Berydch vs. Kohlschreiber - AO 2nd Round

[West Coast Ace]

Anyone else watching? PK is looking good in the 1st set... got the 1st break and is serving for the set.

[Legend of Borg]

He takes it.

I like his chances in winning this match.

Berdych does not fail to disappoint after his Wimbledon run.

Not that he was ever my favorite.

[West Coast Ace]

Berdych definitely underachieved the rest of the year after Wimby - had the painful 'deer in the headlights' look at the World Tour Final.

I still don't get the sense that he's got much of a gameplan - looks like he just hits hard and harder. Just shanked a nice overhead 4 ft. wide...

[Legend of Borg]

The worrying question is: How did a brainless ball basher like him get in the top 10?

[Li Ching Yuen]

Tomas, just go home and learn the serve.

You're almost 2 meters tall, you tennis player, you.

I sometimes don't understand why some commentators like Berdych more just because he hits most of his shots with a closed stance while they seem to have more disdain for Soderling because he hits alot of his shots open stance. It's like they're reminiscing about the old times, enough already

+1. Then the return of serve. He's not getting nearly enough back - he's making PK's serve look like Sampras'...

Berdych hits them more cleanly and is a better mover so yeah, maybe because of that too. Also his game is easy on the eyes.

I love Soderling tho, best groundies ever.

Lol, didn't realize this match had a thread. Me thinks Kohly will pull this off.

[Li Ching Yuen]

Berdych breaks.

Now consolidate, son.

[Telepatic]

Kohl sucks at net I guess.

[The-Champ]

I thought kohly was playing against one of the linesmen. Nice choice of color Berdy, way to distract the german.

[Li Ching Yuen]

Berdych takes the second: 6-2.

[Li Ching Yuen]

On my stream of this where Berdych is serving now there's an ad above it that says "Get A Killer Serve".

hahahaha

Oh man...

[dlk]

3-0 Berdych finding his form.

[Legend of Borg]

Kohl has a heck of a serve for a "little guy".

Credit for that saying goes to BG.

ESPN guru.
