Murray is dominating this scrub.

 

[perfectchaos007]

This is not airing in my country's ESPN. t_t What did she say?

The most snarky remark she gave was when asked about who will win the AO now. She said something to the effect of "Well now with Sloane in the semi's that opens it up for just about anyone". Overall it was fairly tame.

One of the ESL Asian reporters awkwardly asked Serena a dumb question about grunting and being a mentor for Sloane. Serena answered it as well as she could

Lol..

Only *thing* I noticed that came off as a little funny in the post-match conference was when the lady asked Serena about giving Sloane advice and whether she would keep doing it. Serena said "Honestly, I've never really given her advice".

Actually though, I think she was trying not to steal any thunder or whatever...not trying to be that old "I taught her so much" type player.

She seems pretty content for the most part. Serena is not the personality that will ever go up there and smile after a loss.

Edit : Ron Paul beat me.

 

[Ashhong]

Ice cold

 

[Niraj]

This match is awful. If this is a 6-0 set, I think I'm going to give up on it. Not sure how Chardy beat Murray down in Cinci :/

Edit: He won that game just to spite me

Edit2: And got a break back, awwwwww yeaaaaah

Jennifer Capriati is shading Serena on twitter:

U guys know your stats well it is great to see another American and she seems to be sweet.. it's about time there was someone else to challenge... Maybe tennis will become interesting again. I've seen enough Serena to last a life time..lol

She backed down quickly!

Wow such unbelievable cruelness.settle down people.no need to try and be abusive.not sure what I said but be funny and actually compliment

 

[qindarka]

Chardy turning it on. Might have a match on our hands.

 

[darkwing]

Chardy turning it on. Might have a match on our hands.

meh it's just one break

 

[lazybones18]

Would like Li Na to win now.

Though I wouldn't mind Azerenka or Sloane.

Same

 

[zero_suit]

Might have a match on our hands.

Negative.

 

[rangersfan414]

Well Murray didn't choke.

I wonder how set 2 will go.

 

[qindarka]

Negative.

Just one set and Chardy played well after the horrific start. Not that I think he will win but it could be competitive.

 

[rangersfan414]

WTF @ The crowd singing "I Want Candy" song from a decade ago.

 

[qindarka]

Seems like I was wrong.

 

[rangersfan414]

Seems like I was wrong.

It's all bout Roger and Tsonga tonight

 

[Coldnoodle]

Chardy swings like a fucking madman. Reminds me a lot of Soderling :lol

 

[Niraj]

He's gotta hate himself after that

 

[Coldnoodle]

Murray has some unreal defense.

 

[zero_suit]

Murray has some unreal defense.

Of course.

 

[PS3GamerKyle]

Just woke up, the Murray match appears to be a washout.

Damn, Azarenka destroyed Kuznetsova. Go Li Na!

 

[inm8num2]

Murray has some unreal defense.

He's a Scot. Defending in tennis is nothing compared to defending against the Brits!

 

[The_Hitcher89]

He's a Scot. Defending in tennis is nothing compared to defending against the Brits!

They won the set, but Britain won the match

 

[PS3GamerKyle]

been watching this match for 5 minutes now and it's sooo boring

Can't wait for some real Tennis in about 2 hours! Go Federer

 

[zero_suit]

Total destruction

 

[perfectchaos007]

Total destruction

It's only going to get worse for the French contingencies tonight.

 

[Timbuktu]

He's a Scot. Defending in tennis is nothing compared to defending against the Brits!

I'm sorry, but right now scots are still British.

 

[Diprosalic]

Yes! Serena is gone. Womens tennis saved.

 

[perfectchaos007]

That was a great win for Sloane Stephens and she has a bright career ahead of her, but I hope ESPN doesn't get carried awa.....

Dammit

 

[MrCookiepants]

Yes! Serena is gone. Womens tennis saved.

She is the only good thing about women's tennis.

 

[Good Job Bob]

Fed should take this in 3 or 4.

 

[Niraj]

Fed should take this in 3 or 4.

Hope so. I can't stay up for this, so I'm hoping I wake up to a comfortable Fed win. I'm not too worried about it.

 

[inm8num2]

[sfedai0]

Fed looking pretty in pink.

Don´t worry about this game, Tsonga is a bad joke when he faces a top 10 ( 0-11 against top 8 players last year).

 

[Kozak]

Don´t worry about this game, Tsonga is a bad joke when he faces a top 10 ( 0-11 against top 8 players last year).

Maybe hes not as good as the top 8?

 

[Niraj]

Don´t worry about this game, Tsonga is a bad joke when he faces a top 10 ( 0-11 against top 8 players last year).

Yeah definitely not worried. Hasn't lost to him since that Wimbledon loss. He'll get through, just want it to be sooner than later.

 

[Smellycat]

Federer is sluggish so far.

 

[Good Job Bob]

Federer is sluggish so far.

Yeah, first serve percentage is crap as well; if he makes it through he'll have to be way better to beat Murray.

 

[Smellycat]

Heck, he needs to step up his game if he wants to avoid a 5 setter today.

 

[Smellycat]

Thank God

 

[Moneyhats2k5]

Was worried for second.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Tsonga with a break in the 2nd set though.

 

[Moneyhats2k5]

Look like Fed will save it for the next set.

 

[Smellycat]

I hate it when ESPN switches to that baseline view.

Federer needs to wake up in time for the 3rd set.

 

[perfectchaos007]

1 set a piece. Maybe this can be a classic after all, but most likely it was just a fed hiccup

 

[Moneyhats2k5]

We have a match now.

 

[Moneyhats2k5]

Is it just me or is Jo limping? Cold weather

 

[perfectchaos007]

Fed can't consolidate the break. back on serve
