2019 ATP Miami - QF: GOAT vs Big Kevin

[Night Slasher]

mmm, sounds delicious

Or like a torture, depends how you look at it.

 

[PeteD]

How many hours is it Miami-Jo'burg?

 

[Deleted member 763024]

Federer has been brilliant, but Kev is not having his best evening so far...

All I see is Roger putting pressure and not letting Big K settle in.

 

[Thundergod]

I'm starting to feel a little bad for Anderson. He's completely collapsing. This is starting to look like the Nadal-Berdych beatdown at AO this year.

 

[Legend of Borg]

when was the last time Fed double bageled someone?

2005 against gaudio?

Older Zverev I think.

 

[MeatTornado]

Fed's been absolutely cracking his forehand tonight.

2013 against Mischa Zverev in Halle.

Let's not forgot 2014 WTF where Fed decided to donate a game to Mury.

We should be talking about Miami-Helsinki

he's got some sweet timing on it

i can hear that prostaff destroying mugs with every swing all the way from my room

 

[-NN-]

OMG he won a game

 

[tennisjedi]

No bagel.
There's still a chance for a breadstick though.

 

[Legend of Borg]

anderson's basically won the match

gg

 

[Tennisgods]

Absolutely, no doubt. Anderson looks like he’s in a nightmare...

And with that he’s finally on the board%!

 

[icedevil0289]

i will quit tennis if federer manages to get to the final only to lose to isner.

 

[-NN-]

Fed hasn't been having brilliant evenings in quite a while. I'll take it.

 

[AceSalvo]

OMG he won a game

KAndy looked up to the skies after that game. Felt kind of important for sure.

i'm still salty about that

 

[mikeeeee]

on a side note, how comes stanimal's yonex is so damn expensive?

i want a new racket but 209 euros? ffs man

They don't make his Yonex anymore. Luckily I found one on these forums!

Also, racquet prices increase every year it seems

It’s a thing of beauty. Let’s enjoy it while it’s here.

wait, so he doesn't use the vcore pro 97?

yikes

 

[ohiostate124]

Patrick McEnroe suggesting Fed donated that last game on purpose.

 

[chjtennis]

Roger is not letting his pride dictating his brain today. Rather than trying to outgun the powerful South African, he is mixing it up well and putting KA out of position. That's what he should have done last year at SW19 as well.

basically servebotterer

I think the difference here is that the slow court naturally put Fed in that mindset already.

 

[Nostradamus]

I dont' think that's gonna help kevin however

That Cinci final was made of nightmares.

 

[Legend of Borg]

That Cinci final was made of nightmares.

he was letting djovak get the last missing piece of his collection

unfortunately it was kinda like letting thanos get his final infinity stone and then USO and AO happened

 

[underground]

Get the double break please I want this match to be sealed off with no buts.

 

[Deleted member 763024]

NOW kandy missing makeable shots...

 

[MeatTornado]

Get the double break please I want this match to be sealed off with no buts.

Surprisingly botched the easy volley for break point

 

[Legend of Borg]

was that anderson's wife?

she looks like a dark haired jennifer aniston

 

[chjtennis]

That volley was a bad miss.

 

[Deleted member 763024]

Roger lost some concentration there. Gotta keep the foot on the pedal otherwise things can turn fast.

 

[chjtennis]

Yup, she is. With such a wife and over $15m career prize money earned, I'm in no position to sympathize the guy ever.

 

[mike danny]

The good news is that Fedr at least gets some returning practice ahead of a potential final against Isner.

Assuming he wins today and then beats Shapo.

 

[icedevil0289]

keep holding fed,and we finally might get fed/shapo

 

[Legend of Borg]

keep holding fed,and we finally might get fed/shapo

stop pls i'm getting wimbledon PTSD again

 

[Deleted member 763024]

15-30

Roger serve

 

[MeatTornado]

Oh god no, 2nd Setter has arrived

 

[underground]

urgh

 

[mike danny]

Damn.

 

[Tennisgods]

Kev’s got his eye in now. Monstering the ball.

 

[Legend of Borg]

IT'S HAPPENING

 

[MeatTornado]

That missed put-away volley from a couple games ago looming large now.

 

[AceSalvo]

That volley was a bad miss.

could cost him the match...

 

[chjtennis]

Shapo's lefty serve will give Rogi a lot of trouble as well.

Looks like Fed has decided to take a little extra return practice. That was a cheap give away service game.
