Worth a 1k bet that you know.
Sorry what has that got to do with this thread? Wimbledon is grass and it is about Federer.
What does this mean?
Djoker would be favored if they met head to head right now at USO.
Why are you spamming? This thread is about Wimbledon and Federer. Scroll up and check the title.
I honestly feel if Federer got Djokovic at W he would do to Djokovic what Nadal did to him at FO 2020.
You on wrong thread bud.
Glad to have helped.
Wrong thread fella
You a betting man?
he will be 39 at this year wimbledon
It has nothing to do with Federer being the greater grass court player, he's always been greater than Novak on grass but has lost 3 Wimbledon finals to him. Why? Because he's been a mental choker against Novak pretty much since 2010 in BO5. It doesn't matter how physically fit Roger would be a presumptive 2021 Wimbledon final, the mental scars are what would determine the outcome. I would favor him over Nadal at any slam besides RG, but obviously not Djokovic. He'll be 10 days shy of 40 years old when Wimbledon is next played, he's not beating anyone easily in a slam final at that age unless his opponent would be injured.
And 10 days shy of being 40. Essentially 40, let's not nit pick.
Being 40-15 with 2 match points while serving for the match is not "7.7%" chance. Federer was 99.99% sure Wimbledon champion last year at 40-15 and only a god-like passing shot from Djokovic saved the Serbian. I bet 99% of tennis viewers already assumed Federer was the champion when he was serving at 40-15. What happened later is a miracle.
Federer was a mental giant in the ATP 2019 finals. Don't underestimate the old man. He might have a last hurrah in him.
For federer I do. I feel he is gonna struggle to get back to that high level consistently. Nadal and Djokovic are still a bit younger than him, which is significant. They currently still used to winning too and have their pet slams to rely on. Fed doesn’t have a pet slam to rely on as Wimbledon is not a lock for him like it used to be when he was younger and dominated it. He’s vulnerable pretty much anywhere now.
doesn't mean much. we're in a brave new era now where records mean little and precedent means even less
sure. but if djokovic gets knocked out it's his to lose
I believe it every new tournament. Memory of a goldfish, I tell ya.
You are simplifying it too much, that wasn't just one shot what let him to survive. Djokovic delivered decent returns with no error four times in a row under an enormous pressure and played outstanding bh-fh sequence precisely into the corners at 40-40. 120 seconds of a rock solid defense and counterdefense.
That depends on his level coming back to the Tour. Has anyone seen him play lately?
I think the majority of Fed fans had in their minds the USO SF of 2011 at that point and even the match against Delpo at IW 2018, so they didn't assumed it was over.
