Arena Federer/Nadal/Djokovic Era - Now 1/3rd Over

Semifinals tomorrow:

I don;t think it's unrealistic to think that the underdogs can win tomorrow. Del Potro beat Djokovic with ease when they played for the Bronze Medal on the Wimbledon grass last year. Janowicz beat Murray at the Paris masters last year and Murray did not play his best vs Nando.

I would put Djokovic at a 60/40 favorite. Murray at 70/30.

I expect Novak and Andy to each win in 4 sets but both to be very tight matches. It will be a good day of tennis.

 

really good match so far. i have to leave for work soon though.

 

to me delpo is the one guy who is right there with the big four when he's on. really fun player to watch too.

 

The McEnroe brothers are really starting to irritate me. Every single thing to them is a product of something emotional or physical. It's never about tennis tactics or anything.

Del Potro is playing very well, did not play a good tiebreak though

 

He did that time!

Awesome match so far. Rallies in the 20s, stunning recoveries. Worthy of a final.

 

just an incredible match so far. both players fighting off break points in the 5th. thankfully i've been able to watch it at work. don't want it to end.

edit: looks like i jinxed it. djokovic serving for it now.

 

Can't see Potro winning now. Shame really

 

ah man, really thought delpo was going to break back there. but djokovic got that same look that he had when he was down match point to federer in the u.s. open a couple years back and i guess he just doesn't lose when he gets that look. still, what a battle. great match from both players.

 

wow interesting to see Novak get annoyed with the crowd there in the end. There's going to be a lot more of that Sunday if Murray wins in the upcoming match.

amazing match. Del Potro have a fantastic effort.

 

murray drops the first set with a double fault on set point. yikes.

 

Janowicz showing some fire. Murray needs to give the crowd something.

 

GSM Murray. Crowd being ridiculous

 

roof closing controversy.

 

I think the match could have ended without needing the roof closed, but it was understandable.

Should be a good final between the top 2 seeds

 

It's crazy to me that after all the upsets, we have a 1-2 finals match.

 

My thought exactly.

Though that's far from the case for the women's final
