Hey everyone, thanks for reading! Just a quick post here. I thought that the Canadian Milos Raonic (who has been dubbed the Maple Leaf Missile) did really well to take a set off of David Ferrer. Ferrer is such a strong competitor and he wore Raonic down over the course of 4 sets but it was a good effort. Ferrer is precisely the type of player an up and comer needs to beat as a sort of measuring stick and Raonic aquitted himself well. He was very aggressive in the first set, ripping the ball and coming in behind everything and pressuring Ferrer who was still getting used to Raonic's powerful game. Ferrer started getting some passes in though and I think that Raonic backed off from the net and tried to win a ground war against Ferrer which is often a losing battle. We'll see much more of Raonic that is for sure. He seems like a polite and confident kid who has the tools to go far.
