2017 Australian Open Day 7: Sunday, Jan 22 - Order of Play

[kskate2]

oh wow, a double break to Samurai 3-0

 

[Front242]

Ouch.

 

[El Dude]

Terrible start for Roger. The rest of the set should be about figuring out how to disrupt Kei's return, which is simply killing him.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Samurai is both able to read and return Fed's serve nicely. Hope, Fed's game picks up after some time.

 

[kskate2]

I think Samurai smelled blood w/ Novak and Andy going out. He wants to reach another final.

 

[Front242]

Roger has only one solution. Continuously serve body serves. Kei is reading them too well any other direction. Hopefully he cops this.

 

[kskate2]

Finally a hold. 4-1

 

[Front242]

At least he's on the board now.

 

[Front242]

Whoa, I just read Misha Zverev beat Murray. Wow!

 

[kskate2]

yeah, you're about an hour and half late to that party

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Fed's serve is finally finding the mojo.

 

[Front242]

yeah, you're about an hour and half late to that party

Haha yeah. Guessed as much. Just got up at 8 for this match.

 

[El Dude]

Psychologically Kei can't lose this first set. Roger gets one of those breaks back.

 

[Shivashish Sarkar]

After seeing nishi play this good, I would rather call him Shinkansen after this not Samurai.

Roger is rolling now, but he still is down one break. If he gets it back here, Kei is done.

Nishikori got hosed by the umpire on that overrule on Roger's for..he now serving at 5-4

 

[Front242]

Kei is screwed now.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Even Steven. Fed has warmed up.

 

[kskate2]

5-5. Samurai is done

 

[El Dude]

Kei is folding like a tatami mat.
