US Open Day 13 Saturday The Men's Semis

First topic message reminder :

Well, it's all pointing to a Djoko-Fed final. But can Cilic or Nishikori spring a surprise ? Interesting that, after Fed, Cilic has won the most matches this season. Kei has had two exhausting five-setters but has not had to play since Wednesday, which should be a help.
Some interesting thoughts on another post about the improvement in Cilic's serving. He'll need to do well in that area if he wants to win today.
I think I'm going to plump for a Nole-Rog final. Should Fed win today it would the first season since 2009 he's reached more than one GS final.

Hahahahah to all of you gits

Bagel him on a TB, omg!!!!

My girlfriends changed to a show on Air hostesses... Can anyone please update?

Wtf? Tie her to a radiator, give her the Ipad.

4;2 Kei TB.

Sure - the update is that you should break up.

Joking

It's 4-2 to Kei, Novak with one serve left.

Edit: Double fault, Kei 5-2 up and with the ammunition.

But that is how Screech likes it the best.

True.

And probably one of the reasons why he has relatively few fans. Defensive gets a great fun for a few shots but then it gets a bit repetitive.

2 serves now for Kei to close the set 5:2

Id be mad... but some of these hostesses look absolutely smoking. Cheers for the update

Jahu, you master jinxer

Another DF from Kei. Move itttt

The thing is that Djokovic can be a fantastic attacking player when he's in the mood, but too often he gets really defensive.

Haha, fair enough.

Sadly he lost both points so we're back on serve, Novak at 4-5.

choke-fest.

Set pointttttttt

WTF, Kei up 2-1!

Yesssss

biugo, eh? :---------)))))

Yey!

Silver wrote:WTF, Kei up 2-1!

Ta!!! Yes!!!

Pure Magic on difficult moments from Kei, hello to all those who told Kei got no chance today, can you guys put your attendance pls.

He had no right to win that, absolutely on the rack for the first eight games and then he just sprang up out of nowhere. Played a great last few games and TB though, I'm surprised Novak played such a poor few points at the start of it.

Game on, then?

WTH!!

I've lost all respect for you.

How can you let your GF take control of the TV!!

Mrs emancipator wouldn't dream of such a tresspass.

emancipator junior the second otoh hasn't quite grasped the house rules yet

I suppose biugo must be Japanese.

Game on? Match on for Kei.

Lets see Djokk now ripping shirt and immitating Lions every hard point.

Go Kei go,

Alright, well done Jahu (some relief is needed for tension like this!)

4;2 Kei TB.

Put her in the kitchen and lock the door. Make her cook a feast.

Atleast in your house the future looks bright.

It must irk Screech that he is NEVER the crowd favourite.

The name sounds like one.

Oh god no! Only one person loses out with her cooking... and it isn't her.

edit - I'm also not in the financial position to afford a door between the TV room and the kitchen.

Ah, aren't we all Japanese tonight?

Yeah, on weekends I cook, 2 days of great food. Weekdays i can pretend i eate while at work...

All we need now is service holds.

Djoko broken, Kei go goooo

Hey, who needs a door between the TV room and the kitchen - quicker access.

Indeed, that was exactly the gist of my words

I missed the first two sets and I'm not going to be able to see the end but I think Nishi is going to do this!

Best I've seen him play and Novak is wilting!

Incredible.

We scared buigo now?

Come back man, even if you are Canadian.....!

Great hold; only four more.

Kei's playing very well, Novak not missing too much but just bunting a few into the net at crucial moments...oddly enough he seems to be struggling with the injection of pace from the Nishikori forehand and DTL backhand.

This must be stressful for you, HM!

Not going anywhere Jahu just stuck to the score board.. from 0-40 to a straight hold! Exciting game!

Edit: and I am not Canadain https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TncdhLGjFTE
(nor Quebecois though)

Omg Kei balling around.

The best thing about Kei's performance is how confident it is. So many players seem to freeze on their big moments but he's going for all his shots.

Silver - no, I'm OK. It's a bit disappointing from Novak but Kei is producing a great performance, so it will be a worthy win, should he pull it off.

Yes I am the Ninja coolers today.

5'10 Kei making folly of all this 6'8 superathlete nonsense.

That's true enough HM. It's always easier to stomach if your player goes down to a fantastic performance, although I hasten to add that we're a long way off a result yet. Plenty of running left in this one yet, you know what Novak's like when his back's against the wall...

Just WOW!

Since I am the Samurai, it is my duty to protect the Emperor, since Ninjas are street nasty boys...

Three more holds.

Sadly, I feel there is still enormous potential for a Kei choke.
