2019 Australian Open, Melbourne - ATP GRAND SLAM

Set 3 is looking like Set 1 in which Tsitsipas dominating the baseline rallies but Federer is still serving well and clutch.

Tsitsipas went to his academy.

Oh, I see. Thanks.

 

[Front242]

Surely, Perseus is the best of the next gen.

Hands down.

Roger looks to be a busted flush here. No energy left after two long sets and this guy is not going to hand him the match

While he keeps protecting that serve, he's still in the match.

 

[britbox]

C'mon Fed. 2 BPs.

 

[britbox]

0/12 on break point conversions now.

 

[britbox]

Amazing rally.

Lol! come on man, he keeps making break points, and most of them his messing up. I'm concerned, don't get me wrong, but I think you're mischaracterising the match. He'll need to be a lot better particularly out wide. He's not playing those well at all

Agreed. Visually Stefanos is having the better of the extended rallies, but if you break it down then he's not really threatening the Federer serve at all (so far) and under huge pressure to hang onto his own.

 

[rafanoy1992]

I know Federer is abysmal on break points (0/12) but man, Tsitsipas has steel-like mentality right now. He is not crumbling or backing down.

 

[rafanoy1992]

0-30 on Federer's serve!

 

[britbox]

Once Federer starts getting heat on his own serve then I'll start worrying... That might actually be right now...

 

[Front242]

Roger is pushing like crazy. Woeful. Hit the damn ball like a man and not some RBA style pusher crap ffs.

 

[britbox]

Kudos for that cross court winner. Great shot by the Greek.

 

[El Dude]

That was a Rafa-esque shot there for Tsitsipas.

 

[britbox]

Big hold.

 

[Front242]

Mirka is gonna be taking out the gimp suit later I reckon. Poor Roger. It's his own fault.

 

[Nadalfan2013]

These shorts flatter Federer’s butt, not bad at all. :whistle:

 

[rafanoy1992]

Yup big hold from Federer. Let's see if Tsitsipas can build on that return game.
