US Open, Flushing Meadows, NY USA - Grand Slam (Men)

I don't know what happens tonight but I will not be as harsh on Roger I have seen some good tennis for two sets. He has time to play into form...if he can get out of this pickle.

I will put it like this, looking ahead he'd have lost to Deliciano tonight most likely and if not him then Nick would have trounced him. I don't think that back is healthy and he can't go far if it doesn't hold up

I'm not being harsh on his play, just still pissed he pulled a Rafa with his schedule before this. Play Cincy, probably win it and enter USO as heavy favorite. That was the easy plan staring him right in the face. But he screwed the pooch and this is the result. I don't think he's 100%, he's moved really bad aside from 1.5 sets (mid 2nd through 3rd)

Darth, the thing is, there is no guarantees either way. What if he skips Canada, plays Cincy and gets hurt there ? The problem , in my opinion anyways, was not the scheduling. It was the total rookie mistake of playing a tournament unprepared. You just cannot do that in any age, let alone at HIS age...

How should he have he prepared for it?

On the court, playing tennis. In his own words, he did not.

 

[Moxie]

OMG...he got the break back. Well-done, Frances.

 

[DarthFed]

Good God not another USO chokejob

 

[DarthFed]

Just pathetic. He will probably lose 7-5 now

 

[crystalfire]

y did fed not take that volley wtf

 

[DarthFed]

A total refusal to win

 

[Moxie]

Just pathetic. He will probably lose 7-5 now

Relax, Eeyore. It's not over yet.

 

[DarthFed]

Let's fucking go Roger

 

[Carol]

Frances now become crazy with a huge anxiety and loses the serve...."

 

[herios]

It seems he's about to. Best case for Tiafoe, really, was to come this close. He seems to be making up ground as one of the comers amongst the young guns.

He was helped by a rubbish Roger. He did not convince me yet.

 

[Moxie]

Federer drops the f-bomb on that miss. lol

 

[kskate2]

Fed is a lucky S.O.B. LOL

Just asking...He went into Montreal without having practiced on hardcourts?

 

[Carol]

You see? he lost the serve, set and match, what a shame!

 

[Moxie]

Relax, Eeyore. It's not over yet.

What'd I tell ya? But great performance by Tiafoe.
