Total domination really from Isner. Kei only won 58% of points behind his first serve!

by Jahu Fri Apr 03, 2015 8:23 am

HN, Since your fav player ain't playing, let's support Isner then, others left are all boring Wink

Each to his own .. not for me

Do it, and stop being so smart & special, you're neither.

Can't watch Ferret, but hope he saves the tennis world from that actor, Djoko.

by Josiah Maiestas Fri Apr 03, 2015 9:49 am

Loved how Ferrer gave Simon a good old whooping in the 2nd set, he's on top of his game, Novak isn't, he's got the baby keeping him awake every hour through the night then waking with headaches Run

I cannot believe I am saying it, but: Vamos David!

by Josiah Maiestas Fri Apr 03, 2015 10:05 am

I believe Djokovic won't beat Ferrer tonight. Only Ferrer can beat Ferrer Cool

by summerblues Fri Apr 03, 2015 10:19 am

Cool.

by Henman Bill Fri Apr 03, 2015 10:25 am

Hi SB, why do you want Ferrer to win?

I do not particularly want him to win. I would prefer to see them both lose but that ain't gonna happen.

Not really sure why. All else being equal, I think I prefer Nole but I have been getting a little bored with the same players winning everything. Federer is the only one from the old guard at the top that I would not mind seeing continue indefinitely.

by summerblues Fri Apr 03, 2015 10:43 am

When I watch exchanges like these I know why I find today's tennis fairly boring. The rallies are quite high quality in some sense, but a lot of the time not all that much is happening.

by Henman Bill Fri Apr 03, 2015 10:53 am

Fair point SB, it is boring seeing Novak win on hard courts. Not so boring though as we head now into clay and grass season where he is on a par at best with Rafa in the first of those and only on a par with Murray and Federer perhaps in the second (debatable).

by summerblues Fri Apr 03, 2015 11:03 am

I step out for a bit and when I get back - surprise surprise - they are back on serve.

by temporary21 Fri Apr 03, 2015 11:04 am

Many people say Novak couldnt keep up his style of play into his 30's. I give you David Ferrer

by Born Slippy Fri Apr 03, 2015 11:07 am

Shocking from Ferrer from 40-15. Novak just being solid but that is enough.

by Haddie-nuff Fri Apr 03, 2015 11:07 am

I wish they could bottle some of the energy that man has .. I would buy a crate full

It wouldn't come cheap !

Oh no.

by Born Slippy Fri Apr 03, 2015 11:10 am

Lols Ferrer - losing himself this set.

by summerblues Fri Apr 03, 2015 11:11 am

by Born Slippy Fri Apr 03, 2015 11:12 am

Those last two games showed why Novak has 8 slams and Ferrer doesn't.

Not sure if others agree, but I thought Ferrer lost the last 2 games and the set mentally. Hitting the ball long to be broken, and that backhand volley down the line which went just into the tram lines in the next game.

by LuvSports! Fri Apr 03, 2015 11:22 am

Those 2 games were worth 8 slams? wowzer!

by Henman Bill Fri Apr 03, 2015 11:24 am

all getting a bit predictable now

by Henman Bill Fri Apr 03, 2015 11:32 am

So Ferrer this season against top 10 players I make it would be 2-1 with wins against Nishikori and Berdych and defeat against Nishikori. He is certainly on good form but when you consider his AO exit to Nishikori, and IW exit to Tomic, and this presumably defeat to Djokovic, he isn't doing anything special at the biggest tournaments, just the usual consistency at 250s and maybe 500s that we've come to expect from him.

I agree with that.. Novak has turned the heat up now and Ferrer is getting more and more frustrated I think. Having said that he holds his serve and we know he wont give up. Novak looks like he has been in a match though !!!

by Haddie-nuff Fri Apr 03, 2015 11:37 am

One thing about Ferrer he gives it his all and then some

by temporary21 Fri Apr 03, 2015 11:40 am

Ferrers ball is just too easy for Novak. Its never different and its the right speed and height for him. He absolutely dominate Ferrers balls

by Haddie-nuff Fri Apr 03, 2015 11:46 am

Well thats one way of putting it Wink

I just feel Ive been here before Sad

by Haddie-nuff Fri Apr 03, 2015 11:58 am

Atta boy probably too little too late but your doing what you do best..you dont give up

by summerblues Fri Apr 03, 2015 11:58 am

There is life in this match yet. HMM can add this one to his tally.

by Haddie-nuff Fri Apr 03, 2015 12:01 pm

Wait for it we will probably get the shirt ripping at the end of this match Rolling Eyes

by summerblues Fri Apr 03, 2015 12:02 pm

Mhmm... that did not last.

by summerblues Fri Apr 03, 2015 12:06 pm

Oh well, well done Nole in the end. Fairly close match but you never thought Nole was actually going to lose.

by Jahu Sat Apr 04, 2015 4:03 am

Come on Andy, crush him boxing

by lags72 Sat Apr 04, 2015 4:09 am

Berdy leads (just) the H2H ......

by Jahu Sat Apr 04, 2015 4:20 am

Andy breaks.

by Jahu Sat Apr 04, 2015 4:28 am

No one holding serve yet.

by Jahu Sat Apr 04, 2015 4:36 am

Andy questioning Cedric about a ball and telling him why and what picard

Play man play, leave the balls alone.

by Josiah Maiestas Sat Apr 04, 2015 4:52 am

Tomas has to have the least fighting spirit of any top 10 player ever.

by Jahu Sat Apr 04, 2015 4:55 am

Hahahah, yeah and instead of moving, he likes to kneel and punch the ball.

by Josiah Maiestas Sat Apr 04, 2015 4:58 am

Cedric getting bashed from both the players

Maybe use your brain 2nd set Tomas!

by It Must Be Love Sat Apr 04, 2015 5:00 am

Murray has won 17% on 2nd serves
