It is to soon to tell, but very very quickly Roger could be ended and GOAT erased as he has not even gotten there yet.
That is what happens when you count your eggs before they are hached LOL
i think Joker will win the us open
wow. one match and it's the end of an era?
I like how people jump all over Federer after one loss. How many times exactly has Federer lost against Djokovic? I think after a few months and at least one Slam to decide whether Federer is gone or not.
I think he is not.
Are you kidding? Federer's gonna break Sampras' record in 2008. Greatest of all time and that's that.With the rise of Nadal and Djokovic, the days of Federer winning 3 slams per year are most likely over. 1 - 2 per year will be the norm.
Federer better be careful to keep his number 1 ranking so he doesn't have to play both Nadal and Djokovic in the same tournament.
in my opinion we have the King of Grass, Clay, and (what seems to be) the King of Hard Court in the top 3 now.
Federer, Nadal and Djokovic
We all should said thats the end of Roddick instead.
Like Nadal, he's beaten Fed on his own terms.
When has Nadal ever beaten Fed on his own terms?
Watch the French Open lately?
That's what you consider on Fed's own terms??? Trading groundstrokes from the baseline on slow red clay. That makes no sense at all.
Maybe you misinterpreted what I said? I think it makes plenty of sense. Rafa beat Fed pretty handily by sticking to his usual style of play (like Djokovic today)...hence, Rafa's own terms.
Yes, sorry I did misinterpret. However, rafa's own terms happen to be Fed's worst terms. What Joker did today to me was so much more impressive - beating Fed on a hardcourt by outplaying him in basically every aspect of the game, rather than simply outlasting him a la Nadal or Canas.
Lets be honest, to see scrunchty face lose was fun. He is NOT loved, despite the bs charming Gaulois patois. The tennis crowd is tired of him, off with his head.

i disagree, federer is a three time champ at flushing, and this was the first time hes lost in a final on us soil in a long time. before indian wells federer hadnt lost in the us for like 3 years. Federer also holds the most consecutive wins on hardcourt as well as grass. people forget how good federer is on hardcourts. but im not taking anything from novak, hes for sure the 3rd best player in the world, which i thought after wimbledon. he will definatly challange for the us open.

Wow, bitter much? You can't seem to stop talking about the guy (in a Federer-related thread, no less). Did he bone your girlfriend or something? Sheesh.
one loss and all of a sudden the end of an era?
we're probably going to hear the same thing when rafa finally loses one match on clay.
Then i should said thats the end of American era instead.
Yup, I totally agreed with u.I'm deathly bored with his matches unless he's playing Nadal (and now Djokovic). He usually beats players so easily and so swiftly, it gets downright boring to watch.
Now, with some more competition, maybe his matches will be more interesting to watch.
Uh, I don't get it. Are you implying that all of America had their way with your girl? That's some loose broad you got there then.
I didn't said coz of my girl instead but what i mean american tennis are going to end due to too strong challenger and monopolised by the european players.
I still think that your girl got boned by all the Americans.
