Estoril Final : Montañes def Blake 5-7 7-6(6) 6-0

Good to see the claycourter win over the ballbasher and congrats to Albert on winning his second title.

:lol:

That's the pathetic choking loser we're used to!

james :haha:

Montanes too good for the American bolter.

Montañes saved two match points when serving at 5-7 4*-5, 15-40.

Congrats Albert!

shame about the choke and for having to play 2 matches today but great week for Blake :yeah:

I haven't watched the match, but let me guess:

1) James missed to close it in 2

2) in the 3rd set he was dued (because Albert is in agood form and Albert feels himself in the 2 hours + matches like a fish in the water)

3) James played 2 sets in 1/2 today so when the match approached 3rd set it was a race aginst time for James

Spain is full of lucky players :o Montanes should of lost earlier this week and Blake is expected to lose these matches since hes a choker.

damn that sux for blake, good on him for putting up a fight on his most pathetic surface :yeah:

Right on the dot, I guess. Blake had 2 match points in the 2nd, and then he just tired in the 3rd. Plus Montanes is in good form.

good and important result for tennis :yeah:

Congrats Albert!! :yeah:

Pathetic Blake strikes back :o His returns on both matchpoints after Montanes' 2n serves were embarassing :help: It's almost unreal how many matches Blake lost after wasting match points.

Lemme guess, he tried to crush them for winners and missed horribly?

Haha, I --CANNOT STAND-- James Blake but wow!

You ought to take your delusional loathing for America to the next level because you obviously feel strongly enough about it to bark it here incessantly. I can recommend a few more meaningful places to do this other than a tennis forum. Don't leave here altogether, though. ;)

Good for Montanes and so typical of JB to disappear at the end.

Lemme guess, he tried to crush them for winners and missed horribly?

Yes :)

you seem to be a big fan of Montanes, bilbo

Great tourney from James, actually pretty much owned everybody, just didnt shut the door. All you American haters on this thread are lucky that your clay court boy got the winning result, not really a winning match. Way to go JB!!

Blake :rolleyes:

Good job Albert :yeah:

When Flake is defeated , the sport called tennis is the real winner

Yes :)
Typical Blake.

i had what could only be described as a genuine wtf moment when blake won the first set on the sb...

the joke has been on clay court tennis all week...

of course you are gonna get some freak results... that's great... but ffs, blake beating davydenko on clay...?!? fair suck of the ol' sausage... please...

:/

you guys suck especially the original poster.

Typical Blake.

Yes, but it's amazing he doesn't draw any conlusions. He has been an extreme MP waster :D It isn't even funny anymore.

Considering its clay its not his biggest choke ever. Good week for Blake.

:/

you guys suck especially the original poster.
Blake lost :p Deal with it :retard:

Crashed after the 2 missed matchpoints.

Surprise, surprise :zzz:

Montañes saved one MP in his QF match against Gilles Simon (5-7 6-4 7-6(4)) as well. Has it ever happened before that the winner of a tournament has saved MP in more than one match? I guess it has happened but probably not too many times. Voo?

classic Blake

Voo, will know if anyone does in this subject.

Blake did hit a line and got a good bounce for him at 6 all, if he was good enough, he'd have won the match, it's not like he didn't have chances.

GoOd Week albert :yeah:
Congrat for you second title :worship:
Gl in Madrid the next week :wavey:

STFU

this is no football thread ;)

first title today, deal with it.

Great week for James to get to a final on clay :hatoff: Too bad he had to play two matches in one day.

Keep the momentum going through the French Open, James.

is Monty a Barca fan?

seems the week for amazing escapes for them

Yes, he is.

Unlucky Blake. He was always going to struggle to win two matches in one day. His 5-set record proves he's no marathon man.

Congrats Montanes.

Great to see Davydenko failing to win this title :yeah:

Great week for both Albert and Blake, congrats.

Lemme guess, he tried to crush them for winners and missed horribly?

Yes :)

he is an agressive returner...it is in his nature to do it...just followed his gameplan
all honour in that

Monty:yeah:

Monty:yeah:

But he's a stupid one, therefore he loses so many matches which should have won. It's a matter of wrong shot selection and lack of proper concentration when it's the most required.

