2020 Australian Open QF: Federer vs. Sandgren

[Moxie]

Wow, he just got right up on that lines woman when he got a call on audible obscenity? A bit aggressive there.

Fed gets warning for audible obscenity.

 

[Nadalfan2013]

Disgusting behaviour by Federer he cursed the F word then when given the code violation he makes a whole scene on break point. Even try to intimidate the woman lines judge. Pathetic. His opponent managed to hold thank God but Federer still arguing with the umpire. Everyone and their mama heard the F word all over the universe. Now Federer all of a sudden is leaving the courts to break his opponent’s rhythm. This is a new low for our sport.

 

[Moxie]

Now the trainer, and Fed leaves the court. Of course, (@Front242) Roger only does this when he's really hurting, and it couldn't possibly be gamesmanship.

He said f*** in Swiss German in the heat of the moment. When called on he did not realize what he said. Chair ump said she cannot repeat it as she is on Mike. So, Roger went to lines woman and asked. Once explained he became quiet.

That is not being aggressive.

He did not threaten to shove up balls in her throat.

I pity you. He’s a cheater. He made a fool out of himself and stormed out of the court to break the opponents rhythm.

The only good thing about what he did is that we are seeing the main referee up close and she’s beautiful and a nice person.

I bet that's not what he said. But were you watching? He's Roger Federer, and he went right up in that lines woman's face. Wouldn't YOU be intimidated? And, no, he didn't become especially quiet. He kept complaining to the chair umpire, who just sat there like J-Lo and smiled.

Well. In Sandgren's first service game after the medical timeout Fed barely goes for much. I'm sitting here wondering if Federer is now just out here to finish it. He won't retire. Never has. Likely never will. We'll see how this plays out.

I don't know Swiss German and so I don't really know what he said. But I fully believe it is some kind of obscenity. The ESPN commies said it is universal obscenity and so I assume it is f word

 

[GameSetAndMath]

If Roger loses this set, I don't see any more hope in this match.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Fed is clearly not moving. AT LOVE 30 IN THIS GAME fed did not even try to retrieve a not too difficult ball.

 

[Moxie]

Probably the back, then. If that's the case, he's not going to win this match.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

This is over.

Wrong. He wasn't quiet for quite a while. Carried his rampage into the changeover where he continued to fuss at the chair for doing her job. So try again.

 

[Moxie]

I don't want Roger to be ailing, and I really don't want Sandgren to win this match. Hopefully the pain meds will kick in.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

The only interesting thing is that I think Sandgreen's game might cause Novak some trouble too

I don't know what is there h2h. Need to check.

They did not show the change over thing as it happened on tv. They showed it only later.

 

[AnonymousFan]

Regardless of when it was showed. It happened. Stop making excuses for him.

I saw it, and so did you. See remarks farther upthread. They showed it fairly immediately.
