These have been god-awful quarter-finals. I mean, not even just two of them but all four have been complete snooze-fests.

 

[perfectchaos007]

2 Americans and 2 Russians in the final. Just like the old days of the womens game.

In the semis: Sharapova fans will be cheering on Keys. Serena fans will be cheering on Sharapova

 

[MIMIC]

Serena's first AO semi since....2010?

 

[Romez]

Crazy how anyone thought Cibulkova had a chance against Serena.

 

[Rock And Roll]

Serena's serve was nasty today.

I didn't. But I can't really talk because this was the only womens quarter I predicted correctly. lol

 

[Space Avocat]

How is Serena still this dominant at 33? It's incredible.

 

[Niraj]

Serena's first AO semi since....2010?

Pretty incredible, really.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Serena plays better with a cold confirmed

 

[LuuKyK]

Maria better pray and prepare her voodoo dolls, because girl you are in danger. Again.

Because she has a serve. Which can't be said about pretty much everyone else on the tour. lol

I was going to say she breaks serve more than anyone too, but her break points won are surprisingly in line with the other top players in the tournament. Either way, she's unstoppable when she's on.

Is that Peter Fleming commentating on Eurosport?

 

[Omzz]

omg wawrinka. that shot was so pretty

 

[one_kill]

Wawrinka's backhand is a thing of beauty

 

[tycoonheart]

Buckle up, guys. Think this one is gonna be a good one.

 

[Niraj]

Stan with the early break. Nishikori needs to settle down.

 

[LuuKyK]

Kei

Come on Emperor.

 

[Niraj]

Pretty easy set for Stan.

 

[Omzz]

wawrinka was ready to clobber that with a forehand and it cost him

 

[Niraj]

God damn Stan.

 

[Sax Russel]

That backhand wheeee

 

[LuuKyK]

PEAK Stan. Poor Kei. :X

 

[Omzz]

that backhand is so sexy

 

[DeSo]

That backhand, fuck.

 

[Space Avocat]

Stan is a barbarian

 

[Speevy]

No disrespect to Nishikori, but this is a beating.

 

[MIMIC]

Haha, that happened to me the other day. I dropped the racket...but I still (somehow) won the point, lol

 

[Deleted member 231381]

Samurai getting monstered.

 

[MIMIC]

Wawrinka's BH is basically a FH

 

[Space Avocat]

Too good is right

 

[Niraj]

Stan is just amazing right now

 

[zroid]

Kei is just getting handled here

 

[agrajag]

Stan came to defend his title.

 

[MIMIC]

Latest out call in the history of tennis? xD

 

[zroid]

ruh roh!

 

[MIMIC]

138 MPH serve xD

Wawrinka: I get unlimited challenges, right?

 

[Space Avocat]

Things are getttttting interesting

 

[zroid]

these lines

 

[Niraj]

Third set should be interesting. Seems like Nishikori has picked it up a bit.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Nishikori looks to be going out in straights. yawn

 

[Kensuke]

Feels hopeless for Nishi now. Even when playing well like now he can't touch this Wawrinka. His confidence is probably shot.

 

[Omzz]

feel bad for nishi

but wawa is playing out of his mind

 

[Deleted member 231381]

stan looking absolutely murderous, kei's playing really well with some great forehands and returns and they're still not even in the same class.

 

[Speevy]

Damn this shit really needs to be happening to Djokovic and not poor Nishikori.

 

[Rainy]

Stan is playing out of his mind. Hopefully not a straight setter.

 

[Niraj]

The fuck

 

[Space Avocat]

okay okay okay okay i see youuuu

 

[MIMIC]

That's right. Kill each other! *evil grin*

 

[zroid]

welp

 

[Deleted member 231381]

That's right. Kill each other! *evil grin*

Nish is just sharpening Wawa up so that he can be extra good against Djokovic. This is the Year of the Berd.
