Re: Nottingham: Simon defeats J. Sousa 6-4 6-1

Against Simon most players look like brainless ballbashers. And that's how Sousa looked today. And that's exactly why he lost.

Re: Nottingham: Simon defeats J. Sousa 6-4 6-1

Sousa was 0 on key points. Actually Joao was the better player on the 1st set but couldn't convert that to the scoreboard. On the 2nd set João just gone all over the place. Good display from Simon, though, but João should have won this one.

Simon had a good run at Queens, I don't understand why is he playing there instead of focusing on Wimbledon.

Expected loss, still a harsh beating

6-4 6-1 and you say that based on what exactly

Sousa is having it the other way around

Was live at this match and Gilles is just a joy to watch. Those flat low shots are such a great sight on grass and Gilles just seems to always pick the right ball to inject pace on.

After about 4 games it was clearly obvious that Gilles does everything Sousa does but better. Goes to show you just how bad form he was in at times last year when he was losing to players he looks so clearly superior to.

Simon was the better player in this match, obviously. I'm saying that Simon wasn't even that good and Sousa should've won this one.

again I can't understand why you would say that? just because he managed to beat him once? their careers are oceans apart in terms of achievements and frankly on grass Sousa has zero chance against him (to begin with a low chance regardless)
