Roland Garros / French Open [Men] - Grand Slam

[MargaretMcAleer]

Why do they start night sessions at 9pm? I know there is a curfew,still it is past Midnight
Why didnt they schedule night matches after the curfew ended?

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

This is like a Isner match all t/breaks

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Fed needs to serve now with the score at 4-5. If he goofs off, we go to 5th set.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

I still think the heavier night conditions aren't helping Roger on a lot of levels.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

5-5

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Roger broke and will serve for the match 6-5 dont stuff it up

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Fed breaks! one hold away from winning now.

 

[Nadalfan2013]

Federer coughing left and right.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Rogers wins takes the 4th 7-5
Still a of game left in the 'old boy"

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Roger ekes out a win!

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

fedster finally wins ..
he prob gonna want a really quiet sunday after all that.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Kopefer +15 on the differential and Fed -12 on the differential. That says everything about this match.

Kopefer being left handed also played a role in addition to this being their first match-up.

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

looked like hard work hitting winners through the court tho..all seemed turgid to me.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

With Fed playing 9th seeded Berrettini and Novak playing an unknown unseeded guy, expect Novak to be sent to dog-house again on Monday (and this would mean Fed will never get to see doghouse).

Ralph playing young Sinner will definitely be on PC.

Roger said,

" I worked a lot to be here.Playing a 3.30 hour match at a high level against a very good player just shows me I am on the right track".

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Apparently, there is no French player (man or woman) in 3rd round of singles this year.

Roger Federer said,

He isn't 100% certain about playing his next match with the grass season in mind.

"I need to decide if I keep on playing or not,or if this is perfect way (to end)".
"I have to reassess the situation after the match and see in the morning how I wake up and how the knee feel the next morning".
