Halep-Kvitova will be hard to watch if it comes to that...shame there has to be a loser.

Dimitrov with the early break.
The other interesting thing about the women's SFists is that it's a sign that the narrative of the game getting older is waning. Three of the SFists born in the '90s, must be the youngest SF line-up in some time.

Yup. Dimitrov pounding Murray's 2nd serve.
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 12:48 (eleven years ago)
Murray is pretty bad today
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 12:48 (eleven years ago)
double break.
1st great shot!
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 12:49 (eleven years ago)
6-1
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 12:53 (eleven years ago)
wouldn't be surprised if this match ended with a scoreLiNa, it has fuckery written all over it
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 12:59 (eleven years ago)
my god, 2dfs
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:02 (eleven years ago)
Dug himself out of a hole.
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:05 (eleven years ago)
His serve isn't there however if he can hang on that should improve.
Next is those unforced errors, return is working ok.
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:06 (eleven years ago)
Cilic doesn't seem to be giving Djokovic much trouble
― katstevens, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:12 (eleven years ago)
Those unforced errors won't go away. On serve but this is surely slipping away.
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:14 (eleven years ago)
lol that smash
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:16 (eleven years ago)
lol Murray smashes into the net
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:16 (eleven years ago)
awful, feeble error after a winner.
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:17 (eleven years ago)
On the brink. BP
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:19 (eleven years ago)
I'm not really worried yet, Murray is comedic atm but he's come from 1/2 sets down and won messier matches than this. Dimitrov's done nothing wrong but hasn't really been challenged yet.
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:19 (eleven years ago)
Nicely constructed point to save it.
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:20 (eleven years ago)
Lex - amazed you are not worried. His mind is not right today.
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:21 (eleven years ago)
Broken with more UEs
30-30. Pulls it long.
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:25 (eleven years ago)
1st crap game from Dimitrov.
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:26 (eleven years ago)
It's best of five. If nothing changes in the third set, then it's time to worry, but the chances that he'll dig deep or Dimitrov will blink aren't low.
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:26 (eleven years ago)
Breaks back!
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:27 (eleven years ago)
eg, like there.
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:27 (eleven years ago)
Dimitrov has blinked...
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:28 (eleven years ago)
Hahaha you can hear the cheering all the way from No.1 court...
― katstevens, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:30 (eleven years ago)
Yeah, Murray finding his range!!
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:32 (eleven years ago)
That was a big point. And Dimitrov dumped a BH halfway up the net to end it...
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:32 (eleven years ago)
Doh, just remembered they'd be showing it on the big screen outside No.1 hence cheering. It's woken Cilic up a bit at least.
― katstevens, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:34 (eleven years ago)
Lucky to get out of that game, but this match has turned into a scrap, which Murray's pretty good at...
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:42 (eleven years ago)
beautifully saved BPs
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:42 (eleven years ago)
"it's a bit surprising that the first three points of this TB are UEs" says the commentator
no, no it's really not at all surprising tbh!
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:47 (eleven years ago)
Dimitrov played a big FH to cut down the rally lenght.
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:50 (eleven years ago)
Played some beautiful points for 2SPs
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:53 (eleven years ago)
Very well played.
Probably Dimitrov's best tennis of the match in that TB, taking control when it became apparent that Murray wouldn't
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:54 (eleven years ago)
Cilic gets the 2nd set!
― katstevens, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:54 (eleven years ago)
Ah shit I didn't even pay attention to Cilic after the first set!!
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 13:57 (eleven years ago)
Neil Harman @NeilHarmanTimes 9mA French colleague just said that Andy is playing exactly the same way as Amelie used to at @rolandgarros
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 14:06 (eleven years ago)
Murray won that point but Dimitrov's incredible speed was evidence enough that trying to outgrind him is a terrible strategy
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 14:11 (eleven years ago)
I've never heard the broken string as bad luck thing, as just suggested by Mac
― rip van wanko, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 14:15 (eleven years ago)
everything McEnroe says should either be tuned out or used to assume the opposite
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 14:20 (eleven years ago)
switched off.
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 14:21 (eleven years ago)
Oh dear.
If this was Gasquet I'd put some money on Murray now but Dimitrov is not, I think, on that level of choker
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 14:22 (eleven years ago)
Oh are you just gonna hand it over with UEs and not even make him serve it out?
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 14:26 (eleven years ago)
LOL DF for two MPs
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 14:28 (eleven years ago)
FH halfway up the net on the second. Terrible really
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 2 July 2014 14:29 (eleven years ago)
here for the Dimitrov-Fed final
