Note that there was no whining when Fed's projected 3rd round danger, Coric, went out. That seems a fair trade, (and equal "luck." For your buddy, Monfed.) You guys are becoming insufferable, including with the insults.

There is an obvious difference, Fed doesn't need a good draw or any breaks at Wimbledon while Nadal...just saying. Both got pretty good draws I'd say, and nice early breaks with potential threats going down.

Come on, if they give you 300 million, you would even play naked.

Exactly. I don't get what is all the whining about Roger leaving Nike.
Like if you are not wearing Nike is a catastrophy.
I personally never cared about Nike.

I think Fed on the stretch to his FH is more unstable than his rally BH.

Big servers, Querrey and Medvedev are through in 3 sets.

Nah, Fed looks good. He could have a bad off day aside from that I really think Cilic is the one that can beat him even if he's playing decent. I like what I'm seeing from Roger today.

2nd set Fed is the Fed I've been waiting for since start of the year.

Fed is really timing the ball beautifully on the FH. Love the acoustics off the shots in CC. Wish I got a chance to play on it in my lifetime.

I think John McEnroe sometimes gets bored by Chris Folwer's questions.

Feel sorry for Lacko, his game deserves better on grass. I feel a tinge of sadness when Fed beats a beautiful player like Lacko because these players don't get a lot of chances to go deep in slams.

For Fed, I think his game may have finally clicked into gear.

Fowler is completely clueless about all things tennis and Mac is old skool.
Fowler may be considered to represent tennis fans that know little about tennis, or fans that are new to tennis. I prefer somebody more knowledgeable about tennis than Fowler.

Great performance, sucks that he is going to face the big tree. That can hurt the baseline rhythm. He plays like this though and he ain't losing to anyone.
