How amazing. How motherfucking amazing. I fell in love all over again. Kolya, you dirty bastard. When you bring it, you bring it.
[6] Nikolai Davydenko (RUS) d. [1] Rafael Nadal 76(3) 63
What an amazing match he played. When Kolya's at his best his game is gorgeous to watch, and today, that's where he was. Unbelievable sprint after unbelievable sprint, amazing angle after amazing angle, winner after winner. This is the kind of match that makes me wonder why the vast majority of the tennis press insists on calling him boring. His game is so amazingly versatile, his press conferences have a great dry humour to them, and I swear I remember reading at some point that Marat said Kolya was the funniest guy on the Russian Davis Cup team. Suck on it, universe. If you can't see the brilliance of Kolya Davydenko, it's your own fault.
Ahem. Uh, anyway, super awesome for Kolya to get a win like this after all the injuries and the betting controversy. Well played, sir. Well played.
As for Rafa...
Don't you worry. It'll come.
