I am really looking forward to that match (if it happens). I would expect Novak to win, but have enough doubt to be intrigued by it.

We keep counting Delpo out (including yesterday after that first set), but he keeps coming back. Great stuff!

Anyway, if this type of tennis is too boring for you guys, and you prefer more attacking and cutting edge tennis, you should definitely check this link out:

You said that before the Gulbis and Federer matches, too Wink

have a bit of a faith! I do, I think Rafa's going to give it his best tomorrow.

I think everyone is getting ahead of themselves talking about Novak in the final! He's looking very vulnerable here!

Oh my....

by Josiah Maiestas Sat 16 Mar 2013, 11:59 pm

This Serb is a weak willed weak era player. VAMO Delpooooo!

Champion's resolve there from novak, saves 2 bp's and halts DP's charge for 4-3. Big hold.

by summerblues Sun 17 Mar 2013, 12:00 am

Nole survives.

After Djokovic wins Indian Wells this year, how many unbeaten games will that be?
He's on ominous form, I'd be very surprised if he didn't complete the Grand Slam this year.

by Jahu Sun 17 Mar 2013, 12:06 am

Oh man, Delpo deserves this match.

by Jahu Sun 17 Mar 2013, 12:08 am

Red, what are you smoking? Stop it NOW!

by HM Murdock Sun 17 Mar 2013, 12:08 am

Del Po had the marathon QF but it's Novak running out of steam!

by User 774433 Sun 17 Mar 2013, 12:09 am

Djokovic has already won this match Jahu.
6-4 4-6 6-4.

by Josiah Maiestas Sun 17 Mar 2013, 12:10 am

This loud mouthed weak era number 1 can't even control a slow footed basketball player on his best surface. Wow!

by LuvSports! Sun 17 Mar 2013, 12:10 am

DP is giving his all but looks to be tiring finally.

by Jahu Sun 17 Mar 2013, 12:10 am

by User 774433 Sun 17 Mar 2013, 12:12 am

Great hold for Djoko, saving those break points.

by Jahu Sun 17 Mar 2013, 12:13 am

It's a pity Djokovic will break back though.

by The Special Juan Sun 17 Mar 2013, 12:15 am

Enough of the potty mouth you rapscallion!! I don't know how but it seems DelPo is a game away from the impossible.

by Jahu Sun 17 Mar 2013, 12:15 am

He's gonna crush Nadal to bits tomorrow.

Djoko has been crushed spiritually and overfed with argentine aged beef

by User 774433 Sun 17 Mar 2013, 12:18 am
