2015 Cincinnati Masters Final: Djokovic v. Federer

[Fiero425]

No Novak fans here to congratulate Federer? What a surprise. And they get so sore when people don't congratulate the Monegasque.

... or commiserate with poor Andy who worked so hard to get to #2 for "5 minutes!" How will he cope? :nono

Well, it's clear that any player can't play perfectly well all over their career, impossible. They must to have up and downs due to diferent issues but until they retire nobody can say if they are able to improve or not and Roger is the proof at least until today, good for him!
Ranking numbers? it can change anytime

Really? This?? Thanks tented.

Just said goodbye to company and logged on to say....

:clap Congratulations Fed :clap


... but that cheap post sucked all the life out of it.

Still, to his fans... all the credit to the attacking player. He's in good form for the U. S. Open

Jeez, I watched the match at the gym!

Great tennis from Fed. He really didn't let Novak ever get to a rhythm. Phenomenal tennis from Fed here! I enjoyed watching it, when I could forget the other guy was Novak.

Is there an unwritten rule about congratulations? Why should Novak fans congratulate Roger? I don't think I've ever congratulated a fanbase after Nadal lost a match (would have been awkward to congratulate the Lopez, Nishikori, Fognini, Brown, etc... fan bases). I'd much rather tell them that Kokkinakis banged their significant other anyway.

I won't say what I think of all of you with that idiotic statement and joke! Far from laughing here! :ras: :cover

Much respect pavlik. Always so fast uploading the highlights. Been able to check out lots of great highlights of the matches I wasn't able to see lately as well. Big thanks.

I know I yelled congratulations to Lopez, Nishikori, Fognini and Brown alone in my apartment. :laydownlaughing

Disinterested.

I'm fairly certain it has nothing to do with interest.

They are surprising numbers considering how solid Novak generally is on hards. He's won the AO, IW, Miami, Rogers Cup, Shanghai, WTF, Dubai, Bercy, etc., but not Cincy and only 1 USO.

I think the heat in Cincy and New York gets to Novak. He said something the other day about it being tough. I know it's hot in other places as well, but that late summer heat and humidity in the Northeastern US can be brutal.

Yeah Pavlik is easily my favorite poster to never post in written form.

The most interesting thing is the new tactic on ROS. It surely contributed to the 3 DFs that Novak coughed up.

 

[Johnsteinbeck]

I am positive there will be some of those half volley service returns from Roger at the Open. I guess he is figuring second serve is the shortest ball he is going to get from some guys out there...

Loved those. I'd really appreciate a highlight reel with just these returns. Did it against Anderson, which seemed crazy enoug given his serve. Doing it against Murray is logical regarding the poor2nd serves, but risky given his passing abilities. But against Novak was really the masterclass.

True but nothing like Melbourne where he's the king so I doubt it's the main reason for him not doing as well. It's the faster surface.

This thread is a like fest. Seems everyone is trying to restore their likes asap

Miami can also be super hot & humid.
