World Tour Finals Thread - Match & Prediction Thread
First topic message reminder :
So the ATPs premier showpiece event hits the O2 on Sunday. The sixth showing at the O2 and yielded only 3 different winners. Very interesting this year. 3 virgin qualifiers in Cillic, Raonic and Nishikori. Can we see a new winner? Can Nishikori and Raonic win the biggest title of their careers to date? Federer will have an eye on the DC like his compatriot Wawrinka, though he is woefully out of form of late. Has Murray much left in the tank to win his first title here at the O2? Can Berdych do a Davydenko and strike out of nowhere? Will it be a routine Djokovic victory?
For me the 2 that qualify from each group will be:
Group A
1) Djokovic
2) Raonic
Group B
1) Murray
2) Federer
Djokovic/Murray final
Winner: Djokovic

Pretty impressive from Stan; it has been a while since I saw him play like this.

Federers FH seems to have eluded him in this first set.
Stan, hitting the hall with some purpose.

Hmmm. I feel that some Federer fans may be slightly split on this match because they also really like Stan.Jahu wrote:Set 1 Stan, well deserved.

I'm not split though, allez Fed !

Re: World Tour Finals Thread - Match & Prediction Thread
Stan was quite nervous towards the end; one can see he would not get the job done against Nole. ![Crying or Very sad](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_cry.gif)
Also, Nole would contain him better - he would put enough balls back in play to make him ultimately start making errors. Realistically, if we are to have any chance of a close match tomorrow, it would still have to be Roger to win tonight.

Stan on fire and really pumped.
When those big FH's are hitting the spot he's a tough proposition for anyone. He could easily take this in straights.

All about the angles, as Johnny Mac says in his autobiog.
And Stan is finding some good angles tonight.

It would be quite impressive if Stan finishes the year with the WTF, a masters and a slam.

If this goes three long sets you can hand the trophy to Djokovic.

After the Murray match, Fed said he had not expected it to go the way it did. He may say the same after tonight.

If Feds gets through, how much will the reduced recovery time as well as playing djoko next affect him 2mo?

Maybe Fed is still tired from the tough match a couple of nights ago.

What an atrocious overrule that was. Right under the chair, too.
0-40!

Re: World Tour Finals Thread - Match & Prediction Thread
To be fair, Fed should've questioned it when he heard 0-30 rather than 15-15.
But still a real bad call from the umpire.

But he must not have heard the 0-30 or he would definitely have questioned it. Makes no sense not too.
