lol calm down. Davis cup is such a useless tournament. I don't know why players even bother to show up. Oh wait, they have to qualify for the olympics.
Federer looked like he didn't give a crap. haha

Tuned if for the last 4 games, Isner broke Fed twice easily, is this for real? What happened? Couldn't tell much about Fed's form, he just got blasted off the court in 2-3 strokes by Isner. Fed couldn't find his first serve but some of Isner's returns were ridiculous.
I'm calmed down, I added a disclaimer to my post, haha. This has been an hilarious match to follow on twitter. It's ashame that davis cup doesn't get TV outside of the countries that are playing. I like it.
Went to rotterdam yesterday and today. Saw a lot of players (including Federer for the first time!), tournament was really fun! Del Potro and Berdych are crazy to watch in play. I was mostly checking out one handed backhands of the pros, Gasquet's really takes the cake for me. Also tested my service at the machine and got 189km/h at most. I tried maybe over 30 services to break the 190 barrier but could never do it 
Djokovic has created quite a row after he asked the Dubai tournament officials to give his younger brother Marko Djokovic a wild card into the tournament....and they obliged.
Anyway, he's on right now on the Tennis Channel playing Andrey Golubev. Marko has never won an ATP match, I don't think (he's ranked 800-something). He's gonna have his hands full today

They probably would've given it to some obscure local player that goes on to get double bagled in 20 minutes anyway, so it's not that much of a deal imho.
lol
He is. I know exactly what you mean. He's a good player, but he just doesn't have the aggressiveness in his play to be one of the best. He goes through these periods where he just seems tired and jaded and has no fight left in him.
Saying that though, Tim Henman was just as infuriating to watch.
Yeah. In terms of talent Murray is the better player, but that didn't make it any less infuriating every time Wimbledon came up.

Results like that only happen in non-majors. John Isner beat Federer last month in Fed-Cup. Murray will never win a major
I think Lendl is working great for him. I still think he will get one in his career.

Isner wins and now looks like a rain delay. Two massive disappointments in a row =(
This match will tell us how much Roger wants that number 1 ranking!! With a win here and the final, he will be very close to the number 2 ranking, and if he has a great clay court season, he might go into RG as the number 2 player.
But he has a tough task ahead of him in this SF.
Also, that was a great match from Isner and Djokovic.

There's a rain delay right now.

Nadal looks like he's given up. Not the usual fight in him. But knowing Roger...he can still lose this match LOL
He's probably tired of beating Fed all the time.

Too soon to call it with a 1 set, two break lead?
You never know, lol.
Wow, Federer seems to be drilling Nadal's backhand, was it like that the whole match?
He was at US Open final too

Uh oh. Nadal mounting a comeback. This sort of always happens. LOL
