than yesterday's final? Wow I swear it seemed like he couldn't hit the broad side of a barn in yesterdays final. Quite a shame because that was the difference in the game.

Wrong.
Delpo Served under 25% for the first 1 and a half sets... as you conveniently forgot to mention.
Delpo outplayed Fed. Get over it.
delpo served under 25%??? look at the bull sh1t that is coming out of your mouth. Look at the stats, he served 54% the first set. and Rog served about 41% IIRC.
Lol 25%, this aint the WTA son.
The bottom line was his serve sucked more than Federer's for much of the match. Delpo didn't even show up to the match until the middle of the second set.
Verdict: Federer outplayed (again, get over it)
yeah, which is why federer won the first, and when del potro started serving better, he starting winning?
The serve mattered. the worse server in each set lost that set. Get over it.
Delpo didn't outplay Fed. Both sets delpo won before the 5th had to go to tiebreakers. Fed just served very badly. Both had a ton of unforced errors. Serve was the difference. More a matter of getting the good serves at the right time. This time they just did not come.
I don't see how anyone can say that Fed's serve wasn't the key factor, from his side, in him losing. That's under his control. If he serves well, he wins the second set after breaking Del Potro. Then it's basically over. But his serve was awful all day, and when Del Potro started playing really well, it caught up to him. He still made it a 5-setter, though. 2 tie-breaks. That's clearly where Federer normally wins; his serve was the big factor in the tie-breaks too, of course.
But like he said, it isn't possible to play your best every time. A few years ago, he didn't play his best, but he beat Djokovic in the USO final. At the FO SF, he gutted out a win over Del Potro after a bad start. Now Del Potro gutted out one over him after a bad start. He certainly earned it; he won, and thus was the better player overall in the final.
Wrong.

DelPo served @ 54% in the first set, whilst Fed served at 41%
DelPo served @ 60% in the second set, whilst Fed served at 44%
You should probably stick to some real stats there Bud =p The only set Fed outserved DelPo was the third (61% to 60%). All credit to Delpo for serving so well during the last 2 sets though, Fed was languishing at 53% and 54% whilst DelPo got up to 74% and 78% respectively.
I'm not sure I'd say Roger served worse than he ever has before, but it was definitely an area of his game that cost him dearly yesterday.
It was obvious that Fed starting serving badly when Delpo's ground game picked up pace. Therefore, Delpo's playing forced Federer to tighten up and serve poorly... since he knew the groundtroke return that would come on a weak serve. Stop with the excuses.
Lol! Thanks for correcting me. It just FELT like 25%. He was 1 for 9 on first serves after game 3
Even so... 54% is also pathetic.

"felt" like 25% = biased Fed hater. Period. Get over it.

Truth is,it doesn't matter how it FELT for you as obviously your feeling is way off mark.
And no 54% isn't pathetic and even if it is what does that make Fed's 40% then? You're so full of it.
I only agree on you that overall Delpo did outplay Fed,just like he outplayed everyone else this tourney.
Fed won the first set 6-3... were you not watching? Delpo played like total crap and gifted Federer the first set and half of the second. It's Federer's issue if he can't close it out
Can i get you a tissue?

I don't consider anyone to have gifted anyone anything.It was a close match with better player winning in the end,that's the whole story as far as I'm concerned.And yes I did watch the whole match.
Oh, come on. Delpo was 1 for 9 on first serves after his first two service games. He was playing and moving like crap... while the fedfans claimed fed was playing like a god - go back and look at the other thread of the actual match.
I don't think Delpo played like crap in any set of the final so we'll agree to disagree.
Fed was serving like....me! That will get you nowhere.

Delpo simply outplayed Fed over the course of 5 sets.
End of story :grin:
He sure seemed to be all smiles in the second set when he played that shot behind his back and smiled about it. Delpo did not like that at all.
it feels like you are sad... very sad... dont worry be happy...
Federer really wasn't himself in the final which is really weird. I have been having nightmares about it ever since it ended.
nope, difference in game was that Potro did not cruble like Fed thought he would. Delpo did not serve that well either my friend. Just spinning shots in to get into the point is hardly serving well. Just accept the fact that Delpo's depth hurt Fed...and his heart and will were huge factors.
No, the serve did not cost Fed the match..the opponant did. He had 5 sets of tennis to win...
He sure seemed to be all smiles in the second set when he played that shot behind his back and smiled about it. Delpo did not like that at all. No, at that point, you could tell Fed thought it was going to be business as usual and that his opponant would just go away.
He wasn't playing those cute little behind the back shots in set 4 and 5....wasn't as relaxed...not as comfortable. I think he regretted hitting that shot because he knew it pissed Delpo off and deep down I know that Fed was not trying to be condescending...but it looked that way.
nope.....don't argue now, go away if you need to but don't argue....in a 3 out of 5 set match both players have opportunities to win....Fed played off the charts good in the first set. Delpo got his feet under him and out gutted Fed. Live with it. He will.
