Federer errored against Nadal - Again..!

By
Shear dominance from Rafael Nadal against Roger in the final at Rome today 6-1,6-3. Everybody including Roger expected a good match , but that didn't happen. Such a dominance from Rafa. I guess Rafa will have special tennis especially against the special person, Roger Federer.

Pathetic serve and so many unforced errors from Roger causing big-bigger-biggest  damages again and again and again against Rafa. Roger still didn't find the solution for Rafa's over top spin and high bounce on the back hand side. Yeah, the better player won today.

Reaching finals today is still a better achievement for Roger, but the way Roger started this tournament and the way he played today was unmatched. Too much defensive and Roger simply making unforced errors for less than 5 shot rally. And at crucial points Nadal showing all court play, putting top spin on the ball, send that ball to Roger back hand , ask Roger to hit slowly towards center of the court, and then you hit a winner. That's the game plan he is following for years. And Single handed Federer didn't find his best backhand today and even his forehand which is great this week, tend to be giving many unforced errors.

Match started with Roger serving, won first game looked comfortable. And Rafa started his dominance. straight 6 games, 3 breaks. And in the second set, Roger started well getting a break point, but Rafa saved that. and early in the set Rafa started breaking and leads to 5-1 and serving for match. At that time, Roger breaks Rafa game and holds his serve to 3-5. But unable to stop in the next service game and eventually gave the match.



"He played very aggressively from the start. He didn't make too many mistakes and had a good match overall. Rafa has much more topspin than all the guys I played this week, so the change was quite a big one. I tried to play offensively, but unfortunately I didn't have the best day. It didn't go the way I was hoping it to go." - Roger Federer

Credit to Rafa for winning his 6th title after his comeback and 24th masters title.

Rafael Nadal will be seeded 4 we are not going to see any quarters which will have Rafa and Roger/Novak/Murray match.

Looking forward to see all the players in Roland Garros :)

MeeBhoomi - A good initiative from AP Govt.

By
We bring nothing when we come to this world and we take nothing when we died. But still, what we have in the life will be valuable at least for the time we live. Wait, why I'm saying this now, because most of our valuable time is well spent on the land issues. And there is so many things need to happen to know the present owner of the land. Recently AP (Andhra Pradesh) government announces a portal for public to access all the land details.

Who we are? And what we are doing here on the Earth?

By
Ever wonder who we are? and what exactly we are doing on this Earth, the lonely planet revolving around this furious Sun along with a bunch of bros (I mean planets). Wait, this Earth? Do we have more than one Earth? Who knows, in this humongous vast space, can't we find another Earth? The probability is surely greater than Zero. Humans are evolving like anything. We invented the fire, the wheel and what not? We make our lives easier day by day. Sometimes, I feel we are also like ants.  Ants? Yes, Ants. Most of the time, many of us will not observe their movement. Perhaps we are also like ants or any creature and we are being ignored/watched by some of the invisible entities of outer space. Sometimes, I feel we are machines embedded with intelligence. Just like the robots embodied with Artificial Intelligence (AI), we are also programmed and delivered to Earth. The programmed chip may be called as DNA. A question comes in my mind, how come our children ...

Google's Stadia, the GAME changer!

By
Having a high-end computer or any one of the boxes (Xbox, PlayStation) is not necessary to play high end games in the near future. Recently Google announced a new product from its armory related to gaming at GDC2019, called Stadia . Stadia offers to stream the game in the web browser itself. The game will be loaded and run on the server side, only the video will be played on your computer/mobile. This can be called as Cloud Gaming or Game as a Service (GaaS). All we need is a decent internet connection and probably a subscription for Stadia. No need for any boxes. The traditional premium boxes will be second thought. Since they are expensive for a casual gamer, Stadia will be the best option to experience big games. High tech spec GPUs, high speed processors and all the expensive hardware part will be saved. Hmm, it sounds awesome!! This is another master plan by Google to rule the digital world. Already Google and it's echo system is way more penetrated...
