That doesn’t happen very often. Roger beat Rafa today 6-3,6-0. Yup in one hour and one minute. Unreal. The two didn’t play each other much this year. Actually first time in almost six months. Lucky Tom Nash he witnessed one of the greatest of the Rogi / Rafa rivalries. Roger was full of confidence and hitting with his magic wand. His guided missiles… His …anticipation…. His timing…. His being so alert and aware and focused. Funny for a match that Rogi started with a double fault. Followed by an amazing performance for the ages.
Pure domination.
Interesting about the coin toss with the two of them. If Roger wins the toss he always options to serve. If Rafa wins the toss he chooses to receive. So do they really need to toss the coin? Keep watching the mighty Federer. The brilliance is beyond words. .. Quotes. ” I’m excited how I played tonight. I’m very pleased. There’s always pressure. Never underestimate the pressure. ”
Andy Murray has been forced to withdraw. Poor Andy and his groin injury. We wish you well.
One man’s bad luck makes good luck for another. 10sballs.com is thrilled for Serbian great Janko Tipsarevic. Yup. He gets to play in Andys spot. He plays Tomas Berdych tomorrow. Also fellow Serb Novak Djokovic plays David Ferrer.
Pretty fantastic for Serbia. Two players in the singles. The Spaniards: Two players. The Indians three in total in the doubles. America had a Fish and two Bryans
So excited for Max Mirnyi and Daniel Nestor. They’ve clinched a spot. Federer has clinched a spot. This is a fantastic event. Hard to get to. It’s kind of like the tennis center in Carson California. Or the staples center. Not quite the easiest place to navigate. And the tube schedule is limited and messed up the night session for the fans one night. Leave or pay a ton for a taxi home if you can get a cab.
The ball kids are awesome.
The Barclays ball kids are the worlds best.
The lines people so so. Why they imported some from the US?
The UK has a huge pool of great lines people ….
