This will be an interesting tie breaker. Raonic has been massive on serve here. He's a big change if he doesn't tighten up too much.

This may end up being a third set similar to the one against Tomic the other night.

Love me some Raonic, but he always loses the key points to Fed (and tbf, he's not alone in that).

Raonic should have been an Aussie too - so sad that his parents chose Canada ahead of Aus cos their immigration papers were shorter

If he'd come here he might have ended up like Tomic though.

This is true, this is true. Has Australia produced any decent blokes since Rafter?

Is Almagro serving like a beast? Only way I can imagine him owning Ferrer like this is with his serve on. He is a dangerous player when he's getting easy points on his serve, because he can then open up.

He can be a winner-machine at times. Him beating Ferrer in a Slam, if he can get over the line, will be absolutely massive.

Not according to the slam tracker. Ferrer is getting 75% of first serves in compared to 45% for Almagro, and winners/unforced errors are basically dead even. Seems the major difference is that Almagro has made the most of his break point opportunities (2/2 compared to 0/3 for Ferrer)
