2016 Wimbledon

[cezero]

This was actually a very good result for sock considering grass takes away a bunch of his time for his somewhat loopy groundstrokes.

Hope he continues to work on his fitness, and goes on a tear as we approach the US Open.

Who said he has a good chance. Murray beat him in final here before. Hasn't he??

Yes, the 2012 Olympics.

That was 1 month after FED had beaten Murray in the Wimbledon Finals.

FED also beat Murray here in last year's SFs.

A funny stat is that 10 SFs, FED has only lost 1 set -- 2012 to Djokovic.

30 sets won, 1 set lost.

Fed still has a tall order in needing to get thru nishu or colic.

Tsonga took sets three and four and on serve in the fifth. Go Izzy!!

 

[bksballer89]

Disappointed in Sloan Ranger. Up 5-2 in the 3rd and ended up losing

 

[bksballer89]

On serve late in the 5th. Tsonga serving at 4-5 to stay in the match

Who will blink first?

 

[bksballer89]

Who will blink first?

Isner blinked first. Tsonga serving up 18-17 for a spot in the round of 16

 

[bksballer89]

Tsonga wins. At least we have 2 American Men in the round of 16. Not the 2 you would have expected if you were asked the question last Sunday

 

[Old Lion]

Krygios through too.

 

[Hs0022]

Bummer about Izzy! Don't know why I never took a liking to Tsonga (Ali lookalike). A lot of people like him including a nephew of mine who plays.

Tomorrow is the best day of the tennis season

Disappointed in Sloan Ranger. Up 5-2 in the 3rd and ended up losing

Kuznetsova is usually not good on grass for some reason, but in the 3rd set, her slices messed with Sloan.

 

[nuraman00]

I am here.

Tennis is on both ESPNs.

 

[nuraman00]

FED vs. Steve Johnson starting.

 

[bksballer89]

Early break point chance for Stevie

 

[nuraman00]

FED saves 2 break points to take a 3-2 lead.

 

[bksballer89]

First set to Sam

 

[nuraman00]

Jack Nicklaus was in the studio the past 20 mins. After watching FED, he's going to watch Serena and Murray.

 

[Hs0022]

I am actually catching some of the Fed-Johnson live on tv
