[Tu Madre]

tie breaker!!! the true test...

 

[tennisfanatic]

tiebreak....go fed...

 

[edberg505]

These guys are hitting the ball insanely hard.

 

[skip1969]

crosscourt backhand pass for fed. mini break to start the tiebreak

 

[justineheninhoogenbandfan]

I am confident Roger will win this tiebreak and start taking better control of the match. Roger is just playing his normal game now, Blake is playing out of his mind.

 

[skip1969]

unforced error off the backhand for fed. 1-1.
ace for fed. 2-1.

 

[Reveille1984]

yeah, blake's arm is about to rip from the socket with those shots lol

 

[skip1969]

fed hits the sideline twice. 3-1.

 

[skip1969]

unforced error, blake. 4-1 for fed.

 

[skip1969]

unforced, fed. 4-2.

 

[skip1969]

unforced, fed. still leads 4-3.

 

[tennisfreak]

One thing is for sure Blake can very much hit with Fed from the baseline.

 

[Tu Madre]

niiiice... blake... very nice..

 

[skip1969]

service winner for blake. 4 all.
long baseline rally which blake wins. 5-4 blake.

 

[skip1969]

overhead winner for blake. but the crowd yelling all through fed's service motion.

 

[Tu Madre]

YAY! Go blaaakekeke

 

[tennisfanatic]

no!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[skip1969]

ace, fed. blake with a set point on his serve.

 

[zolo]

Damn!!!!!!!! I wanted Blake to get that so bad!

 

[Tu Madre]

dammit, come onnnn, lets finish this set

 

[tennisfreak]

Blake looked tentative on set point.

 

[tennisfanatic]

Go Fed!!! Lol

 

[skip1969]

fed wins a decent rally. they switch ends at 6 all.
set point again for blake.

 

[Tu Madre]

If blake can get one set, I'd be soo happy.

 

[tennisfanatic]

GO FED!!! I know you can do better than that...

 

[skip1969]

shanks a return into the middle of the net on a second serve. 7 all.
backhand error for blake. 8-7 for fed.

 

[Tu Madre]

Ahh shoot, Fed's gonna win

 

[tennisfanatic]

THis tiebreaker is a heartbreaker!!!

 

[justineheninhoogenbandfan]

Go Roger, Finish The Damn Set!

 

[zolo]

No No No!!!!!

 

[Tu Madre]

I knew it. Darn, good set though

 

[tennis_hand]

fed broke blake.

 

[edberg505]

Wow, that was a great set of tennis.

 

[justineheninhoogenbandfan]

YEEEEESSSSSS!!! Roger will take it up a notch now and win in straights. GO ROGER!

 

[Reveille1984]

hopefully Blake can recover, I don't wanna see a blowout :-|

 

[zolo]

Wow, that was a great set of tennis.

Yeah with a disappointing outcome LOL

 

[tennis_hand]

over. If blake can't put up another such kind of performance, Fed will walk again. LOL.

 

[tennisfanatic]

FED WINS THE !ST SET!!!LOL... I'm sure fed is going to change gear for the next two sets... GO FED!!!

 

[justineheninhoogenbandfan]

Yeah with a disappointing outcome LOL

You mean the right outcome. Fed winning is never the "wrong" outcome. :mrgreen:

 

[tennisfanatic]

aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh.... my mother wants me to pick her up at the office..........i hope when i come back its 2-0 for FED>>!!! I HOPE!

 

[zolo]

You mean the right outcome. Fed winning is never the "wrong" outcome. :mrgreen:

Not to me..SO WRONG!!! lol

 

[skip1969]

can you believe my mom called on set point!

well, decent first set. more emotion than great shot-making. let's see if blake can keep his level high. crowd is quiet now. big letdown. and blake isn't super strong mentally, or great at coming back from behind.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Roger is playing like crap, like ****, he really lucked out, he almost choked that set!!!!!He will eventually lose if he keeps playing like this, his game is really off.

 

[tennis_hand]

against Fed, he can't cramp in his head. He must battle it out like Nadal.

 

[justineheninhoogenbandfan]

Not to me..SO WRONG!!! lol

Well if you are cheering for Roddick to win the event(which I am not by any means but I suspect you are from previous posts), wouldnt you rather him beat Federer in the final as oppose to being asked "well you won, but would you have if Blake hadnt taken out Roger for you in the quarters." :mrgreen:

 

[psamp14]

could that have been blake's only chance to take advantage?

 

[Tu Madre]

gosh.. bad luck for blake...

 

[skip1969]

a lot of running for fed in that rally . . . and he comes up with a nice forehand pass. blake having to work HARD to hold.

now a GREAT defensive lob . . . fed is chasing everything . . . blake misses the overhead.

blake hits a great passing shot to save a break point. now he doubles to give fed another.

 

[dmvprof]

Fed Express seems to be in full swing. Blake needs to kick it up a notch or its gonna be short.

 

[psamp14]

suddenly blake facing a break point....saves it to deuce...now another federer break point
