2014 Wimbledon Quarterfinals: Djokovic vs. Cilic

[Fiero425]

He still needs to hold his serve and serve it out possibly. He's had trouble serving matches out recently.

If you mean Nole, that isn't a first! I don't know what it is, but against just about anyone, he's lost his serve at inopportune times like his USO year! He should have won in straight sets in the final, but I said to myself, he was going to drop serve to Nadal and lose that TB! It happened! It's not like he made errors; maybe pulled back a bit and players take chances that have paid off! It happens a lot; believe me! :nono uzzled :angel:

There never was a possibility of him winning in straights. He was clearly outplayed in the first set which Nadal won 6:2. Until the end of the third set, which Novak by the way lost 4:6 and not in a tiebreak, a four-set-win seemed realistic, but there's no way to reasonably claim he should have won the first.

I guess you're talking about last year! I said Nole's USO year which meant 2011! That should have been a straight set win; thank you very much! :nono uzzled :laydownlaughing :angel:

There's no "should" when they play Nadal, brother...

Oh sorry than I misread it and there is some truth to what you said. But in the third set of the 2011 final both lost their serve three times, so it wasn't coming out of nowhere that Novak couldn't serve it out at 6:5. And I think especially off the ground that was one of the best sets, if not the best, Nadal ever played on hard courts.

In your opinion! BTW, The last "What's up..." got to 100 comments, so a new one was produced yesterday; #13! :angel:
