US Open 2019, Flushing Meadows, NY USA - Grand Slam (Men)

Well that's the only chance he doesn't win this tournament. I see special ed Fed already getting broken early by muffins. Hope he pulls the plug on the year after this tournament.

His game looks horrendous. I think he is done for this year. This looks like a replay of late 2018.

Sinner is all limbs. And is gutsy.

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

I didn't watch all, but did you see him favoring it, or shaking it out, like in Cincy? I just thought he wasn't pleased with his general level.

Yep, he was shaking it a lot.

Best of 5...too soon to panic.

He was done for the year the second he choked the 2nd match point. He will probably lose this match to this cupcake

Nagal to serve for the first set. I hope Federer loses this match so that he can spare us the agony of watching him play so badly.

He's looking physically as ragged as I've ever seen! The beard doesn't help! Grampa's ready to hit that rocker if we're lucky! :whistle:

The kid takes the set. I don't expect this to last.

 

[DarthFed]

Tuned in to see 3 of the worst mishit forehands on either tour this year. And drops a set to a 5 foot tall pusher

 

[herios]

1 set ago I said Sinner will be pretty good, I rectify now, he will be very good

"Ragged" is what I was thinking. Should have shaved.

Remember when people were talking about Roger having the greatest serve ever.

 

[DarthFed]

This is the decline in serve I was talking about at Wimbledon.

Remember when people were talking about Roger having the greatest serve ever.

When was that? He's a great spot server, but there are better serves.

 

[Moxie]

Spike Lee coaching from the stands. Even he's frustrated.

 

[DarthFed]

When was that? He's a great spot server, but there are better serves.

AP and other Nadal fans on this board have said it numerous times.

 

[DarthFed]

Wow what a pathetic overhead

 

[don_fabio]

Unfortunately Fed is still in Wimbledon. It's not easy to recover from those lost opportunities. Just watched that match yesterday again and couldn't believe how easy that passing shot was at 11:11 second BP on Novak's serve and Fed didn't make it. Novak finished that point with ugliest overhead in the history of tennis.

AP and other Nadal fans on this board have said it numerous times.

I think he's a smart and effective server, and he gets a lot of free points because he's a spot-server, but there are better.

Nagal is shorter than the ball person.
