Well Front, I think your cat is beckoning. This one seems to be going three.

Sadly, it seems like it. :mad:

Novak's 1st serve % has gone to $h1t here.

I'll be impressed and happy if Novak digs his way out of this game.

Maybe not, he saved both break points, but it's not over, definitely:snigger

another break points....instead of being up double breaks, they will go back even on serve, probably.

Yeah but that momentum shift favours the guy who's broken even if it's just back on level terms.

It's probably not too many, but I feel like Nole wasted a dozen break chances. I am sleep deprived from last night, please go easy on us and finish this! Idemo!

Have a feeling he'll lose serve here unfortunately. Sleep time will maybe have to wait for us both.

You were right, although your cat could probably guess that Nole would lose a serve at some point.:nono

She's asleep on my lap now. I was hoping to be back in bed by 7:30 but not looking likely now.

I was going to check to see if you were still on board. Your lad's not looking so bad now.

This happens to Nole again and again! He pulls back ever so slightly, misses a few first serves, and the next thing you know we have to add an hour to the match! lol! :lolz:

Let's go Nole, let's go. He really does complicate his life on tennis court. I am not conceding this set yet;)

Glad someone finds it funny! Normally I wouldn't care but have off peak gym membership last few months and have to get there before 12 today and could do with some more sleep :mad: Will be seriously fed up if this goes to a 3rd set now.

Well, a love service game was just what the doctor ordered there at least for Novak.

Cry me a river! I'm still trying to recover from Aussie final in 2012! I was up all night into the morning trying to tape it to VHS format! I'll never forgive Nole for losing that 4th set! It made no sense to drop serve, then lose the TB! 5:53? OMG! :nono :puzzled :angel:
