I feel Delpo has only 40% chance but if he serves great, given Djokovic’s BP conversion rate lately - he can pull this off. Also Delpo is coming in fresh into a crucial encounter after a long time.

 

[Federberg]

have to favour Novak, but I wouldn't be at all shocked if Delpo wins. He has a way of getting under both Roger and Novak's skin in big matches. 55 - 45 in favour of Novak I'm guessing

curious to see how much the crowd favors JMDP

I did check the weather for tomorrow, seems rainy, around 20 degrees.

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Don't care one way or the other as long as there is no fucking drama...Jeez...Just tennis please and may the best player win.

That may have been why I believe the roof might be closed; advantage Djoker! :whistle:

Djokovic wins in 4 sets. He is beginning to look formidable again.

"So long Pete; it was nice when we knew ya!" Nole's tie with Sampras is as good as going ahead I hope! Can you imagine another run to the FO like '15 Wimbl.-'16 FO; '18 Wimbl.-'19 FO? Is that asking for too much? I imagined and hoped for 2015; '11 w/ a YEC! :whistle:

I am not going overboard, I learned it in the last two years.
I take it one step at a time.

I am with you, herios. Nole hasn't yet convinced me that he is all the way back to his old self. Hopefully he wins, but if he has to lose to somebody, there is nobody better for me than Delpo!

Very happy to see you back Billie! Haide!

Thanks, not sure how often I can come, but I always think of you. Did you go to see tennis this year? I was on vacation, came back that week and only went for 1 day,, so I didn't have time to let you know.

 

[Vince Evert]

DEL POTRO Must Win and WILL WIN !!

 

[I.Haychew]

Hoping for a Djokovic win, but won't be too terribly upset if del Potro wins.

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

I don't mind who wins but I suppose del potro gets my vote after all his problems..

whoever wins though.. the last 6months tells us we have both players back at the top of the tennis tree.

After yesterday this will be about tennis. Hopefully? Of course ESPN will spend far too much time on the actions of the chosen one from the woman's final.

Much as that might delight Djokovic fans, that would only make it even more obvious that conditions have become so uniform to make it doable - twice. That 2015-16 record was considered all but impossible until 15 years back and nearly inconceivable before then. Even for a player as well rounded as Djokovic.
