Wimbledon, Day 7, 6 July, Order of Play

They'll probably never get in 5 sets today. And I doubt sleeping on it would help Anderson.

At some point they will probably switch it to Centre Court like they did with Simon-Monfils

 

[Federberg]

^not sure they would be able to do the 11pm cut off on a week day. Probably 10pm. So they'd better start closing the roof now

That's true. I forgot that option.

The inevitable mental collapse from Anderson

 

[Murat B.]

4th set is Anderson's only chance. He is not winning the 5th.

I just said the same to my friend.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Interestingly, Bodo picks Anderson over Novak . I don't know whether he does it just to be a contrarian or really thinks so. Normally, Bodo does not even get into picking business.

Looks like Bodo Knew something.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Fed is 5-2 over Simon with both wins coming in 2008, when Fed was written off for the first time.

 

[Federberg]

I could see Simon getting a set, but it's hard to imagine he could win the match. The problem with him is that he could derail Rogers chances later on in the tournament

 

[Puppet Master]

Ladies and gentlemen, admire the gutlessness of Kevin Anderson in full flight. Let the choke galore commence.

 

[Federberg]

boy! Anderson can hit big sometimes. He should just go for it now. Still can't see him winning it. He's like the extra crewman on the Enterprise. You know he won't be around for long

Novak can't possibly be ready to dump his serve again?

 

[Federberg]

Novak can't possibly be ready to dump his serve again?

I think he is, but I'm not sure yeoman Anderson will let him. Let's see

 

[kskate2]

Nope, not this time. But Yeoman isn't ready to take this victory so he relinquishes his serve instead. :nono

 

[nehmeth]

Came home thinking this match would be over... :cover What happened? Let me guess, Anderson was hitting big and Novak was tentative??

 

[DarthFed]

Back to the wall...Nole isn't losing in a GS to Anderson. That'd be his worst loss since Melzer 5 years ago.

 

[Fiero425]

Came home thinking this match would be over... :cover What happened? Let me guess, Anderson was hitting big and Novak was tentative??

Nope! Anderson was serving out of his mind and was attacking relentlessly; executing deft touch at the net! :nono :angel: :eyepop :cover - He's keeping it close even though down a break in the 4th! Anderson has 30 aces and counting! You can't hit it if you can't reach it!

Fiero's right and I think Nole was a bit surprised at such.
