Ferrer plays Nadal in Round 1 in the US Open. Ferrer used to be a valiant warrior. Guy had true heart and grit, which is rarely ever seen in modern day athletes.
Unfortunately, he's an old dog. The years have eaten him up and the end is near. He is going to retire some time next year and his mind and focus has not been in tennis. And when the mind goes... the ship gets off course and sails aimlessly at sea. Add on to that that his game is built on hustle and fight... it is a nightmare ending for Ferrer. He's trying to play with young man's fight in an old man's body -- a true recipe for disaster in tennis.
To top it off, he plays Nadal in Round 1.
Ferrer has fallen to about 150 in the rankings and is only about 2-9 in his last 11 matches. He got thumped 6-2, 6-2 by Paire who is a lazy, hideous quitter. He lost to Klahn, Molleker, Ruud and Munar recently.
I remember when Nadal put quitting, whining Roddick out to pasture in the US Open several years ago. Nadal tore Roddick to pieces and absolutely embarrassed him.
The total for this match is 26.5..... translation 6-3, 6-3, 6-2.
The total is too close to call. Maximum games this match should ever see would be 28 games. But either way, Ferrer should slaughtered alive.
Bet live in this match accordingly.
