World Tour Finals: Day 5, Thursday Nov. 13, Order of Play

[Denis]

This is quite entertaining.

 

[Federberg]

If anything starting to try to gee Murray up. They paid good money to see this

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

murrays 2nd serve..slower than a static goose feather.

 

[DarthFed]

Poor Iona ... she must be horrified.

I bet she loves Roger that much more right now :snigger

 

[Federberg]

This is quite entertaining.

The only thing keeping my interest is the hope that Roger can double bagel him

 

[tented]

How is the crowd today?

I think they're having a hard time getting into it, because it's so radically one sided. To her credit, Kim Sears has been applauding Roger's winners.

 

[Federberg]

This must be sickening for Murray now. He can't even be thinking about winning the thing now. All about trying to get a game!

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

The thing is, at this point, if Roger's starts taking it easy, THAT would be disrespectful...so he has to go as best as he can and finish it off.

 

[tented]

Jeez ... I figured Roger would win, but I never would have predicted he'd be up 6-0, 3-0 :nono

 

[kskate2]

Is this the last year for the O2?

 

[Federberg]

Jeez ... I figured Roger would win, but I never would have predicted he'd be up 6-0, 3-0 :nono

It just shows how far Murray is from where he used to be :nono

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

Poor Iona ... she must be horrified.

I bet she loves Roger that much more right now :snigger

but she got a free doughnut with her ticket. :devil

 

[TennisFanatic7]

Close match this...

Andy started this year with a double bagel win in Doha. I hope he doesn't end it with a double bagel loss.

Glad to see the back of 2014 for him.

But from the crowd's perspective, is this (so far) the worst year end championships ever?

 

[Federberg]

Is this the last year for the O2?

Think it's definitely being played there next year to. But the contract is being discussed. Going to be tough for the ATP to move it. Nowhere else in the world is going to get these sorts of crowds

 

[Bounce It !!]

So Federer is through.

If he tanks his match, he not only screws Kei (Andy goes through first), he gets to play Djokovic in all likelyhood. Will Federer do that just to ensure he has the odd chance to get Novak in the semis to play for YE1 (when Novak loses to Berdy, lol)?

Not a chance... :nono

Roger is first and foremost a winner. He loves winning. And if he can tune Murray he'll do it because of their rivalry. It's only us fanboys who think of number 1. Roger has been number 1 for longer than anyone else in history. It's a nice to have at this point. This isn't Andy Murray trying to scale the summit. He already has a chalet there..

Unfortunately that chalet has been abandoned, and in need of serious repair. Rumor has it that it will be set for foreclosure auction sometime in 2015 :lolz: It seems Kei is interested in attending the auction! :clap

 

[Denis]

I'm almost starting to feel sorry for Murray. Almost.

 

[the AntiPusher]

Poor Iona ... she must be horrified.

Poor crowd who paid big dollars for this hogwash

 

[atttomole]

Is Murray having a physical issue, or he is just giving up?

 

[Federberg]

Oh dear... thought he would get it done there.

 

[Federberg]

Is Murray having a physical issue, or he is just giving up?

No and no. He's just stinking up the joint. I'm ashamed to say I want to see him get a game
