[Murat Baslamisli]

Roger's second serve rocks so far. MP 4.

 

[kskate2]

body serve. MP #4

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Darn...Deuce.

 

[kskate2]

error. deuce

 

[Fiero425]

Amazing defense from Roger, but even better offense from Stan.

He has the tools; just not the heart! :nono uzzled :angel:

 

[DarthFed]

How many frickin MP's does it take?

 

[kskate2]

finally a 1st serve. MP $5

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

BIg serve down the T this time. MP 5...and that's all she wrote.

Good job hanging in there after the amazing first two sets from Stan.

 

[kskate2]

apparently 5

Took 7 min to serve it out! Someone's going to punish those boys; look out! :nono :angel:

 

[DarthFed]

Phew, got it done. That'd have been shades of Djoker at USO if he got broke there and managed to lose the match.

 

[DarthFed]

Now, go Nicko!

 

[Riotbeard]

Good on Stan for making work for it at the end.

 

[Kieran]

Good job, Roger! I missed most of it but it's a good result and he grew into the task, obviously...

 

[kskate2]

Now, go Nicko!

The kid is playing pretty well, but just dropped serve in the 2nd set.

 

[DarthFed]

Yep, and if you drop serve vs. Milos you lose the set it seems. Unfortunately Milos doesn't move like a total sloth anymore and has made other improvements. If it is him, Roger will have a tough time for sure. Against Nick I think the stage and opponent would be too big for him.

Yeah, last time I served for the match against the current AO champion to get a place in a major semi I did it in a much easier way.

I am beginning to feat Nick more than Milos. He is still raw, but the little I have seen of him is scary when you consider that he can get better. I think he will not have any stage-fright.

 

[Kieran]

I don't think Federer can fear one of these more than the other. Both have strong serves - neither has played a slam semi. The big obstacle was Stan, but Stan couldn't get the job done.

Trust me, Federer is playing too well to stumble against Milos or Nick...
