[Deleted member 733170]

Come on Roger

 

[Feather]

0-30 Roger

Only thing i'm watching for today is how Federer looks and to see if his magical recovery happened again the same way it happened at Wimbledon.

I dont recall him being injured in any way during Wimbledon and also he did not exhaust himself nearly as much so this is an odd post.

 

[Krish0608]

Rage against the dying of the light.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Federer needs to get first serves in!!!

 

[Yugram]

Ajmo Nole!

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Amazing defence from Djokovic!

 

[Tenacity]

Right into the net that forehand..

 

[Feather]

2 BPs for Novak

 

[Standaa]

on one hand it’s nice to watch Fed’s GS match with zero expectations

 

[GoldenMasters]

Already 40 15

 

[Krish0608]

I wish and pray he doesn't get triple bageled or something.

Zeus help us!

 

[junior74]

This will probably get ugly.

In the Wimbledon Semi final he was breathing hard and possibly showing some fatigue and there were questions how he would come out against Djokovic in the final. People thinking he woul be swept aside much in the same people were predicting today but instead he came out like a gazelle and as you well know, took him all the way showing little to no fatigue. So my comment was in reference to this and if the same would happen today.

 

[Tenacity]

5 min game to start of the match.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Hold your damn serve!!

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

Roger playing hockey

 

[MeatTornado]

Already feels like 2016. Can only win points off aces.

 

[GoldenMasters]

Go Djokovic, dont hit errors and you got this

 

[BeatlesFan]

Fed still moving gingerly to his FH, he's not all there.

Lol i dont recall that, there is a huge difference here and even if it was agaidnt nadal that match wasnt nearly as exhausting as sny of his matches here nor do i recall any mtos.

 

[Yugram]

Botterer with his usual stuff. No more hurt back?

 

[NaomiKonjuhPotapova]

Nole has fans in Australia!

 

[Zetty]

Dam I like that Fed Uniqlo kit

 

[Deleted member 733170]

This would be a miracle if Fed wins

No way is this similar to wimbledon on any account. Federer beat Nadal in 4 sets and looked physically fine doing it. Federer was clearly hampered in the Sangdren match.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

This is brutal by Federer. Just struggling to get on board.

 

[The Green Mile]

This is just baseline slaughter from Novak in this opening game.... Fed doing well to hang in here somehow, riding his 1st serve. Three aces....

 

[AceSalvo]

Beautiful serving helps Roger get a game. Sad part is, that game took for ages.

 

[Tshooter]

Gezzerer.

 

[Feather]

Roger holds finally!

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Djoko put big pressure there already, credit to Fed for the hold though!

 

[BeatlesFan]

Fed three aces in first game.

 

[Terenigma]

Federer holds but boy that was a long hold, if Djokovic makes him do that every game then he could be in trouble.

 

[Im(moral) Winner]

First game won. Moral victory.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Finally!!! He has to find a way and break early.

 

[Standaa]

think I heard more cheer for Novak than Roger in that opening game lol..

 

[Otacon]

1-0

We did iiiiiiiiiiiit !

 

[weakera]

Why on earth hasn't an all world athlete like Novak Djokovic had lasik? Why would he even be dealing with contact lenses.

 

[The Green Mile]

Win predictor only giving Djokovic a 65% chance of winning?

Yeah if ppl were worried it's the usual oh god fed is toast against Novak but i dont recall anyone saying he was breathing hard so its just weird what op is trying to say about Wimbledon

 

[GoldenMasters]

Damn Novak will lose

 

[Yugram]

Federer’s back is sooooo injured that he serves 3 aces per game.

 

[Benoit Kyrgios]

Imagine if Roger had two forehands. Hed never lose to DJokvoci

 

[joekapa]

Fed is going to have serve better than Wimby 2019 final to get a sniff at anything. So far, no sign of that.

 

[MasturB]

Match is over. Im happy regardless of outcome.

 

[Deleted member 733170]

Life in the old dog yet

 

[Paulreedsmith]

LOL have you seen the debris flying off the balls sometimes when they show replays?

These balls suck. LIGMA!

 

[Standaa]

15-30, half a chance
