The court was playing like a clay, Fed was injured, he played night session and the night was too dark!

Fed excuse generator thread- 2019 United States Open edition.

If you have an excuse or two for the latest Roger defeat, put them here!

 

[TearTheRoofOff]

Just trying to get up to around 50% of the innane ****e that Nadal and his fans have used over the course of his career.

Still a ways to go for that particular milestone, however.

 

[Yugram]

Nadal has a weak draw

 

[scotus]

He lost motivation when his nemesis Djokovic was eliminated in the previous round.

Yes now that Federer has lost, we can safely say the court was too slow

 

[Nadal_Django]

The man himself says it's his upper back. The problem aroused out of nowhere, in the late afternoon.

I like the part about the night being too dark.
So essentially they should re-play the match today? if needed tomorrow and so on till Fed wins?

Mono

 

[Lew II]

He is old

 

[imageFAM]

need a federer version of this

 

[Zoolander]

It was too dark in Wimby 2008 final too. AND mono. AND probably twins too.

 

[terribleIVAN]

Dimitrov came to win.

 

[Red Rick]

THE NIGHT IS DARK AND FULL OF ERRORS

 

[tonylg]

I'd count myself as a Fed fan. Dimi played better and deserved to win. I enjoyed the match.

 

[Wrecker]

He wanted some additional rest for Laver Cup

 

[Lew II]

He wanted some additional rest for Laver Cup

LOL good one.

 

[Service Ace]

We officially watched him fall off the cliff at Wimbledon. This was always going to be the result he got here.

Call the Batman!

But then if they replay it during the day it may be too hot, too humid or too much light. That’s only if Federer of course loses.

I hate to break up this little group tug with some reality, but watch this:

Crediting his opponent and despite the media inviting him to do so, not blaming the loss on anything but Dimi playing well.

Given most of Novak's fans appear to be children, watch and learn kiddies. That's how a champion loses.
