L O L !

Had not heard that one before.

 

[Kirijax]

Whew. Sweated that one out. Good to see Murray get through. Verdasco's next? Gonna be another tough one.

 

[tented]

SP for Roger!

 

[britbox]

Get in there Feddie.

 

[tented]

Great shot! First set to Roger, with a rousing "Come on!"


EDIT: Edberg looked pleased.

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

yayy..a roaring fedster.

I am so happy the brazilian cable TV is showing re-runs of a WTA doubles match. It is so important to change from the mainstream.

Edit: Now they are showing WTA singles players warming up. It is getting better.

Hi mrzz,

You could try one of these:

Sometimes I despair of Roger. I don't know what type of strategy that was in losing that first game. He just kept going to Gulbis strength... ssssssh idiot at work!

 

[mrzz]

^ got one already, but i'll try these too. thanks Tented!

 

[DarthFed]

Too many backhand to backhand exchanges for Roger. For Roger against Gulbis that is a losing strategy the vast majority of the time.

 

[Federberg]

^exactly

 

[britbox]

Immediate break back.

 

[Federberg]

Of course it helps if Gulbis is acting like Father Christmas. Maybe he's arrogant enough to think he definitely wins this so he's using it as backhand practice


Sigh... maybe I'm being harsh and he's trying to breakdown Gulbis strength

 

[DarthFed]

I see big bad Berd got through easily

haha that's a good one!!

Does he worry you as much here, though, as, say, Wimbledon?

 

[DarthFed]

Still enough wackiness in Ernie's game and there always will be. That alone will keep him from becoming a serious threat, he definitely has the game for it despite that forehand.

 

[Federberg]

Yup. The weather report becomes critical for Roger (assuming he gets past Gulbis). He ain't beating the Berd man a cold wet day
