No problem,thankfully Halle is one tourney I don't have to watch on stream as my channel broadcasts it for the last 2-3 years.

dont know why, but i kinda like that venue; it's got the cover if they need it, plus it looks as tho it has a lot of seating. does your channel also broadcast the aegon/queens?

so ... rochus takes second 7-5

To be honest I love both Halle and Queens tourneys,there's something special about both of them.

Queens I get on eurosport sometimes while Halle is broadcasted in my country on SPORTKLUB which is a channel who also brodcasts all 9 masters.

LOL,I know I know.Wasn't that way always but it started around 2004-2005,since then SPORTKLUB broadcasted all masters,amazing channel overall.

Wow, only thing I get to watch live here is Rosmalen, Rotterdam, Roland Garros (terrible footage), Wimbledon (used to be great, now just as terrible, with every hour 10 minutes of financial news:-?) and some US Open and Australian Open at Eurosport.

Great BH passing shot from Rochus to earn a BP for 5-2.

 

[zagor]

This one's over I think,too bad I like Petzschner's game.

 

[seffina]

Yeah, I was rooting for him here. Oh well. I guess it's good for Rochus to make it to the quarters.

Halle has turned into a little bit of a bummer for me since Roger pulled out anyways.

I fully expected Fed to pull out of Halle after the grueling FO.I'm hoping Novak wins here now to build up some confidence before Wimbledon.

 

[Love Game]

Djokovic/Serra up next.
meanwhile........................

 

[zagor]

Good defense from Novak earn him a BP.

 

[zagor]

Serra gets out of the trouble with a couple of great serves and holds.

 

[zagor]

Man,that was a beautiful dropper from Nole followed by a little S&V on the next point.Not bad,not bad at all.

 

[zagor]

BP for Novak and a second serve,should use this.

 

[Telepatic]

Just tuned in, looks like Serra playing good?

 

[zagor]

He's solid but Novak is playing good as well,much better than against Bolleli IMO it's just that he couldn't use 2 BPs he had but very strong on his serve today,served a second serve ace just a moment ago.

 

[Telepatic]

Uhh looks like Noles playing good but really bad returns.. :/

 

[zagor]

Uhh looks like Noles playing good but really bad returns.. :/

Well Serra has a good serve but overall Novak had his chances in almost every Serra's service game,too bad he didn't use them.

 

[zagor]

Man this is horrible,Serra didn't even sniff a BP until now and he has 3 SPs now.

 

[zagor]

Great play to save the first but why does he always go for dropshots on big points? It's too risky.

 

[zagor]

Saves the second with a great angled FH,only one more to go.

 

[zagor]

%^&%@#$)@)%*()@*^%&)(**#&$(%(*#&^ DBF on a SP.

 

[Telepatic]

DF to lose a set weee..

 

[Telepatic]

Well either way, I think Nole came here to Halle just to feel the grass a bit before Wimble not really to win here..(Im optimistic)

 

[zagor]

I can't believe it,Novak was holding easily the whole set and Serra was the one who was constantly in trouble on his serve and this happens.But Novak can certainly comeback,this is far from over.

 

[seffina]

Dang it, Novak. Better win the next two sets. I hope he will.

I don't know,I still think it would be good for him to go to Wimbledon with a grasscourt title under his belt.

 

[zagor]

I agree with Viskovic,Novak isn't playing bad today overall,he just played one bad game in the first set.

 

[Telepatic]

Yes, but that was a crucial game..Maybe it says about bad mental state at the moment..maybe..

 

[zagor]

Yeah,he certainly seems to lack some confidence at the moment,That was uncharacteristic for him to play that game so badly and then to even DBF on a SP,he's normally pretty clutch.

Great return winner from Novak.

 

[zagor]

BP,really needs to take this one.

****,an ace,deuce.

 

[Telepatic]

wee one more BP gone with the wind.. qq

 

[Telepatic]

.... Oh man, it was so short ball..

 

[zagor]

Novak should have won that point,completely dictated the play with his FH but bad play at the net gave Serra a chance to hit that lob.

 

[Telepatic]

He needs to practise more with drop volleys I guess.

 

[zagor]

Man that was such a good opportunity,seems to be out though.

 

[Telepatic]

No hawkeye? ...

 

[zagor]

Unfortunately no,I've never seen anyone use challenge at Halle.

 

[zagor]

Man,even a bad bounce,this is horrible.

Saves the first with an ace,ajmo Nole.
