A016: Roger Federer VERSUS David Goffin for a place in the Quarter Finals

[Crayola Oblongata]

I do think Goffin is a good looking guy.

Go on the Fed!

 

[Zodd]

He suddenly became quite annoyed half way through the 3rd set, and then lost something. I'm not kidding either or looking into things too much. It was shown on live TTEEEEEVEEEEE and he was pissed. Nobody knows what he said, from those posting in this thread anyway.

hmm, perhaps we'll know after the interviews

 

[Doctor/Lawyer Red Devil]

That was quick...

 

[killerboi2]

Another nothing player of this era gets owned. At least the majority of people (except the odd weirdo) can't even pretend this guy played good like that clown Simon earlier.

Fed seems a sensitive soul. I wonder what it was? Oh well, closed out. He'll have 1.5 days to yell at himself in a mirror.

 

[Zodd]

yes - courier!

 

[Deanjam]

How/where would you rate Fed's performance tonight?

Goat had fun.

 

[Fedinkum]

Hey, that was my Cringe gif on the Bouchard's handshaking thread!!!

 

[SpinToWin]

Fed wins 6/2 6/1 6/4. Highlights galore. Everything clicked. A bit of a loss in focus late in the 3rd, but no matter. Thank you for the fast match Roger.

Thoughts on Courier's short crop? Think it looks good.

 

[Garhi Shot First]

What a performance by Fed. Sublime! Congrats to his fans.

 

[MasturB]

Even when he and Dimitrov were spitting errors in their match the other day, the ball striking and shotmaking was great.

This was a bit more one-sided though. I will say that Goffin has taken the place of Mardy Fish as the most beautiful moving and aesthetically pleasing to watch 2HBH player on tour.

 

[D.Nalby12]

Tennis can be beautiful - Federer showed it again. Thank you very much Roger. Too bad masterclass lasted for one and half hour only.

 

[Deleted member 688153]

Courier is always watching

 

[I Am Finnish]

Federer & goffin made less ue's than djokovic combinated
Kudos from both players

 

[Fedinkum]

I want Fed to tell Tomic to Fick off on Australian National Tele!!

 

[TommyA8X]

How arrogant of Federer! Not remembering Rod Laver said hi before the match

 

[Deanjam]

Hey, that was my Cringe gif on the Bouchard's handshaking thread!!!

Clint belongs to us all.

 

[Zodd]

Fed making it sound like he's just having a coffee with berdych in the next round - obviously not too worried

 

[Levi_Ackerman]

@Levi_Ackerman what does your filthy mind say about this?

Oh God....

 

[Doctor/Lawyer Red Devil]

- 3-4 languages?
- 3-4 words maybe.

 

[Sysyphus]

YALLAAAA!

Everyone slam your hands on the wall! Rrrooooger Federer! Goffin bows in defeat like a little boy crying for candy, and Roger is graceful as always! Salsa!

 

[MasturB]

I give Federer's performance a 6/7.

 

[Fedinkum]

Clint belongs to us all.

Clint would have been proud of Fed tonite.

 

[tennis_pro]

Federer said in the post match interview that the girls speak 3 languages. What a privilege to have multilingual parents.

 

[HewittAlwaysDisappoints]

Fed didn't sign any signatures for the fans

There was a period 2010-2012 where I dreaded seeing Fed play Berdych. Just seemed to get overpowered and lucky to beat him.

These days it seems Fed owns Berdych since RF97.

 

[junior74]

Lovely interview right there Heartwarming.

 

[Fedinkum]

I give Federer's performance a 6/7.

You are a tough man...give the man a 6.9/7 for not serving any bagels.

 

[chjtennis]

Perfect scenario for Fed. Got it done in 89 mins. He should be physically ready for QF, but I really hope he gets the night match at RLA.

 

[SpinToWin]

Fed didn't sign any signatures for the fans

Why is he so irritated?

Going to beat up Tomic for blasphemy?

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Not at all...Djokovic is the rightful & deserved number 1 in the world & unless he gets hit by a bus Djokovic ain't losing that title anytime soon...& certainly not to Federer!

Djokovic has an incredible all round game that no one has come close to defeating on a consistent basis for past 12-18 months. Federer however has something special, especially when he puts on a show like he has tonight...he's a joy to watch & as tennis fans we should simply enjoy it because this is just great tennis.

Respect to you for that post mate! I agree and yes fed still is the GOAT at present overall but Djoko has been the current number 1 for a while now!

 

[Deleted member 688153]

I give Federer's performance a 6/7.

I'd say 14/17, with the USO 2004 F being 17/17.

 

[Algo]

Watched from 4-2 to 5-4 then it died.
I saw ******* in the building.
That's good

[Deanjam]

Another goat showing off gif cos I'm in the mood.

 

[The Fedfather]

Performances like today's should be called maestroclass. Masterclass just doesn't cut it.

 

[heninfan99]

That was quick.
Birdman awaits.

 

[Deanjam]

And another.

 

[MasturB]

You are a tough man...give the man a 6.9/7 for not serving any bagels.

I dropped it to 6 for getting his serve broken.

Otherwise it would have been a 7/7.

 

[Deanjam]

Ok. I'm done.

 

[Pavlos]

Nice artistic display from Fed....
So it's Djokovic vs. Nishikori and Fed vs. Berdych.
According to tournament schedule on the site, one semi is to take place on Thursday, the other one on Friday. Winners of the above matches to play on Thursday or Friday? Can't remember what they usually do.

 

[MasturB]

I'd say 14/17, with the USO 2004 F being 17/17.

Nice, using 17 as a rating system because of his 17 slams.

How would you rate French Open 2009 semi and final?
How about RG 2011 semi?

Don't forget to take a cheap shot against Murray also. Lol

Schedule is still going to go as normal. Top Half gets the first semi, second half gets the second semi.

Channeling your inner adil1972 there I see.
I think we all like to do that sometimes.

2009 SF = 11/17 accounting for his comeback
2009 F = 14/17
2011 SF = 15/17

Always rate Federer out of 17.

 

[TearTheRoofOff]

Facetiously scaling it up, if Fed had hit 100 UEs, he would have hit 195 winners.

Ronnie is GOAT talent capable of hammering the best players in snooker majors aged 40. Fedr had best win at least 1 Slam this year.
