well he is a legend and was a dominant No. 1 player. Are they rubbing in the fact that our legend #1's Sampras & Agassi should have spent more time mentoring our promising teens like he has maximized De Minaur? and Millman when he plays Fed.

No, the cam man seems has an obsession with the guy.

NoleFam · Jan 24, 2020

Wow. Federer guts it out. I missed most of it. I'm at work in the am and these guys just wrapped it up.

Most disgusting choke of all time

abmk · Jan 24, 2020

jeez ! Millman was playing great in the TB till 8-5. Fed held his cool, Millman became nervous and 5 points in a row for Fed ..

MP Millman!!!

DUDE.. I read this at 6-4.

AND I WONDERED IF YOU DIDNT KNOW IF IT WAS A SUPER TIEBREAK

OR WHETHER MY STREAM WAS DELAYED

so I stoppped refreshing the forum.

and Millman got to 8-4, and I was sure it was over and you were calling MP at 9-4.

AND FEDERER WON!!!!

JESUS CHRIST WHAT A RUSH.

mightyrick · Jan 24, 2020

Absolutely love the 10 point tiebreaker in the 5th. They need to do it in all sets, though. It would make the tiebreaks so much more exciting. There would be far less tanking mid-match.

Terry Tibbs · Jan 24, 2020

Milkman would have only lost in the next round anyway. He's a loser

Fed could still win from 5-8 down.

MeatTornado · Jan 24, 2020

I could only scoreboard watch the TB.

Was it really a choke from Millman? Was he missing any easy shots? Or did he just come back down to earth / Fed raised his level for a few points?

skip1969 · Jan 24, 2020

Well . . . give it to Fed for stringing together the last six points . . .

but let's get real about Fed's title chances.

Nole14_15NoPressure · Jan 24, 2020

pls djokovic, obliterate this fraud in the semis

He’s the GOAT for a reason! Amazing.

cronus · Jan 24, 2020

Felt like it was a competition between Millman vs Fed on who sucks more, and now we have a winner.

Arvind Sridhar · Jan 24, 2020

And I am jumping in my house like a madman....This was an immense escape almost to the level of Andy Dufresne....Holy moly

TennisFan3 · Jan 24, 2020

Congratulations to Federer and his fans. Even at close to 39 he still loves the game.

For Fed's sake,I hope he loses before a slaughter in the SF vs Novak.

Still he is at least in the tournament. But the #21 looks FAR FAR away. At least not until we get to London.

weakera · Jan 24, 2020

The Milkman doesn't deliver on Friday's.

icedevil0289 · Jan 24, 2020

fed looks like he aged 10 years

Tennease · Jan 24, 2020

Ommmmmgggggg

What a hell of a match

Can someone ban this troll already?

You want to tell me it isn't a choke? Go ban yourself, Djokovic fanboy.

Breakpointerer · Jan 24, 2020

Can't believe it lol. I hope he never plays John Millman again.

MasturB · Jan 24, 2020

Fred always trying to break our hearts.

Don't be stupid. First to 10 in every 6-6 set is a ludicrous suggestion

Congrats to Fed fans, they deserve this after so many 40-15s.

lol don't be salty now. Under real rules the match would have gone until Fed broke Millman for the match

****KKKK!!!!!!!!!!

Federer with the humour even after a 4 hour mammoth effort. What a guy.

Amazing how much Fed has improved as a player since last year's USO.

Im(moral) Winner · Jan 24, 2020

Fed fans right now

McGradey · Jan 24, 2020

Federer honestly looks like he has a fever. He looked on the brink of passing out for half of that match.

Djokovic2011 · Jan 24, 2020

Lol, you have to give credit to Federer - even when he's not playing anywhere near his best he still fights tooth and nail for every point, even at the age of 38 and after everything he's achieved. Also now won 100 matches at both the AO and Wimbledon.

Incredible longevity.

Hitman · Jan 24, 2020

Looks like the milk went sour being out of the fridge for over 4 hours.

Yugram · Jan 24, 2020

Fucsovics beats this Federer in straights.

This will wake him up. He didn't play a warm up this year since no Hopman. First two matches was just getting back in on cruise. Millman tested him on everything today and while he didn't pass every test he knows now what to focus on with the team the next 2 days before Fucs.

icedevil0289 · Jan 24, 2020

yes roger talk about tactical changes, cuz idk what you were doing out there

There were a LOT of ues in that tiebreak. Millman strung together a couple of winners early . . . but it was mostly nerves out there. It honestly could have gone either way.

he's going to hit the wall against novak

ACE of Hearts · Jan 24, 2020

Federer didn’t do himself any favors by going 4 hours and 7 minutes against the milkman. Better hope he has some energy in the tank.
