Try enjoying Djokovic' tennis, for once.

That has nothing to do with it. Even if it's Roger, Rafa, Novak, etc., when matches become so one sided, it's boring.

Tented, if Ralf is kicking Nole's ass in some match?? Remind Denis of this post. ;)

Onto grass season.

Lol, Federer is not Stan, he is still in this.

Nah. Disagree. He's done now. I realize it's only one break but his return is so poor he's not getting that break back imo.

I think it has more to do with Novak being dialed in. If Novak were to give back that break, Fed would pounce. Novak is just looking too clinical right now.

Funny I always wished Roger hated losing more. I don't think he has enough spite but at his age it's understandable.

Just checking in. Bummer. Novak is on a roll - about to win his fifth Masters this year.

Unlike their USO SFs, for example, which were highly competitive, great tennis. I vividly remember at the time posting their 2011 USO SF was the best tennis I'd seen all year. Today, not so much ...

I mean fourth.

He has a good shot at taking back his record for most in a year from being tied with Rafa now.

Probably end 6-2. Doubt Roger holds next game.

Don't lump Novak in with Fed. He has played great including some highlight real forehands.

That's not at all what I'm saying. I'm talking about when they BOTH play great, vs. one playing great, and the other not.

djokovic looks like he might win. I think he is sneaking ahead in the match.

So, Becker and Vajda have found a way to work well together, the results are unmistakeable.

But watch out for Andy. Bjorkman was one of the feistiest fighters of his time, and Andy has been uber aggressive since he's come on board.

Could mean the end of Pong.

Even Ferret and Bellucci put up more of a fight.
