DP takes it!!

Someone give this man an icebath LMAO

Vesely’s returning is aweful.

I think that's the case with almost all of the younger players. Just about everybody under 25 can't return serve to save their life.

This tourney may end up being the return of Djoker. Won't know for sure until the semi if he gets there but he's brushing aside semi-dangerous opponents with ease again.

I saw some fire again at RG, notably the match he lost actually. He seems cool and ruthless at the moment, but he hasn’t been tested. I think Rafa would be better for him than DP tbh if he gets there.

I think Djokovic takes out Federer in 4 or 5 sets in the final. Unless it rains in the final and it's played indoors.

Agreed...up a set and a break vs. Khachanov. From his social media, he also seems to be in a fighting mood (apathy seems gone) which is really only good for tennis.

I don't, I'm hoping for that final. Fed owes him a good asskicking.

I’m fancying DPs chances against Rafa. They might need to reserve the court for the two all day tho.

Assuming DP doesn't f'up and gets there, I just don't see Rafa blowing that QF. Do you see Rafa losing to a guy he just bagelled in a USO SF? That too after waiting for 7 years to get back to the his beloved clay courts of second week Wimbledon?

I too have a bad feeling about DP stinking it up vs Simon. And if not he may bend over for Rafa again, he hasn't really been competitive with Rafa in an important match for a long time now aside from semi-important Olympic semifinal in 2016. And Rafa already won gold so DP had way way more on the line there.

This is what annoys me about DelPo - and I said something last week about how all of these guys get hyped up to play Roger...but don't do that against Nadal. On grass you would think that DelPo would say to himself that he has a much better chance because grass is not exactly Nadal's BFF. But...I'm not expecting much. He'll undoubtedly have a new injury between now and Wed...

Potro is such a sloth between points. He always gives the impression he won’t last another game. He had better win this in 3 sets if he wants a chance against Nadal.

Where is my favorite commentator, R Koenig?

 

[DarthFed]

DP already down a break in the 3rd. People actually think he has a prayer vs Nadal on these high bouncing courts?

 

[monfed]

DelPotro thinks he's playing a moving wall.

racquet smash coming up from pony

 

[GameSetAndMath]

I was hoping JMDP can beat Rafa. But, the way he is playing today, he does not stand a chance.

 

[DarthFed]

I still think he might not even win this. Really disappointing match for him regardless of the outcome.

Nadal is playing great atm, quite impressed. But this is his first QF here since 2011. It’s not his surface. DP on the other hand is actually not that bad and can play first strike tennis. It will be an interesting match for sure, but DPs chances will be better than those of jiri journeyman today.

 

[monfed]

Feliciano Lopez must be thinking why on earth did he become a S&Ver in this era.

Some good news for you feddies: temp will drop soon at SW17 for the rest of the week.

I always thought so about Del Potro. He seems to play his best tennis against Federer. Maybe it's that 2009 win at the UO that gives him confidence against Federer.

Question for all the feddies: did Fed go to Djokovic’s local thrift shop and pi

There really isn't anything wrong with this surface for him this year. His problem is first week with normal weather where he simply doesn't have any game and is vulnerable vs anyone. This court is bouncing stupid high, it's pretty fast but he cares more about height of the bounce, that's what makes him strong or weak.
