2019 Indian Wells F - [4] Federer vs [7] Thiem

[AnOctorokForDinner]

Old mug can't win big matches like ever.

 

[augustobt]

I can't believe Federer gave this away. Again. **** off

 

[Next Gen Volleys]

I have very little doubt Thiem serves this out next. A very deserved win. Just amazing work out there today.
Sad for Roger though, considering I'm a pretty blatant fanboy.

 

[WhiskeyEE]

I think Fed has been bad from beginning to end today. Especially on big points.

BP Conversion:
Thiem 3/4
Federer 2/11

 

[icedevil0289]

also im sorry thiem winning 1 masters great, but as part of hte lost generation i doubt much is going to come of it.

 

[Deon Sanders]

This one is done and dusted

 

[Thundergod]

Fed incorrectly trying to play a dropshot at a crucial point in a match... What else is new?

 

[Otacon]

Please buy me a rope, this is too much ...

 

[TennisFan3]

Novak so happy right now

Novak doesn't care about IW honestly. He's gunning for the 20 slam record, and getting past that.

 

[BeatlesFan]

Fed has completely bottled it.

Again... once the match started so late, the odds shifted massively to Thiem's favor. The difference between a hot day and a heavy night is huge at IW. It becomes impossible to play aggressive tennis at night.

 

[metsman]

Watching Fed's FH these days is if like Pete's serve turned into Nishikori's late in his career.

 

[TennisLBC]

Thiem is playing out of his freaking head right now. A totally different level.

Nice call.

Thiem has stepped up. I predict Fed in 3; but won't disappointed if Thiem wins.

 

[wangs78]

Fed is mentally done. When he makes terrible decisions like those two straight drop shots when a easy FH winner should have sufficed shows he doesn’t believe he can win.

 

[TennisFan3]

I hope people realize what a huge game Thiem has. He will win 5+ slams easily and become #1.

No way. He still hasn't come close to winning a slam.

 

[BeatlesFan]

Novak doesn't care about IW honestly. He's gunning for the 20 slam record, and getting past that.

Last time I checked, he lost last week here. Why's he coming up?

 

[Tennis_Hands]

It ain't over.

 

[Tennisgods]

Wow. This is so different to last year; Fed has done very little wrong in this third set, Thiem has earned this.

 

[acintya]

Can you believe it....

i surely can

 

[icedevil0289]

@icedevil0289 now you can start panicking.

ohhh ive gone way past panicking to straight up annoyed. two years in arow that this tournament atleast on the mens side pissed me off. i guesss i should be happy he doesnt have any mps

 

[The Green Mile]

Thiem deuce serve out wide, time and time again. Working well.

 

[-NN-]

After 0-30 a few games back Thiem went into apeshit mode and Federer did well to hang. Now Thiem just needs to keep his head for one more game.

 

[MasturB]

Props to the crowd for being a lot more respectful in the final.

 

[Federer and Del Potro]

I'm not even salty. HOPEFUL that this Thiem can show up in slams. Add some damn intrigue to these things.

@Meles Diamond Age is upon us

 

[BeatlesFan]

Meles called this!!

 

[TenS_Ace]

FFS Thiem should have pulled a WALK OVER, he's unbelievably PATHETIC !!

I'm SORRY Thiem

 

[Pablo1989]

Impressive Thiem today, really impressive!!

 

[WhiskeyEE]

Wow. This is so different to last year; Fed has done very little wrong in this third set, Thiem has earned this.

He has served well. I don't see what else.

 

[TripleATeam]

Novak so happy right now

Novak isn't the best at IW even if Federer loses here on account of the extra finals.

 

[acintya]

IDEMO

 

[TheIntrovert]

Oh well. As @Nadal_Django said. It’s only a Mickey Mouse title

 

[BrokenGears]

Two match points

 

[AnOctorokForDinner]

Fedr wins a tight match = disgusting choke as usual, weakeraerer reaping the muggery
Fedr loses a tight match = proper opposition exposed mental midgetry once again

 

[icedevil0289]

stupid slow high bouncing hc.

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

Thiem wins

 

[NatF]

That return lol.

 

[Deon Sanders]

****ing ****

 

[VaporDude95]

Disgusting

 

[Red Rick]

Thiem lost QF in BA and 1st round in Rio.

wHAt iS hE dOiNg

 

[BeatlesFan]

Boy, Dom's arrived! This may really help him against the big guns on clay.

 

[Sudacafan]

Another choke. Stubborn choke.

 

[acintya]

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU GO TO WAR AGAINST ME!


THIEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Steve0904]

Very nice 3rd set. Well done Thiem! Well done.

 

[heninfan99]

All hail the Austrian Prince!

 

[RS92]

Vamoooos

So happy for Thiem

 

[Rubens]

Oh man oh God oh man oh God oh man oh God

 

[EloQuent]

Good for Thiem, nabbing a big one, and on hard!

 

[Federer and Del Potro]

Feds chokes not only reserved for Delpo anymore

 

[VaporDude95]

I’m officially done.

What utter twattery

 

[Krish0608]

Deserved to win. Congrats Domi!
