How often do you see two bagel TBs in a row within an hour of each other?

Well, we may see two more of those very soon. :devil

Isner had more winners in the first set than Fed. He was also better by just 1 in the differential.
But, nothing to show for it.

That's what happens to players who are "just servers!" I've seen many a match; esp. in the old days where there were no breaks of serve, but someone had to lose! :nono :angel: :dodgy:

Well, most of my favorites are gone. Maybe Berdych can shock the tennis world this year and finally goes grabs a slam to not have to think about what if for the rest of his life.

fedster 2nd serve ace.

What happened to the SABR on returning? lol! I think Isner's going well at "the body" to stop any of that nonsense! :nono :p

I guess you missed it - but Fed said a day or so ago he wouldn't be using the SABR in this match because John's 2nd serve is too good - kicks up too much -- so I guess he knew at least as much as you about the use of it

Dream on! :lolz: :snicker :laydownlaughing :angel: :dodgy: :p :ras: :cover - He's got about as much chance as the rest of the baseline stiffs like Ferrer; even Gasquet! :rolleyes:

Isner holds a hard fought game to go up 2-1 (on serve) in second set.

Isner is giving Fed about as good as possibly can be expected.
