Yet to see Fed serve above 120 yet. Nadal must be disappointed he hasn't made inroads on the Fed serve.

He has money to have his shorts and thongs be custom made surely, but he loves to scratch his butt.

Mrs LK would put such an act down to not wiping properly. Which is a whole other discussion all together.

Maybe he uses that old-fashioned shiny stuff that my grandparents used to have?

by noleisthebest Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:02 pm

I dunno about you guys, but this match-up is looking old to me.
No buzz yet. At all.

Looks like it's a matter of time before Fed gets broken and Rafa romps on.

OH OK I thought it was bigger than that.

More scary is Nadals average points have been 3.5 shots, while Feds 3.4 so Nadal been short playing a lot this W.

Break the madafaka nowwww

Oh Fed

by Jahu Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:08 pm

hit a fucking FH sometimes, not just slicing

by luvsports! Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:09 pm

Just couldn't get even in that bp rally.

by Jahu Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:09 pm

LS is here, Fed gonna win !!

by Tenez Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:09 pm

Lucky Nadal. Line ball on BP...

by legendkillar Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:10 pm

Fed serves a 125. Quite fortunate the Nadal return has been poor so far.

by barrystar Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:10 pm

Has Fed won any rallies over, say, 5 points?

by legendkillar Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:11 pm

And another. He's bloody gonna need bigger serves!

by Jahu Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:12 pm

We need 1st set asap!!! Rafa don't seem too dangerous so far.

I don't think the forum nerves could take a TB.

by legendkillar Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:16 pm

Hasn't felt like a 36 minute set.

by legendkillar Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:17 pm

Was that a sign of frustration from Nadal?

by barrystar Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:18 pm

The tiebreaker score is 10-11 Nadal

by N2D2L Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:18 pm

Ball not bouncing ffs

Hasn't really felt like anything much to be honest. In keeping with this dreary tournament so far it's not a classic. One point of drama thus far.

by Jahu Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:21 pm

Fed should take the TB, better 1st so far. And he betterrrr

by barrystar Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:26 pm

Oh dear - there was me being all reasonable before the match, and that get by Nadal reminds me of how much I dislike his success against Federer.

by luvsports! Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:31 pm

ALLEEEZZZZZ

by Emancipator Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:32 pm

Fed returning better and more aggressively off the BH.

by barrystar Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:32 pm

AAAAYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEE

by Emancipator Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:32 pm

Fed was the better player - deserved that 1st set but..

we know Rafa's going nowhere

by noleisthebest Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:33 pm

Wow, what a TB from Fed! tennisball

by legendkillar Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:33 pm

I bet that felt like divine justice. Not hating on Nadal, but my did he win some points in that TB he had no right to win!

by Emancipator Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:33 pm

Very average set of tennis.

But of course they're better than ever.

but he did..because he is simply that good. It took me awhile to get it, but I'm glad I did.

by barrystar Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:34 pm

Fed has edged ahead in my key stat of % winning on 2nd serve

by noleisthebest Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:36 pm

Fed's shaken off his rust, FH firing, BH deep, serve decent.
Let's see how far they take him today.

by Jahu Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:36 pm

Keep it up, take the second set 6:2.

by paulcz Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:36 pm

Super tb from Fed. The start of the second will be the key for winning it. Come on Roger!

by naxroy Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:36 pm

key set that was

hope rafa can get next one.

by barrystar Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:37 pm

Oh Castle - don't big up David bloody Attenborough. Everyone who becomes a national treasure seems shortly after to reach gitdom, and I fear Attenborough is about to edge himself over that precipice

by legendkillar Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:43 pm

Fed looking to put his foot down and Nadal now slowly upping the ante.

Nadal slowly reeling his man in I fear.

I have to say you won't see BP's defended like they have been so far in this match. Exceptional clutch play.

I dunno. That's the only service game he's been trouble probably since the opening service game of the match.

Federer is looking to take charge where and whenever. Only thing is he might burn himself out doing so.

by Emancipator Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:48 pm

Fed needs this set

by Emancipator Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:49 pm

if he doesn't win in three I doubt he'll have the legs to win 4 let alone 5

by barrystar Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:49 pm

Fed is seeing Nadal's serve very well indeed.

by luvsports! Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:50 pm

Huge hold there Big Grin

by legendkillar Fri Jul 12, 2019 5:51 pm

I can only assume they've put some miracle grow on Centre Court as it's not looking as beaten as Court 1 did couple of days back.
