His ground game seems terrible. So many errors, not much power.I started watching at 3-3 and so far it seems Nick is the one in danger
I think Goffin woulda beat Fed today
Yeah but Fed was iffy. RBA came close and Goffin looks better than RBA.Doubt it. Goffin's too similar to RBA. No real weapons to hurt Fed with.
I guarantee you fedr would prefer a Goffin victory tonight. I know Zed wants it even more.Yeah but Fed was iffy. RBA came close and Goffin looks better than RBA.
wait the 2nd set just started ...Nick can't stand these refs. So now he's almost out of challenges.
Isner, Karlovic and Raonic have better serves.Kyrgios has the best serve I have seen since Roddick save the giants
Treesner and Slowovic are the giants @1477aces speaks of; RaoMUG is a giraffe with bad feet. His serve is better when he doesn't withdraw. That doesn't happen often enough.Isner, Karlovic and Raonic have better serves.

Miami loves these courts, I guessIts still 1-2? I swear it's been a 10 min since I last checked
Looks like Fed might not get his wishI guarantee you fedr would prefer a Goffin victory tonight. I know Zed wants it even more.
To compete, sure but win big? Probably not.Kyrgios is playing well below his normal level and still is winning. I like Goffin, but he just doesn't have the power and talent to compete at the highest level.
"Punk Sampras"? I love that nicknamepunk Sampras up the break!
Er... Zverev/Fed would be every bit as fun. The real bummer is KG/Z having to clash before semi. That sucks so much. I need to ventNot a chance in hell Berdych beats Federer. Hopefully Kyrgios beats Zverev again so we get the Federer Kyrgios match-up we were denied by a food bug.
Against Z? Not a chance (unfortunately ). He'll withdraw before Fed with a sore toe (ha ha fervently hoping I'm wrong for the sake of my sanity )Man, if Kyrgios can ever fix his attitude he'll be a force. That backhand can create a lot of trouble for opponents - and yes, I know the forehand is the better shot. Unfortunately, I bet he withdraws tomorrow or tanks because he's tired. Here's to hoping I am surprised...
Absolutely not true. Zverev can too.Commentator just nailed it. Kyrgios is the only guy right that can give Federer a run for his money.
Me too but I also want to see that fck face beaten by Sascha.As a fed fan i want kyrgios in the semis. I want to see revenge for madrid assuming fed beats berdych.
Man, if Kyrgios can ever fix his attitude he'll be a force...
we've already seen zverev vs fed twice. one this year. kyrgios and fed have only clashed once and that was two years ago
Zverev doesn't have the serve, forehand, or defensive skills to beat Federer. Kyrgios does.Absolutely not true. Zverev can too.
Zverev doesn't have the serve, forehand, or defensive skills to beat Federer. Kyrgios does.
Defensive skills? LOLZverev doesn't have the serve, forehand, or defensive skills to beat Federer. Kyrgios does.
Not for 2017. Nick is #1Isner, Karlovic and Raonic have better serves.

On hard courts and likely grass.So kyrgios/Zverev appear to be the guys to watch after Dimitrov has returned to the mug life.
The match between Kyrgios and Goffin tonight was quite amazing. Goffin came out on a mission and played the best I've ever seen him play by far; just insane that he was Kyrgios dominant on serve coming into the tiebreaker in the first set. Meanwhile Kygrios faced a ton of break points and was under an absolute ton of pressure from the crisp hitting Goffin who was pressing Kyrgios as much as he could and often guessing right on first serve. Goffin played far better than Djokovic in his two matches with Kyrgios. It was an amazing tiebreaker by Kyrgios who fought back from a break down and also played roulette on 2nd serve with a massive 134 mph ace. Goffin had Nick under immense pressure. Goffin saved one set point on Kyrgios's serve, but then finally made a mistake in his pressing of Kyrgios with a deep forehand UE for the set. For Kyrgios to win that set took a warrior's mentality (Kyrgios not too expressive with Karlovic match either which was all business due to Ivo playing quite well.)I agree, it's exciting because of the tension, it's just that the guys aren't too expressive at the moment. Glad to be watching though.
And yet, last time Fed played him, Z won. You are underestimating Z's current level. + sure he has the serve even though KG's is even better.Zverev doesn't have the serve, forehand, or defensive skills to beat Federer. Kyrgios does.
