First topic message reminder :

Thought I would dislodge the toilet brush as matchday thread connoisseur Wink

Federer v Djokovic

Murray v Tsonga

Whack away! Ok!

by Danny_1982 Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:27 pm

And again !!!

Keep using it!!

by reckoner Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:27 pm

If he over uses it it trains Djokovic to handle it.

by reckoner Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:28 pm

NOOOO what a miss!

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:28 pm

By far the best exchange of the match. clap

by Seifer Almasy Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:28 pm

Roger hit 2 winners there but baseline defence crap won over.

by Danny_1982 Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:29 pm

Reckoner - he's a million miles from over using it.

I agree he should use it every point though, obviously.

by reckoner Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:29 pm

Fair enough Danny.

Please please please please please

Lucky git.

The fact is in the last few points Fed has hit 3 clean forehand winners but the different conditions have allowed djok to reach the ball and return.

If they were winners then Djokovic wouldn't have retrieved them.

by Guest Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:32 pm

Fed striking the ball much better. Finally his timing seems to be on.

YES!

HIS BACKHAND IS BACK IN FUNCTION

by Jahu Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:32 pm

What a rally what a slice. Go FEEDDDDDDDDDDD

by reckoner Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:32 pm

What a point! C'mon Fed!

Sorry but I think the roof over is making it a little quicker. Not sure though. Another BP for Fed here...

by Guest Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:33 pm

A Federer break. Don't blow the next game Rog!!!!

I refer to the conditions these days... not the roof.

Oh dammit.

Oh right misunderstaning thumbsup

Federers volleys are pisssing me off now.

by Danny_1982 Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:35 pm

I agree olly. The roof is making it quicker.

That favour Federer without doubt.

by Seifer Almasy Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:35 pm

It is really frustrating. Fed could do no more that rally, he hit 2 massive forehands to watch Djok return them from way over the left hand side of the court.

Pathetic.

by User 774433 Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:36 pm

Allez!

Lest we forget the conditions work both ways my friend angel

by Guest Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:37 pm

Baseline rallies are much more even now

They favour a baseline defender like djok though. Old courts that Djok was broken.

Is it time to stop watching tennis that you no longer enjoy? Perhaps the evolution of the game has ruined it for you as a spectacle?

There is no doubt about that. But At least I can still admire Federer's genius even if it gets returned with a moonballing piece of sh.ite

by Danny_1982 Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:39 pm

This set has been much better than the first 2.

You get the feeling it could decide the destiny of the match.

Julius, he's just trying to troll us with constant snide remarks... Surely you've realised by now Headscratch

by Guest Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:40 pm

A break would be most welcome Smile

by Josiah Maiestas Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:40 pm

Crap.

by CaledonianCraig Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:40 pm

I feel this set is a must win for Federer. As I said if he keeps holding his serve the pressure remains on Djokovic.

Another snide remark.

When are the mods going to act? Run

Anyway 4-4, huge game coming up. Smile

Punish him.

by Josiah Maiestas Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:44 pm

What an awful point

by reckoner Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:44 pm

oh dear Fed's errors hand another BP over

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:44 pm

BP for the Djoker Very Happy

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:44 pm

Gone

by Guest Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:45 pm

This is so finely balanced at the mo

by Josiah Maiestas Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:45 pm

Thank god for those serves. Please play some agressive returns now.

by Seifer Almasy Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:45 pm

Why? To watch Djok return them all by doing nothing of his own.

by Henman Bill Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:46 pm

Really high calibre third set. I do wonder if that long game in the middle, where Djokovic managed to fend off break points and Federer missed forehand chances into the tram lines, could be the decider.

by Guest Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:47 pm

I thought this forum wasn't tolerating player insults?

A moonballer piece of sh.te coming from a fellow pice of sh.te is not healthy.

by Josiah Maiestas Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:48 pm

FIRST STRIKE FOR THE WIN

by Josiah Maiestas Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:49 pm

PLEASE NOW

THIS IS INTENSE

by User 774433 Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:50 pm

Fed takes the set! Run
