Indian Wells, BNP Paribas Open, Masters 1000

[Federberg]

early signs are that Roger's serving better

 

[Federberg]

still a lot of unforced errors though. But great D from Delpo

 

[Front242]

Incredible backhand winner there a few points ago.

 

[Federberg]

starting to feel like the only thing going well so far for Roger is his serve

 

[Federberg]

great rally

 

[Federberg]

shocking miss there from Roger

 

[Federberg]

set point

 

[atttomole]

Del Potro breaks to love.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Broken at love.. The first pt at the net was the easiest of his misses in this game.

 

[DarthFed]

DP stands a mile back but gets enough on the return especially with Roger hitting bad. Good surface for Del Po against Roger.

 

[Federberg]

I really think Roger should be trying to draw him forward as much as possible and also he should camp at the net. Delpo is a rhythm player

 

[Federberg]

That backhand isn't looking that vulnerable anymore

 

[DarthFed]

Not hitting clean off either wing, kind of vanilla Fed action.

 

[atttomole]

Del Potro is getting to Roger's serve easily.

 

[DarthFed]

Roger needs to step back on DP's serve, he isn't putting enough in play.

 

[Federberg]

what on earth is he doing hitting to his forehand

 

[DarthFed]

Weak stuff from Roger, felt worse than 6-4

 

[GameSetAndMath]

JMDP's backhand is not a weakness anymore. He is hitting passing shots, drive shots etc from the BH wing. He is serving too good.
More importantly, he is hitting "thumping winners". Hope he cools down soon.

 

[Federberg]

Weak stuff from Roger, felt worse than 6-4

It was a Sampras 6 4. Looks close by the numbers but really wasn't

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Fed needs to protect his serve fiercely bare minimum.