Montañes can put his flowers somewhere.

Blake is the bagel boy, as an American he is proud to eat the bagels given by his superiors.

:yeah: thanks for vcash too :p

blake must've ran out of steam...

It has happened 9 times since 1993.

Last one was Wesley Moodie :o :D

shame about the choke and for having to play 2 matches today but great week for Blake :yeah:

Fully agree. He's been in a rut for awhile, and hopefully this week gets him inspired for the rest of the season.

Montanes' current ranking is already hard to believe, he will go up even further now. :lol:

Well done Albert! :yeah:


Oh and Força Barça and f^ck Chelsea and Real Madrid!

Montañes can put his flowers somewhere.

now that's what I call an ugly trophy. :eek:

:(........:mad:.

Muffin head.

That would have been so random in a good way to see James winning a title on clay after all these disappointing weeks.

a final is good i guess.
keep it up.

well done monty
always nice to see Blake losing

If Blake wasn't tired, he would've put it away. 2 matches within a couple of hours, that's what did it. Montañes is very lucky.

Blake :o :tape: not surprising to read he had match points, didn't get the job done and then WTF'ed the 3rd set :lol: :o I'm just glad he reached the final, which pissed off a lot of his haters here :lol: :yeah: I'm not a real fan of his tennis, but he's a good guy and I don't get where all the hate for him comes from :shrug: :o

Oh and Força Barça and f^ck Chelsea and Real Madrid!

:o

Blake will win the French Open!

He smugly smiled on grass while serving for a Davis Cup match and thought he lost 3 Olympic match points because of bad luck and Gonzalez' cheating.

He also laughed after a lucky tiebreak win over Mathieu. He had to save 2 match points in that precious DC match. Cry for the poor nice genius. The US team certainly does. Good week. He's so tired!!!! :rolls:

Blake will win the French Open!
Hewitt has a better chance of winning it.

James' rocket fuel ran out during the tiebreak of the 2nd set. Had to come back down to earth sometime....still a great result for James on clay.

damn that sux for blake, good on him for putting up a fight on his most pathetic surfaceFederer couldn't send another ingratiating get-well-soon card again after a clay tennis disaster from Blake. Apparently, it's too hard to handle the Americans "sticking around in tennis" with Federer again.

Blake and Donkey need to be locked in a room with a grizzly.

good and important result for tennis :yeah:

At least you got 1 out of three. Seeing that Berdych and Djokovic also won :D

Yes, but it's amazing he doesn't draw any conlusions. He has been an extreme MP waster :D It isn't even funny anymore.

Blake makes no adjustments whatsoever to his game regardless of circumstances. He was struggling to win points on Montañes' service games throughout yet he didn't even consider taking a couple of steps back to return serve.

Montañes played meh.

This final was about as dull as a match in which the winner saves MPs can be.

At least you got 1 out of three. Seeing that Berdych and Djokovic also won :D

according to my pocket i got 2 out of 2 :D

better luck next time

according to my pocket i got 2 out of 2 :D

Just referring to the hate list in your sig :D

Blake :lol:

hard to believe Monty has two ATP titles already

thanks montanes for getting the job done. blake has no right to win a clay court match. he is just a mindless, brainless, clueless ballbashing mug. blake's answer to alot of errors is ballbash it even harder and make even bigger errors. what a moron. i want rafa to face this mug blake one day on clay so rafa can triple bagel the mug.

The last I saw Blake was up 7-5, 5-4. I can't believe Montanes came back. :eek:

what a fighter this blake is.
great effort in 3rd set

fans at espn are saying on a serious way that blake can beat fed and rafa on clay.
im just looking for my gun.

Too bad Blake lost.. such a close fight there in the second set.. :(

Certificated hater of:
Berdych, Djokovic, Gulbis, Davydenko, Tursunov, Philippoussis, Blake, Ginepri, Roddick, Melzer, Bryan Brothers

omg you are priceless.
Do you hate all american players? :confused:

Well done for Montanes, this result should ensure his next year on ATP.

James :haha:

Blake still cant compeat with Baggy, the biggest SP/MP waster of all time
