2014 Djokovic - Federer Wimbledon Championship Thread.

[nuraman00]

A multi-deuce game on Djokovic's serve, but FED never got a break point chance.

 

[nuraman00]

FED to play a return game to stay in the set.

 

[nuraman00]

Break point.

 

[nuraman00]

1 set all, 1-1 in the 3rd.

 

[nuraman00]

FED with a quick hold, 4-3.

 

[nuraman00]

Was that really a 4-ace game? "Quad aces", as Chris Fowler said.

I don't think I've seen someone do that since Todd Martin at the USO in the 90s.

 

[nuraman00]

Both players winning points in seconds.

 

[nuraman00]

Rod Laver once won a set in 13 minutes.

 

[nuraman00]

FED saves break points with scary good serving.

He wins the game.

 

[Smart]

It's away tougher to hold after you nearly break. Fed needs to be intense here. Don't let this set get to a breaker.

Gonna come down to another important tie breaker

 

[nuraman00]

FED should not have gotten that point on the overrule, they should have replayed the point.

Regardless, it didn't matter, as FED lost the next point, and eventually the tiebreaker, anyways.

Djokovic up 2 sets to 1.

 

[nuraman00]

Djokovic's service games are a mighty struggle. FED can't get into them still.

 

[nuraman00]

Then again, I didn't like FED's return games against Alejandro Falla, Julian Benneteau, over the past few years. He needed 5 sets to beat them, because he couldn't break them for the first few sets.

 

[nuraman00]

FED down love 40.

 

[nuraman00]

DEUCE #@!#

 

[nuraman00]

FED hits an inside out forehand out.

I loudly groaned.

Djokovic breaks.

 

[nuraman00]

I hate FED slices, I always think they're going to hit the net.

 

[nuraman00]

So FED is doing great on his serve games, even against Djokovic. Which is what I hoped.

But I didn't expect FED's return games to be so uncompetitive.

I could see why when thinking about other matches in the past (Falla, Benneteau, Tsonga), but I also pictured FED making more returned serves, at least.

He's not even returning serves.

 

[nuraman00]

15-40. I clapped my hands.
