US Open Final: Novak Djokovic v Stan Wawrinka

[BillayRambo]

Sorry Moxie

 

[Moxie]

No worries. It's just opinions. I'm enjoying it.

 

[britbox]

I'd agree with Billay from what I've seen... but there is time yet. Most of the all time classics usually have a set or two of great tennis at the right time.

 

[BillayRambo]

It's an ok match whatever the outcome but it's never going to be memorable

 

[britbox]

But the increasing tension is good.

 

[BillayRambo]

Thx Brit and I agree

 

[EdbergsGhost]

Well, if Novak wins, he will have worked for it.

 

[Moxie]

Opinion question: Does a Slam match have to go 5 to be all-time classic?

 

[britbox]

Can you think of one that wasn't?

 

[Moxie]

My opinion is it has to be 5, and no.

 

[EdbergsGhost]

Nadal beating Federer at the French in 2008 was a classic.

 

[Moxie]

Even Nadal fans are generally too squeamish to mention that one, EG

 

[britbox]

It depends if a perfectly executed beatdown is called a classic

 

[EdbergsGhost]

2008 French

 

[britbox]

Classic performance maybe, but not really a classic match.

 

[Moxie]

Nice, BB.

 

[EdbergsGhost]

You feddie you.

 

[Billie]

set point for Stan

 

[britbox]

I didn't feel Fed/Roddick in 09 was a classic match. It probably gets classed as one, but I never had that feeling watching it.

 

[EdbergsGhost]

NO Fed/Roddick match is a classic.
