Federer almost visibly willing himself to up a gear. Or is that just my imagination?

damn it that's how you do a smash

Super rally. Fed just woke up. Comeon FEDDDD

Seems to have woken up now.. at least making an effort!

fingers crossed

oooh how'd he get that back

Fed breaks. I think he got the massage that Rod is all in tonight, no joke.

breaks!

an interesting visual there...

See... it was that easy...

He wasn't making an effort at all till that point...

A lot more venom in the shots now.

well I mean I could see he was coasting to a tie-break in the first, but you can't just give it away!

Dude, I was just joking with your typo, I hope you haven't taken offence or anything

Good that you took it for a spin

True... and with a big server like Roddick, one point here and there and the set is gone...

Up a double-break now in second...

Just as I feel a glimmer of compassion for Roddick I remember Brooklyn Decker.

Good night all, enjoy the rest of the match.

So what was that firs set from Fed? For old times sake I give you the firs set?

GSM Federer

Roddick has won the first... So according to my knowledge it might go to a third...

Please keep updating the score, I don't have a proper connection

Fed up 5-1 30-40 up in 2nd

Close it here Federer, and serve first in the third set.

And takes it 6-1... One set all now..

6-1 second set to Federer, and he serves first.

Federer 1-0* Roddick

Fed on fire.

Roddick the ridiculous. 0-30.

3 BPs for Federer.

Roddick is still dreaming about Madison Square Gardens.

Laver be compassionate!

Wasted BPs. Deuce.

I am trying, for Stefanki's sake.

Adv Federer.

OH smash training for Roddick.

How many BPs does Federer need.

Federer *1-1 Roddick.

0-30. Federer needs a shock now to be woken up.

3 BPs for Roddick. One dumped in the Net.

Roddick breaks.

Federer 1-2* Roddick.

fed is playing so carelessly its like he isn't trusting his ability when roddick steps it up poor volley

I want Federer to lose now.
