Great few points there.
New balls now, hopefully Murray serves his way through this game. Ferrer is still in this.

shame they can't reseed, i want my fed-nole final. whoever wins tsonga vs. murray/ferrer will bend over in straights against the superior player coming from the other SF.
of course murray will end up winning it all and make me look like an idiot.

2 minutes to close, 25 minutes to regulate the air inside.

With the roof closed I can see Murray losing now, it suits Ferrer's style better as the ball moves slower in the more humid air.
Thanks
They're showing old matches on my stream but don't know who those people are
edit, there's Agassi. How did they not realize it was a wig back then :lol
I was glancing at it occasionally during work. I'm back now, though.

Damn. I can definitely see Murray going through to the final now.
Feel bad for Ferrer, such a classy opponent.

correct about everything
andy murray has once again reached the highest level: the semi-final.
I felt more sorry for him when he lost Barcelona final earlier this year. He keeps his rivalry with Murray competitive, whereas beating Nadal remains elusive since 2004.

dream final would be federer - tsonga for me. coincidentally the only possible slam final that never happened before.
worst case djokovic - murray with murray winning.

Worst case is Djokovic winning. The sport needs someone other than Rafa/Nole duo winning slams.

I'm hoping for Federer-Murray final, but expect Djokovic-Murray, with Djokovic crushing.
I like Tsonga, but Fed-Murray final would just be legendary with 7th title vs. first Brit since whenever in Wimby final. Also, Fed would win in straights, so that's always good.

If nothing else, if Murray were to make it to the final, I think Fed-Murray would result in the least shamelessly partisan crowd; Fed's just too likable.
The crowd would still be incredibly partisan, of course. Just not quite as much!
After a zillion years of Federer dominating, Djokovic would be the WORST case...with the reason being cited that someone is winning too much?
OK.
The last 9 majors were won by Rafa/Nole, yes even Federer winning his [most likely] final slam would be a good and refreshing story breaking the current monotony.

Federer didn't have to do anything really. Youzhny played one of the worst matches I've ever seen. Even Patric McEnroe was saying that. They said Youzhny's wife just gave birth a few hours before his match started, maybe that was on his mind? I dunno, but he was atrocious.

You mean Fed was at some point in 18 finals of 19 consecutive slams, whereas Djoker has been in 6 finals of the last 7 majors? I agree that Fedal domination was boring, and I think Djoker winning AO in 2008 or Delpo USO in 09 were very refreshing. But it's not 2008 anymore and Federer winning here would be also refreshing at this point, possibly someone else would be even better.
Yes.
I didn't think Fedal was boring; it was fun watching the top guys trying to breakthrough....and Djokovic, so far, has been the only one to do it (if you exclude del Potro's win).
I don't mind domination by anyone. If you're good, you're good and it's up to everyone to catch up. Besides, I'd rather have this than the everyday nightmare called the WTA. If you want something "refreshing", then they have it in spades.

Fed - Murray final is what I hope will happen. Would be happy at either outcome from it. Djokovic would be a deserved winner too of course, I just want to see some more competition in slams.

Kerber/Radwanska is the most boring match I've ever watched in my life
