Barclays ATP World Tour Finals - Day 2

[Denis]

:gross::gross::gross:

is it that bad? i havent been able to watch

You would be sticking thumbtacks in your eyes Denis. It is truly THAT BAD.

:gross::gross::gross::gross:

I see it now. Strange.

 

[nehmeth]

It's like the first round of a 12 and under tournament.

 

[tented]

Does Jimmy Arias EVER shut up?! He's making Gimelstob seem meek.

 

[tented]

Point of the match.

 

[Denis]

Well, that was a good point. Poor approach by Roger though, but he got the point.

 

[nehmeth]

Novak cussing in Serbian.

Arias is the worst!

 

[Denis]

The crowd is a bit partisan lol

 

[tented]

I would have bet a significant amount of money that Roger would have lost this tiebreak.

 

[Denis]

Into the decider we go.

 

[Moxie]

Roger could do with some more cheap points in this one. And what was up with Nole before…trouble seeing under the lights?

 

[the AntiPusher]

This is going to be a break at love. When Nole gets momentum it's tough and Roger will come out spraying errors.

Oh Ye of little Faith Lord Darth Federer

I would have bet a lot of money he would get broken at 5-6. Exact same thing happened with him having set points at YEC last year, and the 2 USO matches.

I don't know, but did you hear Arias making fun of Djokovic when he needed an eyepatch? Arias is awful.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

The set Roger won might prove to be crucial even if he loses the match
(as efficiency is part of the deal to break ties)

 

[Denis]

The set Roger won might prove to be crucial even if he loses the match
(as efficiency is part of the deal to break ties)

sets are the deciding factor in case of a tie in matches won?

what about h2h?

 

[Denis]

Novak confirms the break.

 

[Garro]

The set Roger won might prove to be crucial even if he loses the match
(as efficiency is part of the deal to break ties)

sets are the deciding factor in case of a tie in matches won?

what about h2h?

"Standings are determined by: 1) Number of wins; 2) Number of matches; 3) In two-players-ties, head-to-head records; 4) In three-players-ties, percentage of sets won, or of games won initially to sort out a superior/inferior player, then head-to-head records; 5) ATP rankings"

what about h2h?

They break ties using h2h if only two are tied. If three are tied, then they
break the ties using sets wons, games won etc in that order.

Thanks, Garro! Great to see you.
