You seem to have a chip on your shoulder.
Enjoy watching Carreno Busta vs Anderson in a semi final of a grand slam and then a one sided final. If this was a 250 event then that would be a great semi final. If your idol decided to pull out at the right time then the draw wouldn't have been strawberry floated. Do you think I'm the only one calling him out for it? Rafa called him out on it too.
Nadal is 4-0 vs Anderson and Carreno Busta. Del Potro is 6-0 vs Anderson and hasn't played Carreno Busta yet.
Del Potro, Federer or Nadal would have gone through to the final in their sleep if they were on the other side of the draw. Murray with a dodgy hip would have too.

So you couldn't answer any of my points and repeat what I say. Well done.
You were making points that you wanted me to reply to? Sorry, it came across as a tantrum.
If your idols had played well enough to be seeded better, or even make the semi finals then things might be different. But they didn't. Had Rafa been on the other side of the draw, he might have gone out in the first round.
To win a tournament you need to beat the players in front of you, not whine that you didn't get an easier draw.
Diddums.
Federer isn't my idol. I've criticised him many times for his arrogance if you bothered reading this thread and the way he played against Nadal over the years. But you only probably show up for Wimbledon.
Played well enough to be seeded better? Erm they were the first two seeds once Murray withdrew if you actually paid attention. It's just Murray decided to withdraw after the draw was made and replaced by a lucky loser.
Rafa has been on the harder side of the draw and yet he's made it to the semi final. So even then your point is stupid. The other side must be tough when Kevin Anderson makes a semi final. Then you have a Spanish journeyman who hasn't dropped a set and has lost more games than he has won on tour. So tough, I'm sure Rafa or Roger would have struggled big time with that. They should have quit after the draw was made too with those odds.
Unlike you, I want a competitive final. Not a one sided affair like Wimbledon or the French open was. Rafa vs Federer/Del Potro would have provided that. The Australian open final was by far the best match this year. So sorry for preferring a final like that rather than Nadal/Delpo vs PCB/Anderson.
I would be saying the same thing if Federer, Nadal or Djokovic pulled that gooseberry fool. You had a injury and missed two months. Then surely you know if you are ready before the draw is made.
