Fed got this. Groth is going to lose 6-4

 

[Hs0022]

Deuce back.

Fed has to withstand the first serve and take cuts on seconds. Which he does. Ad Fed.

Fed gets the break as he dips his shot below the net cord which Groth has trouble volleying. Back on serve. 3-4 fed serving.

 

[bksballer89]

Hate to say I told you so but I told you so

 

[Hs0022]

Groth cannot harness his power game well enough yet. He is 26 so it's almost too late. Good experience for him. Fed moves on next is Granoller.

Why is Sabine smiling like she's on the playground with friends. Maria is going to beat her like she stole something?

Great job Federer

 

[backupboo]

why is she smiling, she's ticking me off. so childish Maria is no smiles she came to take care of business. worse day in tennis. Too many seeds dropped

 

[bksballer89]

It's just tennis.

Why so serious?

The schedule is out for tomorrow.

What are the chances that Kohl eliminates John in the 3rd round of the US Open for the 3rd straight year?

In other news, as usual on labor day weekend saturday they rather showcase the big guns on Ashe in the day rather than the night so tmr Novak & Serena are on Ashe in the day while Bouchard & Kyrgios are on Ashe in the night. I'm surprised they put Kyrgios/Robredo instead of having Isner/Kohlschreiber on Ashe.

Armstrong has more known players on than Ashe tmr. They have Kvitova, Murray, Isner, an Wawrinka while Ashe will have Pennetta, Novak, Serena, Bouchard, and Kyrgios.

It's just an observation, why be a jerk/

It's one of the common mistakes American English speakers make. It's amusing really. Back to tennis, shouldn't you be worried about the favorite that is still left- Serena? Despite your weird verbal usage I find you likable unlike a lot of other hardcore sister nuts. There is an innocence in the venom you spew. Maybe there is a tennis fan in you somewhere who can appreciate tennis outside of the WS.

Maybe your German is better than your English. Lol at someone who hates players who beat his favorites to the extent that he makes scurrilous accusations against them.

Kvitova down a set and a break.

Where is Cezero & Old Lion?

 

[Old Lion]

I have been in and out. Saw Krunic beat Kvitova. Stood right next to her last year at the open watching a match on a side court. She is very tiny and looks like she is 15.

 

[bksballer89]

Serena in a tight set right now. Lepchenko with the great winner just now.

3-3

 

[Hs0022]

Yes!!! Make fatty run and exploit her lack of quickness. Drop shots please!

 

[backupboo]

6-3 Serena takes first set .

 

[Hs0022]

I dunno why these girls don't make Serena hit 10+ rallies in a point, she hits the ball out after that pretty much.

 

[nuraman00]

Venus lost again. Should have retired five years ago. Just can't hang with the current crop anymore.

I still like watching her play. Her matches can still be entertaining.

She plays because she loves to compete.

And she can still win Doubles.

 

[nuraman00]

Good serve and volley from Fed, mix it up. The camera seems to zero in on edberg's face every time fed misses a volley. Great passing shot down the lane by Fed from his backhand.

Lol.

 

[nuraman00]

Had to step away but returned to find Fed serving for the set at 5-4. Interesting point at 15-0
Game and set points. 40-0

6-4,6-4.

Agree, that was fun.

It started on the left side, then went to the right.

Finished with an overhead.

FED kept giving Groth slices.
