2019 WTF 1/2 Final:Roger Federer vs. Stefanos Tistsipas

[NoleFam]

Great performance from Tsitsipas. Such muted applause for him after a great performance. How about a little love for a new star of the game who played his heart out? l'll be glad when this event moves to another location. Federer didn't play his best today and could never find that spark.

 

[Terry Tibbs]

Just don't understand how he can play as well as he did against Djokovic and then come out and play like this in the next match. Can anybody explain?

 

[maratha_warrior]

Wow Roger just celebrated his opponents error on really important point in the match, how could he?

just like 20,000 crowds celebrate for every Novak error.. and shout and jeer at him ,so that he makes more mistakes .

 

[FedrMatt]

Absolutely pathetic from Federer

It’s legitimately unhealthy for me to continue to support Federer.

 

[Yugram]

i think we will now unite and cheer for Thiem?

Absolutely.

 

[KINGROGER]

Peak Tsitsipas too good for peak Fed today.

 

[stringertom]

Bookcaseerer season...started and ended with losses to Shoesypas.

He now has a chance to graduate from NextGen champion to WTF champion.

Nice bounce back from 3 hours of work yesterday!

 

[MeatTornado]

i think we will now unite and cheer for Thiem?

I know i am

 

[3fees]

Congrats to tsitsipas blnt federer The Greek to the finals,, he saved something like 11 out of 12 break points and sealed the match with an ace, wd.

Cheers

[TheAssassin]

Impressed by Tsitsipas. He was going through bad form after losing that marathon against Stan at the French Open but he is back on track now.

Would bet on him winning the final whoever he faces...

 

[tennistiger]

Again such an undeserved loss for Federer after the Wimbledon Final....

 

[romeo8880]

Just don't understand how he can play as well as he did against Djokovic and then come out and play like this in the next match. Can anybody explain?

Easily. I don’t know how people can’t understand. He’s almost 40 years old his level fluctuates from day to day.

 

[acintya]

Humble Austrian to take o2. please

 

[ibbi]

It's funny how this pup can play against a crowd entirely in favour of his opponent without having a self entitlement inspired meltdown.

 

[HetTheGreaterer]

@Breakpointerer in full flow

 

[Terry Tibbs]

Tsitsipas is a whole different challenge here.

I'm not really sure how there can be a bigger challenge than serving against the best returner in the history of the game.

 

[Mike Sams]

1/12 BPs! Great stuff!
That should go in the book alongside 4/23 BPs and 1/17 BPs

 

[onyxrose81]

Just don't understand how he can play as well as he did against Djokovic and then come out and play like this in the next match. Can anybody explain?

He’s 38 and not playing someone he loathes.
Stef had a lot of help but I’m still happy for him. Shoegate and weirdness aside, he’s actually my fave young player right now.

 

[robert.s]

Absolutely pathetic from Federer

It’s legitimately unhealthy for me to continue to support Federer.

Just consider him a clear underdog against most top 10 players like I do and you'll be fine. Occasionally even surprised by a match like the one vs Djokovic.

The really bad ones are like the one in Wimbledon this year.

 

[StrongRule]

Let's hope Thiem takes the title. It will feel too weird if Nadal will end up beating the winner of the tournament.

 

[La Grande]

Fed looked liked he wanted to get the hell out of there at the end haha

 

[Fridge]

Again such an undeserved loss for Federer after the Wimbledon Final....

Nah Stef played better and Fed was awful

 

[Djokovic2011]

Tsitsipas was truly superb today. I understand Fed fans must be feeling gutted right now but sometimes you really have to give credit where it's due and concede that the other guy was the better player on the day, just like we Djokovic fans had to do the other night.

 

[BeatlesFan]

Sorry. I have to.
15-40

For people with no intellectual gifts or the ability to have an intelligent conversation, this is the default answer.

 

[Doctor/Lawyer Red Devil]

Impressed by Tsitsipas. He was going through bad form after losing that marathon against Stan at the French Open but he is back on track now.

Would bet on him winning the final whoever he faces...

Zverev defending this thing would be awesome.

 

[Mike Sams]

I'm not really sure how there can be a bigger challenge than serving against the best returner in the history of the game.

Tsitsipas beat Djokovic in Shanghai a few weeks ago too.

 

[MajesticMoose]

Break point conversion once again decimated Fedr. But Stefanos was playing unreal.

 

[maratha_warrior]

Great performance from Stefanos.. Better player on the Day .

 

[icedevil0289]

We won't be hearing morons cheering missed 1st and 2nd serves tomorrow. What a bummer eh...

HELLAS!

people were cheering fed's df on thursday, its just because fed has more fans they are more vocal but im so over the policing of sports fans. like maybe people cheer errors because it means their fav won a point, i s2g tennis fandom is ridiculous at times. you would think these fans went up to a player and shouted obscenities directly to their face or something, just rme

[Otacon]

Old Fed did the best he could, I'm proud of him.

 

[romeo8880]

He played horrible. If he plays the final like he played today he will be destroyed. He barely beat a C level fed

 

[FedrMatt]

I cannot stand tsitsipas either

This is an awful loss

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Zverev defending this thing would be awesome.

Ignored.

 

[Terenigma]

How many questions are they going to ask him about Federer? lol

 

[I Am Finnish]

bravo το αγόρι που ξέρει πώς να πολεμήσει

 

[The Blond Blur]

Timmy to save tennis now eh @Meles

 

[Doctor/Lawyer Red Devil]

Ignored.

See you tomorrow again, Ann.

 

[KINGROGER]

I quite like Tsitsipas interview there, very cool.

 

[NoleFam]

He played horrible. If he plays the final like he played today he will be destroyed. He barely beat a C level fed

Federer didn't play well but Tsitsipas sure did. I would say Tsitsipas didn't serve that well today though compared to his other matches.

 

[PeoplesChamp]

just like 20,000 crowds celebrate for every Novak error.. and shout and jeer at him ,so that he makes more mistakes .

Salt.

 

[Yugram]

Old Fed did the best he could, I'm proud of him.

So am I! Chum Jetze!

 

[Fridge]

Fed crowd was again a disgrace but nice to see Stefanos shut them up

 

[I Am Finnish]

1/12

AO 19 QF 2.0

 

[Terry Tibbs]

Federer looked 10yrs younger against Djokovic. He looked his age today, sluggish and sloppy. Cant be tired as the Djokovic match was short and he's had a days rest.

 

[Tiki-Taka]

This is perfect actually. Federer at least did his job two days ago. It will be great to see one of the younger guys winning this tournament for yet another year.

 

[NoleFam]

Zverev defending this thing would be awesome.

I really want Thiem versus Tsits. I think they have been the best players here this year.

 

[PeoplesChamp]

Federer did what he came to do and that was send Djokovic home.

See ya next year, no?

 

[icedevil0289]

just like 20,000 crowds celebrate for every Novak error.. and shout and jeer at him ,so that he makes more mistakes .

stop this. novak got support on thursday. sick of the victim complex by novak fans. these narratives are getting tired and frankly innacurate especially because i can get none of you guys were there. its funny how people talk about hostile crowds, you want to know what a hostile crowd is, go to a soccer match wher people are throwing racist slurs against a person of color. novak will never experience that.

 

[NatF]

I'm warming to Tsits personality wise. Not too bothered about the loss but the manner of it was disgusting lol.
