Can't let this guy embarrass you 3 straight times in front of your home crowd...

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

I wonder if Roger can get over losing this set in his head.

 

[DarthFed]

Pathetic set from Fed

 

[britbox]

Roger will be really frustrated by that first set... it was there for him.

Does he get more irritable or take the bull by the horns? He's seeing the ball well...

 

[Carol]

And of course he's a much worse player than Federer but I'm guessing you won't admit that

Not too much worse but with more injuries

 

[britbox]

Pathetic set from Fed

It was pathetic that he lost it in that fashion, but he played some good stuff. Seen a lot worse.

 

[DarthFed]

He's way worse. DP hasn't been great since 09, injuries or not

 

[DarthFed]

It was pathetic that he lost it in that fashion, but he played some good stuff. Seen a lot worse.

Broke himself twice and lost 6 straight points in the TB. Serving 40%, blew a lot of BP's. Can't say he's playing well with that BB

One day you may finally give Delpotro the respect he deserves for putting so much pressure on Roger

He did play some good stuff... blew the set though, and only himself to blame.

 

[DarthFed]

Feds drop shots are terrible today, they are costing him this match.

Yeah, a bit of credit to Delpo wouldn't go amiss. He doesn't get disheartened, keeps Federer honest, plays with a lot of power and hits a deep ball... and he's good under pressure.

 

[DarthFed]

He deserved none for that set. He didn't put Roger under pressure at all really.

Nah..Delpotro was foolish by hitting short approach shots to Roger's fh..A USTA 3.5 rated player can make that shot all day.n

 

[the AntiPusher]

He deserved none for that set. He didn't put Roger under pressure at all really.

Are you kidding me,,did you see the way Roger won the first service break to try to close the first set. Come on Darth ..lets be fair..give the guy some credit..Roger came up with the goods but just folded like a cheap suit in the tbr

 

[DarthFed]

Well we see it differently. Roger didn't make DP earn those breaks of serve. And the TB was batting practice on some of those approaches Roger hit.

 

[britbox]

Roger definitely getting irritable....

 

[DarthFed]

Unreal. This is like the two USO losses

 

[DarthFed]

Not surprising he's getting pissed. This match should almost be over in his favor by now.

 

[DarthFed]

He will be broken easily after that choke
