AO 2019 - R4 : (3) "Zeus" Federer vs Tsitsipas "Apollo"

NatF · Jan 20, 2019

Poor shot selection from Tsits the last two points.

D.Nalby12 · Jan 20, 2019

Two really smart shots from Fed. 0-30.

Unpopular opinion in a thread like this but it is amazing to me how angry Maestronians get with Fed errors. The guy is 37. 20x slam champion. Sorry he isn't consistent as he was at 25 lol

True but some of these UEs are just flat out ridiculous lol. Grandpa needs to stop shanking.

Lots of well deserved hype for this match right now but the truth is Roger isn't playing his best tennis. It's been fascinating watching his inability to dominate Tsitsipas off the ground. Tsitsi is dictating play more often than not and has a clearly superior backhand.

PS: Fed is up a set and 4-3 and has not faced a BP yet.

Jesus Christ, reading this thread and my head hurts. Have you guys ever played tennis? You know, there are 2 guys playing, not just Fed to be able to win every point.

No no. It's Fed vs a guy with a frying pan. How is he not hitting a winner off every shot??

Blinderer.

You are still afraid of Rafa ? Its tough to cheer for GOAT.

Fed will be old when loses so they're not worried.

Rme if Agassi can be considered old man over the hill at 35, 37 year old is too.

Red Rick · Jan 20, 2019

Meanwhile, it's honestly a bit sad to see MCA so empty for a quality 4th round match

Come on Roger

Slightly D1 · Jan 20, 2019

Has Federer won any titles since ditching Nike?

D.Nalby12 · Jan 20, 2019

Sisi really forcing Fed to play his best Tennis. Thank you.

Exactly. Shame on him. How does he dare making mistakes. He should finish the game with 70 winners and 1-2 UE.

I seriously think that most people that complain have never played tennis.

-NN- · Jan 20, 2019

Win the 2nd set FFS.

End this nonsense. Terminate the Big Three.

At least Basel

Towny · Jan 20, 2019

Great backhand from Fedr. Baseline game has been better this set

Otacon · Jan 20, 2019

I'm afraid he'll regret all those missed opportunities on Tsitsi's serve.

jimjam · Jan 20, 2019

Im quite impressed that neither player has double faulted in 1.5 sets in such a tense match.

icedevil0289 said:
Well he was playing a lot better then I dont think bo3 is comparable. I havent watched s whole lot of nadal but apparently he has looked really impressive

Matches are played for a reason. Maybe Roger loses if he reaches Rafa, but no need to be that pessimistic. That's my point

I've played a lot of tennis and most of it at Federer's level.

OhYes · Jan 20, 2019

Tsitsipas lacks brains (experience). You can't win this by gung ho approach.

Krish872007 · Jan 20, 2019

Federer looking the more likely winner at this stage for sure

MichaelNadal · Jan 20, 2019

An interesting side-note. This is the 3rd tie-break in the last 3 sets these two have played, and Federer has won each of the first 2, and, in one of those, Tsitsipas led 4-1. let's see.

Terrible tosses, terrible first serves and he is somehow still getting points off Rog when he needs them.

Agassi was old in his mid 30s while Fed became old since 2008.

No need of agenda when we see finalists

on the list of 3 goat players

abmk · Jan 20, 2019

tsit clearly looks to be the best at the net among the young guys.

Red Rick · Jan 20, 2019

mike danny said:

Nobody really has played anyone till this point.

Unless you consider Tsitsipas a really big name right now and Fed isn't exactly looking great.

I dont recall fed being called old in 2008. I do recall many people asking for him to retire though

Steve0904 · Jan 20, 2019

That return was so unbelievably bad. He backs up to get in the point, and the return drops barely over the net, midcourt.

Was it you who took over for him in the 5th set of the 2017 AO final?

I Am Finnish · Jan 20, 2019

Fedr is holding his serve easier than the greek
