Kevin Anderson vs John Isner - Wimbledon SF 2018

[tennis4me]

Relieved more than joy in Anderson's face. What a match! Isner still signing for fans after this lost - nice.

Congrats to Anderson.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Don't joke about this now cuz it's over. Get them Wimbledon officials to change this crap.
Who knows? John may have won a 5th set breaker.

Don’t have 5th set tiebreaker only in the finals. It would be better that way.

 

[RS92]

Take a bow Kevin Anderson.

Unreal stuff.

 

[Chicharito]

Madness. Well done both but final a dud now. 6 hours 35 mins, how do you recover from that???

Hopefully a final set tb introduced as a legacy.

 

[Terry Tibbs]

Is Anderson's name on the trophy? Coming through 2 epic matches like that.

 

[True Fanerer]

 

[MajesticMoose]

what an effort by both guys. grats to Anderson for making the final. amazing effort.

 

[Apun94]

a hardcore fed fan...lmao but you aren't biased?. and rofl are you the authority on objective fans? never said anything about the goat as I realize there are too many factors, but if arguing against fed vulturing slams makes me a hardcore fed fan than the likes of hitman are hardcore fed fans. keep trying.

who are these objective fans by the way? everything that is said at this forum is with a biased perspective, hardly anyone is objective including tennis commentators too. quit pulling things out of your ass.

also people cannot whine about fed breezing through draws(which is such an exaggeration) and say he is not that great or w/e and then still use him as a measuring stick. it doesn't work lik e that. also if he isn't all that great due to his weak era, which imo is such bs, then the people who nadal and Djokovic beat to get their slams are not that great either considering a lot of them fed.

also if anything you are coming from a far bigger bias than anything. done with this pointless conversation.

Hahahahaha really hit a nerve there. So salty. Chill man.
You know what, yes I am biased too. Sure.
But look. Count the number of slam WINS in which Fed never faced Djok or Nadal and count the number of slam wins by Djokovic and Nadal in which they didnt have to go through the other 2

 

[Thundergod]

My respect for Ando has gone way up. I never thought someone like him would ever make 2 Slam Finals and this one was legit.

 

[Alchemy-Z]

Anderson got a hot wife, though, way above his league. And now a second Slam final.

Who's gonna finish him off is the only question remaining?

Hopefully his wife

 

[swordtennis]

Could have been worse. 5th set tiebreaker would have been light fun and entertaining with these two.

 

[bluetrain4]

This may be the fastest shuffling off of the match participants and introduction of the next match participants.

 

[FedererDropShot]

uh no, I was happy that you fedephants were given the karma you deserved for dissing Anderson as a mug because he made it to the USO final last year and lost to Nadal!

get it straight buddy!

He'll be a 'mug' again in the final, don't you worry about that.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

How much does Anderson have left in the tank?

Probably not much. Remembered he came off another 5th setter as well.

 

[Zardoz7/12]

Anderson is such a fighter and a gentleman.

ando to choke...

lol, not choking...

congrats ando.

A tennis player who now has made two grand slam finals and will be ranked atleast world number 5 on Monday has a wife way above his league?

 

[mike danny]

Now please, Djokovic, don't let it be another Nadal-Anderson final. At least try and play in such a final yourself.

 

[Gary Duane]

What do you mean Gary? What should Wimbledon have done?

Are you freakin' kidding me?

GET RID OF THE NO TB RULE IN THE 5TH SET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[DRII]

Awww,
Anderson is a genuinely good man!

 

[jussumman]

All criticism aside - the falling down and switching to left handed shot by Anderson was epic and one to remember from this.

 

[sportmac]

At least in regards to the final I think it's better KA won, Isner doesn't recover well after long matches.

 

[mike danny]

That moment when you realize that Anderson has more GS finals than Delpo.

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

Anderson sure is overachieving lately.

Sounded emotional talking about Isner. Cool to see. Very likable guy.

He just asked for a change of format to add a tiebreak too, wow I love him now.

Yeah?

 

[Djokovic2011]

Gotta say Anderson seems like a really nice guy. I like him.

that was insane

 

[ibbi]

2 slam finals in 12 months for Big Kev. What a hero. No easy half of the draw this time - 26-24 in the fifth, and 20 time slam winner. God bless 'im.

 

[NoleFam]

Gracious words from Anderson in the BBC interview.

 

[Tennis sensation]

Well done Anderson. Now nobody can say that the US Open final run was a fluke.

 

[BrokenGears]

I’m never calling Anderson a mug again

 

[Sambuccashake]

And to think that all is Fedrs fault.

The virtual bye (no, not PHB) in the final is all his fault.

 

[abmk]

uh no, I was happy that you fedephants were given the karma you deserved for dissing Anderson as a mug because he made it to the USO final last year and lost to Nadal!

get it straight buddy!

that's because he played like a mug in that USO final.
nowhere near how he's played at this Wimby QF/SF.

 

[ak24alive]

Wow. What beautiful words by Big Kev. Both of them have certainly earned a fan today and hopefully many more.

 

[BeatlesFan]

Respect.

Unlike so many of the next Gen guys who give up after losing the first set.

 

[Zardoz7/12]

BRING IN TIE BREAKS.

 

[-NN-]

Awww,
Anderson is a genuinely good man!

Great interview here. Tremendous and inspiring effort from Kevin here at Wimbledon - it's great to see.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Yeah, fair play to them.

Congratulations to Kevin Anderson. No more fundamentally quotes for you.

 

[Deleted member 23235]

cool that isner still signing autographas after the loss.

 

[3fees]

71 page match..

[junior74]

Anderson is, understandably, an emotional wreck after that match, trying to give an interview... Think he's doing fine

Two humble giants - of which one had to fall in the end...

 

[DarlesChickens]

Well played Ando. Really glad you got through.

 

[Zetty]

Weird match

 

[mike danny]

uh no, I was happy that you fedephants were given the karma you deserved for dissing Anderson as a mug because he made it to the USO final last year and lost to Nadal!

get it straight buddy!

It's only fair. You guys constantly diss Fed's competitors who defeated Nadal in slams like Gonzalez, Blake etc.

 

[aman92]

Wonderful post match interview by Anderson...new found respect for him.

 

[Deleted member 512391]

Well done Anderson. Now nobody can say that the US Open final run was a fluke.

It wasn't a fluke, it was just disappointing how he played in the final, but I guess reaching his first major final had affected him and he underperformed.
