No matter who Roger plays, where Roger plays, or at what age, if he doesn't win a match, it's always him mucking it up. Apparently.
I Am by no means a federer fan
And yes he could have played better,he ****ed up cuz he could have done better,of course nadal plays good enough to win

Push the ball back... moonball, moonball zzzzz bring on the faster court seasons where technique wins over grinding.

Funny that as the break point came from a Rafa forehand flattened to Rogers forehand, and that's why Fed was lost.

Rafa mixing it up well today.

Seriously, why did people here think Federer had a chance? All the talk about "Nadal not beaten Federer for 5 years, Federer has a bigger racquet, Federer using different tactics". This is Nadal at RG, Federer always gets destroyed by Nadal.
Look up the word "destroyed" in the dictionary and come back to me.

Horrible way to lose that second set. You're up 40-0 on your own serve and lose the game and the set and with that the match.

Already looking forward to the next semi, should be more exciting or at least less predictable regarding who the match winner will be.

Djokovic - Nadal RG final would be awesome. I don't think Djokovic played his best in Rome and probably that match was not a good measuring stick for Djokovic's capabilities on clay vs. Nadal.

what i dont get is in that game he got to 40-0 with variety and then thinks he can duke it out from the baseline and gets broke, things like that are frustrating but apparently mentionign that is a no no for some

It looked pretty bad earlier. Dunno if it's settled down now or it just has that appearance because the players have settled into the conditions. My impression is that it has settled a bit.

Good. I wish it would stay that way but the forecast called for it to get worse this afternoon.

Yes purely with mental strength Fed can overcome all the extra qualities Nadal has on clay.


Absolutely FRIKKING HILARIOUS.


Mental strength is overrated. Skills win.

Why are Fed fans so negative here? The match is very close, considering most of his own fans were saying they weren't expecting him to win, hes giving us a good match.

Y'all need to remember hes playing the 2 time defending champ on clay.

Rafa is such a warrior. He's 2 sets up and still holds his head when he misses a good a chance to break Fed there.

He has more faith in Fed than a lot of his fans do!

Nice hold Roger!
