Fed does seem to be warmed up, starting to look more like big versus little brother.

This is what I was saying. He plays his best v Federer. He inspires him. And since it is not about slugging it out Ninja finds it more fun.

Was thinking exactly the same - as well as the headband they even have a similar style of reaching out for their forehand, neck kinked to one side.

Maybe Uniqlo had a couple of words with Ninja, to play good and make the brand shine on both players of the central court hahaha

Much better play now, go go goooooo

Can Sam become The Man and do it?
I say -30%.

Is that enough?

Had some celery sticks with cheddar, washing it down with some sublime chabilis.
Now fancy some quality chocolate but have none... Wah

To tipsy and lazy to drag myself out of bed and get some... Laugh

V much doubt it, he's just broken Querrey in game 3 to go 2-1 up with serve. That's usually the match right there with Nadal.

Killjoy! (or Git! in yahoo's lingo)
he could've made some effort for at least one set and allow us to dream... Grr

I wouldn't mind Nishikori's 'never say die' attitude if he didn't frequently fold in the end, but only after he's stuffed his opponent over for the next round.

by noleisthebest Wed Jul 10, 2019 5:30 pm

I noticed players in general are not scared of the net as in the past, to which I say - good and about time! Applause

Nishi has become the blanket.

Court not slow enough for Nadal.

by barrystar Wed Jul 10, 2019 5:46 pm

Nadal having a real battle with Querrey - as ever with him this first set is absolutely key.

Nishikori battling against relentless pressure on his serve - he's been doing this since the 4th game in the 1st set.

by noleisthebest Wed Jul 10, 2019 5:46 pm

Why has Nishi won nothing with that talent?
Well, unfortunately he is a bit thick....how else can his coming to the net on the second serve at 15 all be explained...

by Tenez Wed Jul 10, 2019 5:47 pm

It's amazing how someone who cannot simply cope with pace can win 2 Wimbledon....

by legendkillar Wed Jul 10, 2019 5:50 pm

He set himself up for that FH and still fucked it.

Adds to underwhelming nature of this Slam.

by barrystar Wed Jul 10, 2019 5:51 pm

Nadal has got that first set now, 1hr but he'll be more relaxed, and a more relaxed Nadal is hellish dangerous.

by Tenez Wed Jul 10, 2019 5:51 pm

French commentator (Santoro) taking the piss at the referee for not tackling Nadal on time wasting.

The funny thing is that for Naxroy we are the bad boys who dislike a "great chmapion"....but cannot see she is supporting a serial cheat.

by barrystar Wed Jul 10, 2019 6:00 pm

And Nadal grabs an early break in set 2, he is such a strong starter, it's a devastating way of putting pressure on your opponent.

by naxroy Wed Jul 10, 2019 6:03 pm

Santoro must be tired of interviewing Rafa everytime he wins in Paris

by bogbrush Wed Jul 10, 2019 6:04 pm

This Federer match should have been over half an hour ago. Hope he doesn’t pay for it.

Assuming he wins, it will not have been >3hrs, and he has not faced that most physically, and above all mentally exhausting task of repeatedly defending his own serve. He's been rattling through his service games and pressurising his opponent. If that takes too much out of him he does not deserve to be a contender.

by bogbrush Wed Jul 10, 2019 6:20 pm

At last!

Wasn’t thinking of the fatigue but the freak loss scenario.

by Jahu Wed Jul 10, 2019 6:24 pm

Not a bad match at all, bit scary first 3-4 games.

Nadal awaiting now.

by barrystar Wed Jul 10, 2019 6:27 pm

Winning in four sets, 2hrs 36mins, faced 6 bp's of which 5 were in the first two serving games of a poor first set, and forced to up his standard. A good win and a reasonable test - he has shaken off any complacency caused by the last outing against a poor Berrettini.

by legendkillar Wed Jul 10, 2019 6:28 pm

100th win at Wimbledon for Federer. Immense record.

by barrystar Wed Jul 10, 2019 6:28 pm

First man ever to win 100 matches at one slam.

by barrystar Wed Jul 10, 2019 6:31 pm

FFS - Nadal breaks in the 1st game of the third set as well.

by N2D2L Wed Jul 10, 2019 6:31 pm

Fed really improved there. Fedal match 5050

Needs 3 more at the AO to reach that milestone.

Nadal you'd expect to make 100 at RG in next 2 years at the most.

by Jahu Wed Jul 10, 2019 6:31 pm

First ever to win 9 Wimbledon's too.

A good week this one will be!!!
