so fed should retired in 2006?

szaromir · Aug 15, 2013

Arthur Ashe, Louis Armstrong, and the new court Grand Stand with 12k seats will all have retractable roofs. Completion in 2018. Woohoo.

Now all we need are fucking floodlights at French Open.

Tsonga's out of the US Open with his knee injury.

I absolutely hate that I've become suspicious of tennis.

szaromir · Aug 15, 2013

Why is the crowd in Cincinnati so excited whenever Ferrer wins a point (even after Tursunov's UEs)? I don't understand.

Yeah, I wish ITF would openly clean up the sport (not saying Tsonga is a doper).

Her camp, her father and her agent didn't know she was going to retire. She tweeted the day before how excited she is to play New Haven (ie. next week). She was crying when announcing her retirement. When a player acquires an injury, usually she announces immediate withdrawal from upcoming events, but not retirement. Everything about this case screams silent ban.

Haas and Federer are playing - the clash of kings of variety. I've never seen anyone return Roger's second serve so aggressively to be honest.

Niraj · Aug 15, 2013

A bit unlucky with that net on break point. If Fed loses the day before I get to see him...that's going to really chap my ass.

On second thought, at this rate, do I even want to see him? He'll just get embarrassed by Nadal anyway.

Edit: 6-1...what a clown

szaromir · Aug 15, 2013

This is just depressing. Roger's mojo is gone.

Reyne · Aug 15, 2013

Uh, yeah. Sad to say I'd rather this Federer does not face Nadal even on fast hard court.

szaromir · Aug 15, 2013

Already broken. And he won this tournament last year without dropping a single service game.

Exactly. This is still fucking pissing me off though, just because seeing a Federer-Nadal match would've been awesome live, even though he'd get his shit packed in playing at this level.

Sax Russel · Aug 15, 2013

Yeah Haas is doing is a favor.

bowery · Aug 15, 2013

got high hopes for nadal at the open....should be a good one. it's probably murray's though

Coldnoodle · Aug 15, 2013

3 break points for Federer...

2 break points for Federer...

Edit: BREAKERER

Reyne · Aug 15, 2013

Uh, Federer not ready to pack up for flushing just yet apparently...

Coldnoodle · Aug 15, 2013

Federror.

perfectchaos007 · Aug 15, 2013

Isner took out Milos again

Coldnoodle · Aug 15, 2013

Dear lord, Federer is moving in slow motion.

szaromir · Aug 15, 2013

Roger steadying the ship. Fabulous to see him regaining some composure.

Reyne · Aug 15, 2013

Now lets pray Grigor upsets Nadal tonight.

Niraj · Aug 15, 2013

Keep me updated Tennis GAF

Reyne · Aug 15, 2013

Tough hold for Fed. Missed two chances to break Haas earlier as well. This could go either way.

Coldnoodle · Aug 15, 2013

Haas is really attacking the second serve.

Reyne · Aug 15, 2013

B-b-break! Fed serving for the match.

zero_suit · Aug 15, 2013

It looks like Fed wants to get beat down by Nadal again.

szaromir · Aug 15, 2013

Rogelio is serving for the match. Who would have guessed after the first set debacle

Coldnoodle · Aug 15, 2013

FEDEREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER

Sax Russel · Aug 15, 2013

Welp. Fed-GAF, lube up for tomorrow.

For Dimitrov?

Reyne · Aug 15, 2013

I did not expect Federer to win this match after that terrible first set. Looks like Niraj gets to watch Nadal toy with Federer tomorrow after all.... unless Dimitrov have some something to say about it

Are you going to both day and night sessions? What matches/who do you want to see tomorrow on centre court? I'm jealous

Niraj · Aug 15, 2013

szaromir said:

Yeah both sessions. Aside from Delpo and Fed...not sure. Probably Murray since I didn't see him last year. Last year I saw:
Fed v Fish
Delpo v Chardy
Djoker v Cilic
Raonic v Stan
Venus v Stosur
Kvitova v Pavlyuchenkova
Li v Radwanska
And just caught the end of Serena v Kerber

There were also a few delayed fourth round matches, like Wozniacki v Pavlyuchenkova

It's pretty accessible, you just pop in and out of the smaller courts. Got to see some other people practicing as well, like Djokovic, Venus, Woz, etc. It's pretty fun, and not terribly unreasonable ($60 per session for qfs). I'd def recommend US Tennis GAF to check it out sometime

Sorry for the late response, been driving

scarlet · Aug 16, 2013

@MindTheRacket Radwanska routs Vesnina in 50 minutes, withdraws. Grandfather passed away earlier, wonder if she's headed to funeral.

i really wanna see williams vs aga again.

And she appears to be in fantastic form.

Come on Dimitrov, take the set at least.

Rafa=FedKilla · Aug 16, 2013

Vamos Grigor!!!

Wut the hell happened to Goffin today?

Reyne · Aug 16, 2013

And he does

Niraj · Aug 16, 2013

Gooo Dimitrov lol

Maria pls.

So basically she is going for the US Open coachless. :lol Good luck with that. Why not at least wait for it and see if there is any improvement? Though I have to admit that it always seemed like it wouldnt work out, they are both way to stubborn.

Niraj · Aug 16, 2013

Delpo looking solid so far

1 set all

perfectchaos007 · Aug 16, 2013

So the night matches are Fed/Nadal followed by Wozniaki/Azarenka.

I hate how organizers think it's a good idea to occasionally make the womens matchup the headliner. When will they learn?
