LOL. All this 'Uniqlo such a step down from Nike' just ruthlessly parried in one tweet.

Till today I predicted at least a QF from him, but now I am not that confident given the circumstances.Still , maybe he won't be forced to play 3 setters in a row

Yeah two matches in one day will be tough, particularly given that Coric won't have to matches. Rwcovering for the next day if he wins will be even tougher.Till today I predicted at least a QF from him, but now I am not that confident given the circumstances.Still , maybe he won't be forced to play 3 setters in a row
I suppose at least his QF opponent will have gone through the same - Fognini is also in his thirties now, and Tsitsipas has been playing a lot of tennis.
I feel like I'm clutching at straws though.

On the positive side ... Roger said he wanted to test his fitness playing matches. Looks like he's getting his wish today!
(Assuming that he can win his first match.)

Looks great. One of the best Uniqlo outfits so far for Rogi.

Well I know never to take anything for granted with Roger these days. But he looks to be beating Sousa quote comfortably. If he does, I reckon that's mission accomplished in Rome already. He'll have two more matches under his belt going into RG. The rest is gravy.LOL, what a disaster that decision is turning out to be.

We've just got to trust Roger & his team to know his body and know when to stop.I meant that he will try to win every single match he plays, which also means that he will try to pull off an unprecedented number of wins for a player his age in a very short period of time. That is bound to end not so well. He will win some, but at what cost?
The problem is not that he will play 2 matches in Rome. The problem will come when they are 3 or 4.

If he wins a lot of matches it is great. And it seems that if he doesn't win a lot of matches, it is also great.

Should've gotten started today on a 10/15-page report for a postgrad course,
but man was it worth procrastinating...twice
He could lose the rest of his clay matches now with his engine well-oiled for the grasslands

I just came back from watching John Wick 3 and saw Federer become a real life John Wick and overcome the odds at the end. Classic nail biting ending, and deserved winner. Have to say Coric is about as bland as it gets.

He straight setted Novak but won 9 points less wtf?!
Also why is a W/O included in this list.

No one other than his box wanted him to win that match if you saw the reactions from the crowd.
That's funny, Borg was exactly the same and yet was idolised by press and fans. IceBorg they called him....

But there's actually a point tally next to it though, presumably it's referring to a different match? I'm thinking it's the Wimbledon final against Rafa that year, given that two of the sets Fed won were through tiebreaks and he lost the other two easily.

Literally the most he’s ever been outplayed and still won. Nice to see things evening out a little even though they won’t completely get there.
He’s close to 40 losses when winning more points or being tied in points, by far the most ever for players we have statistics for.
I think that X-man match is one in which he had his lowest dominance ratio and still won (.74 or .76).

It's bigger than that. Since Rome16, they had 7 chances to see Fedr at slams. This is the first chance they see Fedr in Rome since.

Borg was a rock star in tennis and was a phenomenal ATG player. Coric is a piece of lint compared to Borg when they have a racket in their hands. To even mention Bore-ic in the same sentence as Bjorn is bordering on blasphemy. It's like comparing Laver to Raonic.

i did, lmao i loved the bit where he was like yes and my favorite part was to be here at 11 so i could wait all day. honestly my favorite bit was about kygrios, he was so not taking the bait for another headline when that guy was like i heard people were talking in the locker room and fed was like were you there? and then also was like you have to be careful when you say things when he asked how long nick should be suspended for when it hasnt even been confirmed that he would be.

Agreed. That question about Nick was annoying to hear, and I'm glad that Fedr 100% put him in his place by asking 'has it been decided?'. Fedr is so nice to the media so often, but they just want to throw him under a bus to get a headline. The reporter asked Fedr's opinion on how long 'should' Nick be suspended. Any 'amount' as an answer would be Fedr falling into the trap. I'm still glad that Fedr's stance was that Nick should NOT be suspended, at all. As Fedr said, was the the chair (the object) hurt LOL? It simply was not severe enough. So Nick should be suspended bc a chair was thrown into open court? Ridiculous! Dude, tennis players bash a yellow ball for a living
, but they should be suspended bc of a chair was thrown at air?

TennisTV's schedule says that they are not showing the Federer-Tsitsipas match tomorrow... WTF? It's a quarterfinal on Court Centrale, for crying out loud... Can this be true????

It looks to me they are airing it all day. Ted Robinson did the promo and said Fed-Tsitsipas will be the first men's match tomorrow and they will have it on.
