    Can Darcis upset Nadal at wimby?

    Darcis is priced at 29 with bookies and you can get a even better price at some exchanges, but is there any chance Darcis can upset Nadal at grass? IMO he has some chance , I hope atleast he can take a set away from nadal, you can lay Nadal 3-0 at 1.22 . I think this a good bet considering the fact grass is not Nadal's preferred surfacem he dont has much of a match practice on grass coming into this tournament, while Darcis had a good week at Netherlands. They have faced each other once before at Doha http://www.cricketscore.com/match/UD...#match-summary . What do you guys think?

    Steve Darcis???? Lol, hahaha. I saw him play in Dallas & if Steve Darcis beats Rafael Nadal at Wimbledon, I will move to inner Russia and live in a fukking cave for the rest of my life eating little critters that run around during the daylight hours. Question is, will Nadal cover the -11.5 games or whatever the hell it will be???? MY gut says, probably

    Actually, if the line is -11 or more, I bet Darcis has ONE set where he gets to 3 or 4, he just might cover 12 games, maybe........

    Who would even entertain the thought of Nadal losing to scrub Darcis?? Was this thread for real???

    Nadal will bounce back. He's dropped first sets before.

    Not really surprising that Rafa is taking time to get going as this is his 1st grass match/match period since the French - but his return game does not appear sharp yet and he has failed to capitalize on the few break points he's seen.

    Blew that set though. Finally broke and blew a chance to serve and even it. Apparently Rafa wants to do everything the hard way. Mind's gotta be playing tricks on him at this point if he drops another set.
