This and the cricket at the same time. Too much.
― Michael Jones, Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:10 (six years ago)
This should have been Federer 3 sets to 0 but whatever. Blergh.
― Roz, Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:11 (six years ago)
Never in doubt
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:12 (six years ago)

fed w two champ pts on his serve is gonna stiiing gdamn
― johnny crunch, Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:15 (six years ago)
Give it about five years before I can stand to watch highlights of this. Particularly the Fed MPs.
― Michael Jones, Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:16 (six years ago)
Lol Fed. "I'll try my best to forget it"
― Roz, Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:16 (six years ago)
yeah tbh that's it, two CPs, had it there and then..
― xyzzzz__, Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:17 (six years ago)
Didn't think I'd be broken up for a man who has 21 slams but there you go
Booooo. I hate watching Djokovic play.
― Yerac, Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:18 (six years ago)
Would he have quit if he had won? Like.. immediately?
― Ludo, Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:19 (six years ago)
(Fed obviously, Djoko is gonna continue playing until he surpasses Fed's 20)
Doubt it, Fed has said he wants to be around for Tokyo Olympics.
― Roz, Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:20 (six years ago)
And he likely will if he keeps playing like this!
― Roz, Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:21 (six years ago)
has fed ever lost a final from up champ pt before
― johnny crunch, Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:21 (six years ago)
i understand djokovic haters but he is just so good, cant hate him
― johnny crunch, Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:24 (six years ago)
Not Slams. But he lost to Del Potro from MP up in Indian Wells F last year. Also Nadal in Rome F 2006. And Novak has done him at least twice now. Not finals though (USO sf once or twice and possibly Paris Masters sf last year - 76 57 76).
― Michael Jones, Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:26 (six years ago)
yeah!
― Ludo, Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:31 (six years ago)
I didn't hate Djokovic but his continued public support of Justin Gimelstob is unconscionable and a huge reason why men's tennis is a mess rn. Andy Murray he is not.

― Roz, Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:37 (six years ago)
he's just so deeply unlikeable to watch. in everything. even those stupid uniqlo ads.
― Yerac, Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:42 (six years ago)
i can hate him
― imago, Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:44 (six years ago)
someone should ask fed in this press conf if he is pro/con/indifferent to the 12-12 tiebreak rule
― johnny crunch, Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:55 (six years ago)
& he said "it is what it is" ok
― johnny crunch, Sunday, 14 July 2019 18:56 (six years ago)
the gimelstob affair is unfortunate but tbh just seems like a convenient excuse for people who've always hated him regardless
― groovemaaan, Sunday, 14 July 2019 19:00 (six years ago)
it smacks of generic eastern european bias imho
― groovemaaan, Sunday, 14 July 2019 19:02 (six years ago)
My dislike of him was compounded by the Becker connection, who I hated more than anyone who has ever played the game. Give him his due, he may have dips in intensity and focus in matches but seemingly never when it really matters. Fed’s winner-UE diff was +32, Nole’s was +2. How on earth, I blame the electoral college, etc etc
― Michael Jones, Sunday, 14 July 2019 19:31 (six years ago)
1 could say that fed wins this match vs any other man in history
― johnny crunch, Sunday, 14 July 2019 19:40 (six years ago)
he's for people who thought Sampras was the ultimate in charisma black holes.
― Yerac, Sunday, 14 July 2019 19:43 (six years ago)
Also the 12-12 t/b thing - ok in the sense it keeps the tournament moving, prevents players being spent for the next round because they had to toil for six hours plus, but I think they should have suspended it for the final(s). These guys are doing nothing until August and there’s a roof.
