Auatralians are in the midst of school holidays. Some will have work tomorrow but my whole family is glued to the screen right now.

Yup, but I have Mondays off.

Nice.

 

[Duracelllll]

Im watching (from Perth). Epic match, that point to win the fourth set was insane, and then Novak saving the four break points in the ninth game, crazy!!!!

 

[CurlySaysX]

Wawrinka is finished.

 

[Pachael]

Is anyone in Australia even watching this anymore? People have work and school the next morning.

I'm watching. Good book ender to yesterday. Epic so far.

I have to wake up in 5 hours for work...

 

[Rezbit]

Agree with commentators, Wawrinka needs to go balls out on Djokovic's serve. No point putting the ball back in his slot.

 

[rangersfan414]

Alright I can't handle it anymore, so I'm going to bed.

Hopefully this isn't all for nothing, and Stan can actually pull away with the victory.

Yup still watching.

You can't go to bed now!!

 

[Shancake]

Feel like this could be it! Unlucky with that ball on break point that was in a few games ago

 

[Diprosalic]

it will be, he won't.

It's only 12:20.

 

[clemenx]

They ought to try something at some point while returning.

One advantage of living in a state without daylight savings, its only 12:20.

 

[Ash_69]

What's Stan pointing to all the time?

I think he's signalling at the ridiculously oversized ball boy to pass him his towel.

 

[mclem]

Remember when this was a routine match that'd be over in two hours at most?

 

[Ydahs]

Yep, great match. Both are out on their feet at the moment.


Crowd's getting impatient.

 

[Globox_82]

you guys are idiots, this is not stan, this is federer in stans costume...

 

[clemenx]

Nah, Federer would have choked the serve after those BP lost at 4-4. And I'm a Fed fan

 

[Diprosalic]

you guys are idiots, this is not stan, this is federer in stans costume...

federer would have put this away in 4

 

[Rezbit]

This is brutish lol, come on guys go hard on return!

 

[Ydahs]

And here we go again...

 

[MrCookiepants]

Okay, they need to wrap it up now.

 

[Shancake]

This is brutish lol, come on guys go hard on return!

You realise they've been on court for 5 hours right?

 

[Diprosalic]

You realise they've been on court for 5 hours right?

whats the record for longest single session game?

 

[Pachael]

Ha, with that last hold the match is now longer than yesterday's long as match Simon/Monfils. (4:43)

 

[Smellycat]

Wawrinka should have lost the point after challenging the call. Now he won it.

 

[Rezbit]

You realise they've been on court for 5 hours right?

Of course, but they're athletes. They are still doing 200km/h serves. They should be able to smash a few back in the return games, but they both seem pretty complacent at the moment.

 

[Yagharek]

I could watch this all night.

 

[Globox_82]

there should be TB in 5 this makes no sense imo. who ever goes through he is done.

 

[clemenx]

I don't think you realize how demanding high level tennis is.

 

[Sax Russel]

Nah, don't worry, Djokovic will have Berdych next and Berdych will just flop over like a wet noodle.

 

[Rezbit]

Of course I do. As a spectator I would like to see them go nuts on the return. But they both seem reactive on the return rather than proactive, even though yes, I know they're both exhausted. Just a thought.

The reason they are putting more energy into serving than returning is because its far more important to hold serve than break at this point.

 

[Diprosalic]

knew it...

 

[clemenx]

Noooo.

 

[Regulus Tera]

Noo Stan!

 

[Coldnoodle]

[Lach]
