy has written books shorter than this game!! .. HOLDS!! Do my eyes deceive me?

2-4* Now a break and have the pre match dog losing just like if I had backed him please! ... 0-15 ... 15-15 ... 30-15 ... 40-15 ... Holds

2*-5 And probably break for GSM? Or maybe not! Mannarino changing to a pink shirt... Is that a sign? ;-) 15-0 ... 30-0 ... 40-0 ... Hold to love ... must be the shirt!

3-5* To choke or not to choke Adrian? 15-0 ... 30-0 ... 30-15 great drop shot Juan ... 40-15 two MP's!!! ... GSM

And so it would seem if I back a dog they capitulate but if I back a favourite they don't show up!

Mannarino Wins 6-4 6-3
Loss: £10
