Do it federer!

The pressure back on Roger 8-9 set ppoint

 

[nuraman00]

Blood draining tiebreak.

I screamed when FED lost that point at 8-8.

Still going.

 

[Liberal Icon]

My goodness, Roger. Another unforced error for setpoint

 

[Liberal Icon]

Back on serve.

 

[Liberal Icon]

Set point Roger.

 

[Liberal Icon]

He wins it.

 

[Liberal Icon]

This is going to be good. One set a piece.

 

[Old Lion]

Nice.

Fed needs to go for just about everything and get to net more. Anytime he gets into long exchanges he gets in trouble.

 

[nuraman00]

FED with a scary first-game hold.

Andy Roddick is providing commentary for the royal box, or something.

The last time Djokovic won a 1st set tiebreak, and lost a match, was against Roddick at the 2009 AO.

Djokovic is one hell of a competitor. You have to minimize your errors to win. And he gets stronger as the match progresses.

Man what a great match so far.

 

[nuraman00]

FED broken at 1-1.

I thought that last shot was in!

Need to see multiple FED breaks this set.

The clowns need to close the roof.

FED a statue on that return game.

 

[nuraman00]

The clowns need to close the roof.

Probably should have started with it closed.

Nice.

Fed needs to go for just about everything and get to net more. Anytime he gets into long exchanges he gets in trouble.

His unforced errors will go through the roof if he goes for broke. He is serving well and needs his rhythm which has been intermittent back. It is more a mental function than physical and it is raising the errors that put him in a break down.

 

[nuraman00]

FED with a quick hold.
