For anyone that has the opportunity to go. You must check out the temporary Louis Armstrong. It's such a weird, in a good way, stadium.

Also I love the new Grandstand. If the benches were more comfortable and some even shade existed it would easily be my favorite.

 

[mmazurkiewicz]

why doesn't this tiafoe dudes coach know how to clap?

what the fudge is he doing with his hands?

 

[Smellycat]

This is more like it from Federer. He found his rythm

 

[VistraNorrez]

I 100% believe Roger was thrown off by the acoustics of the closed roof. The city atmosphere is noisy.

Plus you could actually see him change his game to counter Tiafoe. It's really impressive in person.

My least favorite camera angle in the history of televised tennis! Why the hell anyone uses it, I don't know :|

It's terrible, honestly pisses me off every time they use it.

Like this?

I really like it, on occasion. Gives you a great sense of the speed and pace.

No not directly behind the back. It's behind the player but from a point on the ground pointing up.

 

[m_shortpants]

Break pointerer with the reverse curse

 

[clemenx]

So Fed will win in a never in doubt routine 5-setter. What a guy.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Even though this may go 5 sets, the good news for Federer is the sets have been pretty quick.

 

[Twenty7KVN]

Well fuck going to bed now.

Oh, so like this?

That's just strange.

Pretty much lol. I just don't see Federer losing this match lol. Tiafoe will throw a loose game eventually

 

[Niraj]

What the fuck was that set...

Oh, so like this?

That's just strange.

Yeah closer to that. It's seriously dumb.

 

[Smellycat]

Federer

losing 6-1? Not a good sign for the 5th to be honest.

 

[Merchandise]

TBH I'd like Nadal to win again so Fed losing here would be nice Still skeptical of this kid closing it out though.

 

[Diamond]

One of the strangest matches I've seen.

 

[RedAssedApe]

one american always seems to make some noise at the open

 

[AoM]

Given that Tiafoe beat (an albeit, tired) Zverev, I thought he might have a chance against Federer.

 

[Laughing Banana]

Wow, never dream of seeing Federer in danger of getting ousted in a round 128 match...

Well I suppose that was one time in Wimbledon.

 

[RedAssedApe]

easy holds are at least a good sign.

 

[Niraj]

Alright, don't give that shit back now

 

[Merchandise]

That was the worst drop shot ever

 

[AoM]

 

[mcfrank]

Come on Roger.

 

[FrigidEh]

My heart can relax again.

 

[RedAssedApe]

gotta love the swinging volleys

 

[Mortemis]

That was the worst drop shot ever

He regretted it immediately.

Cheering for Tiafoe but Fed has this locked up.

 

[Merchandise]

Ugh I wanna go but I don't have available friends

I'd go alone but I feel like a lonely loser

 

[Niraj]

Ugh I wanna go but I don't have available friends

I'd go alone but I feel like a lonely loser

I'd go with you if I were in NY

 

[RedAssedApe]

dont choke

 

[perfectchaos007]

[Niraj]

So dumb

 

[Mortemis]

Yoooooo

 

[shwimpy]

OH SHIT

 

[AoM]

[Smellycat]

Federer smh

 

[Merchandise]

Dude let's go

 

[Laughing Banana]

Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeshhhhhhh.

 

[Twenty7KVN]

Yo this kid.

 

[RedAssedApe]

haha he never makes this easy

 

[Phoenix RISING]

Yo this kid.

That dude does not want to go gently into that good night.

 

[clemenx]

Jesus christ Roger has to lose now lol.

 

[Remyzero]

He's got a wild forehand swing.

 

[RedAssedApe]

watch tiafoe gets broken

 

[Niraj]

Come on Roger

 

[RedAssedApe]

geez that error count

 

[perfectchaos007]

2016 Fed wins!

 

[shwimpy]

ha!

well done Fed.

 

[AoM]

Nice. Though it doesn't bode well for what's to come.

 

[clemenx]

Weird match. They both never played well at the same time. Great effort for Tiafoe tho. Must be proud.
