I was kind of surprised by this line, I thought either nadal would be favored or it would be about a pick em, coria is around -150....my initial lean is towards nadal, but I don't know if ill play it. should be a fun one to watch though

Coria should be favored in this match, He is defending champion here and has a 1-0 hd to hd vs Nadal, but that doesnt mean I will be betting Coria

oh yeah, remember its a 5 setter also, we know how Nadal reacts to 5 setters lol

Nadal's a beast. Only 18, will only get better, stronger. He has to drop his uncle as his coach, let's get serious now. He turns that serve of his to a weapon and look out--all he has to do is hit it FLAT, say 20% of the time instead of 0% of the time, lol

A BEAST!!!!!!

he should skip Barcelona, too much tennis. The kid CANT SAY NO to organizers; again drop the uncle as your coach

yeah i dont think having someone in your family as your coach is the best idea...it can only get you so far, i mean i think the williams sisters would be much better off without their dad as their coach also...but like i said, WOW coria was favored over nadal???? LOL

The defending Champ here and probably the best clay court player for the last 2 years should be a favorite, a favorite doesnt mean hes will win and Nadal has never shown that he can beat Coria until today. Great win by Nadal, take a step back Coria amd Gaston, theres some new sheriffs in town. Nadal and Gasquet
