[MargaretMcAleer]

You'd best phone her back Margaret!

I just did and told her 'ye of little faith'

Hey EG. Have you watched the whole match from the start?

 

[EdbergsGhost]

Cahill and McEnroe are furious that the roof was closed saying how it will hurt Roger. Fed serve

Hey EG. Have you watched the whole match from the start?

Woke up to see the roof closing. Were the first two sets Djoker playing well or Fed playing like Shankenstein??

 

[britbox]

Fed was a little flat, but the bottom line is Novak put on a clinic... he was making anything and everything. Fed couldn't live with it.

Quite the opposite. Roger was playing ok, Novak was looking untouchable

 

[EdbergsGhost]

Roof closed it looks like it will turn into a serve fest. Bet Fed was wishing in was closed to begin with.

I just woke up to check on it. Interesting point to tune in it seems.

I'm not sure Roger wins a serve-fest. He really struggles against Novak's serve!

 

[EdbergsGhost]

Wow

 

[Moxie]

What a point!

 

[britbox]

Wow... just wow.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Wowser Roger Point,then gets broken.

 

[britbox]

Tape was a bit untimely... but the following return was a peach from Djokovic. Serving for the match.

 

[Federberg]

stick a fork in it...

 

[EdbergsGhost]

Well done Djokovic.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Congrats Novak the first 2 sets you put on a 'tennis clinic'....good to see Roger turn it around in the 3rd set.

Onwards Novak playing for your 6th AO title!

 

[Federberg]

Great match in the end. At least Roger restored some pride. But quality from Novak!

 

[britbox]

Four sets of good tennis.... and two sets of good competitive tennis. Djoker was too good... Didn't lose his cool when Fed came back.

Fact is Fed has to play to a ridiculous level to challenge him and execute almost flawlessly for 4 hours... not likely to happen.

 

[EdbergsGhost]

This was a big match. If Roger won, it would have put him in place to win his 18th and distance himself from the pack. Novak has the opportunity to catch up on the guys that are ahead of him. I am looking forward to watching the first three sets.
