Mannn, WTF was that.

 

[Mortemis]

Fed loves to keep people on edge.

Good fight Tiafoe.

 

[Diamond]

Federer seems like he's not really there. Even in his winning celebration. I doubt he'll be a contender for the title.

 

[RedAssedApe]

2016 Fed wins!

damn watchespn and their delayed feeds!

 

[Niraj]

Have to feel bad for Tiafoe. Shame he got Fed first round.

 

[perfectchaos007]

watch tiafoe gets broken

Of course he would, Tiafoe is an American mens tennis player. Its what they do!

 

[Sax Russel]

*releases breath

Or... *exhales. So tense I couldn't even think of the word =P

 

[Twenty7KVN]

Ahhhhhhh good showing tho by the youngster.

 

[Smellycat]

ok hopefully that was Federer's crap match of the tournament

RIP Andy Roddick. I got into tennis too late and only got to see his last two years Aesthetically GOAT serve, pretty good all around (for an American man, lol).

 

[Niraj]

I'm hoping it's like Wimbledon 2012 where he struggled physically a couple matches but was alright for the rest of it. Strong possibility he'll get Youzhny next which should help him since he usually plays really well against him.

 

[Marvie_3]

So glad Federer won. Would have been bummed to see him lose in person.

They showed a stat that Federer hasn't lost to an American in a slam since 2001.

[BorkBork]

Frances "It can't be that good" Tiafoe? I predict great things for him in the future.

So, when Tiafoe was 3 years old?

 

[Diprosalic]

Got a heart attack when i woke up and my brother wrote "Federer ��" in the middle of the night.

 

[oti]

In German we call that a "schwere Geburt".

 

[Niraj]

Got a hard attack when i woke up and my brother wrote "Federer 🙈" in the middle of the night.

Whatever turns you on

 

[Deadman]

Just watched the highlights of fed/tiafoe, there were some great points.

Not sure if this has been linked already but its a pretty interesting read about his life story.

 

[Ricker]

Hey guys,guess what...Bouchard lost,against Rodina,kudos to her but she can barely walk in between points and has a very ordinary first serve...she will get crushed by Svitolina but then again so would of Bouchard lol...

 

[OceanicAir]

Is Kyrgios losing even an upset anymore?

 

[Niraj]

Roger's draw just got a little easier

 

[aronnov reborn]

Is Kyrgios losing even an upset anymore?

that seemed like a really bad loss.

 

[Niraj]

Bellis totally blew this match. Shame.

 

[RedAssedApe]

Kyrios is such a headcase not to mention a glass cannon.

 

[d+pad]

Ah, yes, I knew that just as I started to think of Kyrgios as "the real deal" he would start to stink it up again :|

 

[Merchandise]

ESPN showed a sizzle reel of Kyrgios moments from the match... and it was long enough to be someone else's sizzle reel for an entire tournament, LMAO

 

[LegendofDragoonLives]

not seeing goaterer win this folks, better keep your expectations in check

 

[Deleted member 231381]

I suppose I'm rooting for Zverev on new blood principles and Tsonga on 'you really should have won one' principles, and they're both in the same part of the draw. Yeesh.

Maybe this can be the Year of the Del Potro?

 

[oti]

Brown gonna win this tournament I'm telling you.

 

[Frankfurter]

Dustin Brown is always so damn fun to follow

 

[BorkBork]

Fed still seems like he's in Montreal form, just limping along before he meets someone who'll just straight set him.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Bellis peaked when she was 15

 

[perfectchaos007]

Sharapova in a battle. She just won a point after the ball on her court bounced twice but the umpire didn't see it. Babos was rightfully pissed

 

[Merchandise]

Marsha don't win that first round just to lose here

 

[perfectchaos007]

Sharapova lost the first set 7-6

 

[Frankfurter]

Did Sharapova cry?

 

[perfectchaos007]

Sharapova wipes her tears and wins the second set 6-4!

 

[oti]

Lisicki is lisickiying the third set super hard.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Sharapova WINS

 

[perfectchaos007]

McHale takes out Adele in 3 sets

 

[perfectchaos007]

Americans are now 0-5 in 5th sets in this tournament. American tennis, fuck yeah! Not even home court can reverse our fortune

 

[AoM]

Stuff like this makes me embarrassed to watch tennis.

Zverev down 2 sets to 1 against Coric

 

[John Dunbar]

zverev down 2 sets to 1 against coric. lost the third set tiebreak 7-1.

zverev doesn't seem to handle low slices particularly well. too tall, nyack nyack nyack.

Wow Sharapova grunts loudly!? I never knew....

 

[Kensuke]

Weak tactics from Zverev it seems. From the second set on he has been playing along with Coric's grinding gamestyle. And it's looking like Coric has more stamina and is just a bit more steady. It's a pushfest. Zverev needs to start hitting harder and end points earlier.

 

[sam12]

Venus getting better in second set

 

[Merchandise]

Called the ticket office at 8:20 and they said it would be a 20 minute wait to get a person. It's now almost 9:10, and the office closed 10 minutes ago. I've been number 2 in line now for 15 minutes. Ummmmmmmmmmm are they not even going to have the courtesy to hang the phone up? I feel like it's just ringing in their office with no one there right now?

 

[AoM]

Wow Sharapova grunts loudly!? I never knew....

They both were. And I'd describe them less as loud grunts and more as agonizing shrieks. It's laughable even to tennis fans, so I can't imagine what other people must think.
