Barclays ATP World Tour Finals - Day 2

[tented]

Bryans blow a 4-0 lead and lose the super breaker. Dodig/Melo are tough customers.

Tough loss, but it was a fun match. Nevertheless, it's a nice change of pace to watch doubles.

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

Can the Bryans be on the way down?

Can the Bryans be on the way down?

I think it's more the competition has closed the gap.

So the "match of the day" is coming up. A little concerned that this may not go well for Novak.

[Denis]

ger was a step short on the first point, he must have not liked that given Novaks comments :devil

 

[Denis]

Good start for Nole.

 

[nehmeth]

Good start for Nole.

He doesn't look red eyed and tired like he did in the Bercy final.

Neither does he look like Ferrer. :snigger

Both mean business from the start.

Poor Farquad.

Roger still has some fantastic kill shots. That inside out forehand that landed inside the service line - wicked.

Thanks Tented. I can't use espn here because of our provider. Denis, frombar.com looks good so far.

Thanks

I like Federer's body language a lot. And his backhand up the line is looking pretty good. I still think Novak wins this but it's nice to see Federer playing well so far.

Greg Rusedski commentating... :gross:

 

[DarthFed]

The bounce is perfect for Roger but it is too slow for him to beat Nole at this point. Roger so far is doing everything well except the return and that's a huge problem in his game everywhere.

I am very sorry... at least it's better than having to watch him play.

 

[Denis]

First player to have a lousy service game loses the set.

 

[Denis]

Thats right, pound that backhand.
