Rome Masters 2015 semifinal: Wawrinka - Federer

[Murat Baslamisli]

What's with Roger's backhand? I want to see more forehand winners...

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

ooooooooooooooooooooooh feds bh working ok.

 

[Federberg]

Turning out like I expected. Beating Rafa put a lot of pressure on Stan, and that's not helped by having to beat the monster right after. Was a tough ask

 

[crystalfire]

when did fed get a new return game!?

 

[Front242]

Roger's won 18 of the last 19 points now.

 

[Federberg]

It's almost unfair now. Poor Stan has been lulled into looking at this as a baseline battle, now Roger is creeping into the net

lovely flowers around the court.

ROFL! Went to actually grab my dinner this time and returned to see it's 3-3.

That was quick! Are you sure you weren't using the microwave? :snicker

Only for some Uncle Ben's pilau rice to go with my roast chicken and salad

OK, I've figured it out. You got me hungry for rice, so I stepped out to cook some. Came back, Fed's up 5-1.

Note to Fedfans: Cook rice!

 

[crystalfire]

honstly looks like theyre having a practice match lmao

 

[Front242]

2 great serves so far in this game.

Lol! When Roger is in this mood microwave it!

This will help Roger enormously to have finished this in straights. Going into the final after a three-set battle would have been dreadful.

I'm shocked! Why is it the 2nd tier forget how to play tennis after a big upset? uzzled :nono :angel: :cover

 

[Front242]

Pretty straightforward stuff for Roger and good serving performance helped a lot. 73% overall first serve % for the match is a great stat.

Federer floats towards potential rome masters title glory. just djokovic to go lol.

Regardless, Stan allowed a slow, chipped ball to his backhand to turn him into a "qualifier!" :nono

Roger's about the only guy beating Novak these days. Hopefully it'll be a good match from both of them.

Did you all see what Stan wrote on the Camera today after winning the match?

See you tomorrow RF.

From the way he played this evening, I am pretty sure that Roger saw it!

:snicker

Anyone got the stats for this match? I just caught the last 2-3 games.
