This is so boring. And yes this is the future. You wanna know why? Because every stupid long rally gets people off their seats at the stadium. It's like these people don't know real tennis. For a casual observer they think grindfests are amazing tennis.

Why would you want to judge viewers just because you think Short points are best? Do you think you know tennis better than Nadal, Joker and Murray?

C'mon dude..... if you are not interested don't watch!

I'm a tennis fan, obviously I want to watch the UNITED STATES OPEN.

I don't think short ports necessarily are the best. I like rallies where players are going for winners. This is just ridiculous and I'm not blaming the players the most...the court has slowed down incredibly at the US Open over the last 5 years or so. The balls seem incredibly slow.

LOL @ your username...says it all.

Same....though I don't enjoy Djoker either but not as much as Murray.

Are Y'all ready for another grind fest??

I'm not even going to bother to watch it, I just hope Djokovic wins it, meanwhile I'd rather watch Korean F1 GP instead of this match.

Murray playing aggresive and Nole looks like 2011.

Not my type of game, specially being around 3 am or so.

Murray isn't playing aggressive, He was still on the defense for the most part of today's match, still can't kill a low pace ball, the reason why he likes playing Fed so much is because Fed gives him the pace to work with.

Djoker will still be a baseliner more aggressive for sure, but still percentage player, with long points and a lot of running, long match it will be, 3 + hours, I will only watch F1 this time.

I divided this match in 3 parts to watch it.

Pretty boring grind fest match for the most part of it, dramatic, yes, but nothing really interesting besides a few points.

Am I the only one who sees Andy's tennis as an art form?
