Nadal always goes out early in these grass warm up event, u new he wasnt taking this tournament serious, when he also enter doubles. Kolschreibe play great in thee 1st set, serve well, was hitting hard, & has a nice backhand, deserved 2 win, Kolschreibe played quality. 4 me Murray going backwards, he broken 2 much, + his 4hand a liability when he has a oppurtunitie 2 put the ball away.
Yeah, the atp should skip all tournaments, at least 4 weeks before every slam, otherwise it's impossible for Nadal to built on a decent fitness level at the slams.
The poor guy could hardly walk at the french open.
The most pathetic bit is when he lost his singles match he pulled out of the doubles one, as well
Jonty, I would not worry too much about them losing, you can sense how all he top ones - bar Federer perhaps - are not too eager to participate.
Summer, just think its another little indication that schedule is too cramped.
There is a little indication (a big indication actually): the sport has become too physical. Don't blame the schedule, blame the courts/balls

Just to put the record straight, it was Granollers that decided to pull out of the doubles.
But the truth has never got in the way of the haters on here having a bash at Nadal.
I believe I also read NITB commenting on Rafa only turning up for the appearance money. Oh how soon she forgets Novak last year turning up for one match at Bercy, banking his appearance money then not even bothering to play his next match and just withdrew. Of course his shoulder only started hurting after the first match. Probably the weight of his appearance money.
nadull is not the victim, it's the tennis which has become victim of his pathetic tennis.
Good to see him lose. Better player won, No, for sure!
I kind of agree with GP there. This part of the calendar has always been the same. I think tennis now puts too much premium on physical game and endurance. I mean, it has always been, and will always be, an athletic endeavour, but the focus on physicality has grown a bit too much.
Also, grass courts no longer play as different as they used to so players may feel it is not as crucial to get many matches under their belt.
The Mighty Federer, for sure the better player on the day won. Sure Rafa is crying into his Roland Garros trophy as we speak.
If you are saying that Kohlschreiber is the better player full stop, then all I can say to that is

I am saying that No, for Sure Nadull said that he had to play his best Lacko. So if Lacko needed nadull to play his best then we can all imagine as what Kohli might have forced him to produce, no, for sure?
Even after the match nadull did not stop in hailing Kohli as one of the best tennis player, correct, no, for sure?
Kholi is a good player. Nadal is no grass whizz and I'm glad he lost this match regardless of how and why.
Kholi has a great game for grass, is quick on his feet, knows how to use the entire court. It's only his size that's been a disadvantage to him as he lacks fire-power to fight off the more consistent baseliner players (such as Nadal).
Give Kholi some credit, as well.
It sends the right message to other players
Wouldn't it be great for Nadal to get knocked out in the first round at Wimbledon !!!
By Kholi, of course

I will buy drinks to everyone on the house if that becomes a reality.
U 2 sleep nice 2nite with ur Nadal voodoo doll, with 11 pins in it, get another pin ready, coz Nadal coming 2 claim his 3rd Wimbledon crown, ready 2 blast his opposition with his nuclear 4hand.
