NADAL CLINCHED THE MONTE CARLO TITLE FOR THE SECOND TIME
--again,as he is the defending champion. i slept really late (around 1:00) to monitor the game in the very successful live play-by-play blog in www.iw2006.blogspot.com, and i can say that this live play-by-play blog is very effective for those who don't have TTC or The Tennis Channel like me. and as you now,there is no live coverage in espn or star sports! argh! also, the rafa vs. federer cheering thread was of much help too as they were giving prayers and all those stuff to rafa and informing those in the forums the latest happenings! everybody is wishing my rafa to break a serve or hold his serve. he is sort of having trouble with his service but mahn,,,he is great in breaking the serve of the world number one rogelio! it is very difficult to explain everything so i suggest those who are intrested to visit the www.iw2006.blogspot.com site. there were four sets all in all,the score is 6-2,7-6,3-6,7-6. what's surprising is the fact that nadal, in the fourth set,won the tiebreak. roger federer is very good in tie breaks and for the season of 2006, he has only lost one tiebreak! well, nadal caused the second one i believe :)). ughm..that's all. VAMOS RAFA!!! :)
