2014 Aussie Open QF: Federer vs. Murray

[brokenshoelace]

Roger can afford to be more aggressive on these 2nd serve returns.

 

[brokenshoelace]

Roger is attacking the net more and all, but if you listen to Wilander, youd think he never used to leave the baseline before.

 

[brokenshoelace]

Good hold for Murray, but more aggression on the returns AND using the DTL as a change-up would be a good idea.

 

[tented]

Murray still only serving at 56%; Fed is at 80%

 

[brokenshoelace]

For Roger, I think its just about attacking Murrays second serve a little more. Maybe even chip and charge on a big point.

 

[tented]

I know Im getting ahead of myself, but Id love to see this Edberg-infused Roger play Rafa.

 

[brokenshoelace]

Better return by Murray there. Nice depth.

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

those muppets keeping federer waiting.............

 

[tented]

Theres a sense of calm and confidence about Roger which has been MIA for a long time. Compare this to the USO Robredo match.

 

[Moxie]

Too soon…frankly Im not interested in watching my grandmother play Rafa right now.

 

[Front242]

for tented. Its like a head transplant

 

[Front242]

for sure even*

 

[Front242]

what a shame after getting that ball back!

 

[Front242]

another gem of a BH

 

[tented]

Another awesome DTL BH

 

[brokenshoelace]

Two bad forehand misses and that could be super costly. I think Fed runs away with it now.

 

[tented]

Roger breaks again. This is going quickly.

 

[Front242]

2 for 2 on BPs. Good stuff Roger

 

[Front242]

less than an hour and almost 2 sets over

Murrays not at the races today. Still some way to go before hes "match hardened"
