This is absolutely mad.

 

[Nando]

This can not be happening.

Quite a championship so far with all these shocks.

I love Fed but if it makes Murray's life easier if he loses, I hope he loses.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I love Fed but if it makes Murray's life easier if he loses, I hope he loses.

I sort of agree but at the same time I don't want him winning the title and it being tainted in the eyes of some because "he didn't beat anyone any good".

 

[Nando]

Give me Federer v Murray any day over Andy getting a supposedly easy ride. I'd back Andy to win regardless, but we'd see another stormer.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Whatever happens on his side of the draw, you would imagine that Murray is going to have to deal with Djokovic in the final. If he does that, then it won't be tainted by an easy life in my eyes. Beating the best player in the world has kudos.

 

[Kenny]

Broken in the 4th set!!

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I don't believe what I am seeing here...

 

[darlowolf64]

Federer broken in the 3rd game of the fourth set!

 

[Nando]

Good Lord. Nadal v Rosol last year, Fed this year....

What a strange day.

Which he did in the US final.

I'm sure Murray won't care how he wins it if he manages to go all the way TBH. I totally agree with Nando but above anything else, I really want to see Murray win Wimbledon.

Fed badly needs to find some form here or he's offski.

 

[Kenny]

Probably going to break back here though....

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Here comes the Fed express. Break points.

 

[Nando]

Come on!

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

That point was completely ridiculous!

 

[Kenny]

Probably going to break back here though....

maybe not then.....3-1 it is then

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

brilliant hold by stakhovski. That could be the key moment.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Did really well to save that game.

 

[Nando]

Absolutely majestic stuff there to get that back. Sloppy forehand error from Fed, but fair play to him.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Solid hold for Fed. What is noticeable is that this bloke (if he misses) is missing his first serve by a lot more suddenly. Tightening up maybe?
