For some reason every crowd loves Fed, i'm certain they do it to piss off Manics.

I so so so want Del Potro to go through (because that gives Soderling the best chance of winning).

And btw, you are a friggin' god for this, I was pissed because I couldn't watch this match (my cable sucks).

Federer loses third set 6-2.
Federer wins fourth set 6-1.

Nothing makes sense anymore.

 

[John Dunbar]

Really curious to see how Del Potro will go into the fifth set. I don't peg him as a quitter.

 

[MIMIC]

:lol wtf happened in the 4th set?

The 3rd and 4th set has a very WTA-like scoreline. The 5th will obviously be won 6-0.

 

[clemenx]

Here's hoping for an epic 5th set but i think Federer turned on the god mode switch after the break. I hope Del Potro can do well.

 

[Journeywalker]

This one is going the distance. I wish I had a live feed.

EDIT: OH SHIT! Early break for Fed.

 

[bud]

del potro's done. he's not even moving anymore.

I think you're right..


edit: maybe I spoke too soon!


edit2: or not...

 

[Crisco]

Federer has been putting consistent pressue on JDP's serve since about half way through the 4th set. This shit is probably done.

 

[clemenx]

What a weird game, Del Potro looked unbeatable the 1st 3 sets.
:lol :lol :lol Crowd chanting Roger

 

[Desperado]

I missed the 4th set, Fed broke Del Potro twice? Crazy. Looks in control at the moment.

Or not..

 

[d+pad]

Ugh, this is how I thought/feared the match would go from the start. Del Potro has a chance if he can start the 5th with a hold, but if not, I think he's done.

 

[John Dunbar]

seems like federer has tamed this noble argentine.

 

[totoro'd]

Awesome, c'mon Fed

 

[clemenx]

:bow Fed.

 

[Desperado]

Fed god mode.

 

[Peru]

What a crazy match.

 

[Keen]

holy shit at drop shots!

 

[iamcool388]

Damn... that drop shot.

 

[MIMIC]

If Federer wants to win, he's gonna have to hit a zillion drop shots so he can get tall ass Del Potro to the net more often so he can pass him.

I coach Federer on the weekends.

 

[Crisco]

Del Potro has to hit unbelievable shots to win any points, impossible to do that consistently.

 

[iamcool388]

I coach Federer on the weekends.

How is it easier to pass a tall guy at the net?

 

[unomas]

I get back from Home Depot and Wal-Mart and 2 sets go by? WTF? 6-2 Delpo? 6-1 Fed? Weird, and now Fed up a break in the 5th. It's funny, we get glimpses every once in a great while of the old Fed, maybe for a set or two but never for a full match anymore.

Oh, and to those wondering why the crowd is so pro Fed, I think they realize what this accomplishment really means if he wins the tournament, and most people that have been watching pro tennis for a long time also know that someone like Federer is a once in a generation player at best. It's good that the French crowd is showing an appreciation for that.

 

[Keen]

ooooh, damn!

 

[Batongen]

I think Federer will win this. Well if you've beaten Nadal, surely one can beat Federer also.

 

[navanman]

OMG shot of the tournament!!

 

[unomas]

Come on Raja, make him your bitch.

 

[bud]

I think Federer will win this.

no way! :lol

del potro's very tired now. too bad he couldn't keep it up.

 

[Desperado]

Roger tastes victory.

 

[iamcool388]

If Federer keeps up this level of play, Del Potro cant do anything. Its over.

 

[Peru]

del Potro seemed tired in the 4th set, but not so much anymore. Running like he's fresh out the shower. Some great tennis to and fro now.

 

[clemenx]

Oh shit! what a shot! there's a game!

 

[Desperado]

Fed making mistakes again...

 

[woodchuck]

omg fed choking

 

[suffah]

Epic set incoming.

 

[bud]

holy shit

he's back!

 

[Keen]

omg fedbot glitching, DP back in it!


Epic set of matches today!

 

[John Dunbar]

We have a match again. :O

 

[bud]

dammit

 

[suffah]

Fed will break, win serve, break for the victory.

 

[Vomiaouaf]

Can't believe I'm missing this. Is there a feed available around here?

 

[John Dunbar]

3 break points for Federer now.

 

[Keen]

System reboot? Wth is happening? :lol

 

[liquid_gears]

I wish the commentators would get their head out of Fed's arse. He is brilliant in flashes and is akin to his old self at times, but not too much more than that. They would have us believe that Fed will destroy Del Potro in the final set, but it isn't as simple as that. I want him to win, but Jeez, get back down to Earth.

 

[bud]

it's too bad del potro's first serve's failing him

 

[Akira]

Federer is so predictable: short slice, backhand pass. But his opponents are predictable and they keep hitting to his backhand whenever he does that.

 

[d+pad]

Wow, I was sure DP was down and out at 3-1 down in this set, but now he's back in it! Go go DP!!

 

[clemenx]

Wow, he saved them!
