Lost fair and square to Nadal 6/7 3/6 3/6

Honestly I think Federer played a good match, he played great. Missed some shots as usual but thats normal.
But i want to congratulate him.

It's certain now Federer has no solutions against Nadal except maybe on grass who knows ?

But let's congratulate him for his great tournament, lost 1 set en route to the final, beating tough opponents in R12 and QF.

Some Fed fans here are too harsh with Roger here, don't forget he lost early in Wimbledon and US open, this AO was a great tournament for him.
 
Played great, no.

The only reason the match wasn't an enormous blowout is Nadal played horribly on so many break points.

Should've been some breadsticks in there.

I don't expect him to beat Nadal. I don't really expect anyone to beat Nadal, so it is what it is. Nadal is the most unstoppable tennis player I've ever seen. If he doesn't eclipse Federer's slam record, I will be surprised.

But the reason why people build up these matches time and time again is because of the sliver of hope that Federer will win, and not that Nadal will win.

Then you know nothing about tennis or you started watching him play in 2009 maybe.

He played his game, he didn't play worst than against Tsonga or Murray, you guys need to realize it's normal Federer misses shots against Nadal. Which player doesn't, except Djokovic 2011 ? Federer misses more against Nadal than against Tsonga or Kavcic because Nadal makes him miss. It doens't mean Federer played bad.

Federer played a good match today.
But he had no solutions... he played a great tournament overall.

You're only interesting in praising Nadal with this disingenuous post.

federer needed to stop being mr nice guy about 8 years ago in this relationship with nads.but i think nike might have had something to say to that.

Seriously. That match was a joke. Roger may just as well have not shown up because he certainly wasn't playing anywhere near what he is still capable of. I'd rather see Roger beat Rafa in a seriously competitive match than take him out in a dismal three without Rafa even trying.

OP has done this many times, often appears to be neutral, but he picks his time and words very carefully. He is a clever and crafty one, much smarter than TDK when it comes to patronizing Fed fans. :twisted::twisted::twisted:

LOL! The scoreline could have easily been a lot worse than it was.

Federer hardly even got BPs in this match. He was simply no where in the league of Nadal.

At the moment, no one is.
 
what if the quality of the shots Federer had to handle wasn't quite the same as those from Tsonga or Murray? and maybe that's why he missed more? ever thought about that?

but was it?federer was tight...i dont care man, i think federer is dingbat and his huge ego has cost him dearly and now its too late too change it.also he if he really thinks nadal is his "friend" he's even more stupid.
