Man, Mardy is the real deal now. I hope we get a five setter outta this one, enjoying it very much

Yeah, Fish used to be a joke. His transformation this late into his career is impressive to say the least.
 
Will we ever get Nadal / Federer in the same half of the draw? For once I don't want Fed to mess up a Djokovic / Nadal finals like he did at Roland Garros.

No.

The organizers will do everything short of asking players to throw matches in order to get their dream Fedal finals
 
It never has been other than the French Open where Federer wasted 3484927592408 break points and the both Wimby finals.
I really don't remember anything about their AO final other than Federer serving like ass and his tears afterwards.
 
MIMIC why do you hate Federer so much when he has a clear and legitimate claim as the greatest to have ever played the sport?

I don't "hate" him but his pompous attitude is very off-putting.

And just because he's one of the greatest tennis player to ever have played the game (and he's definitely top 2) doesn't mean I have to be in love with him. He's just not my favorite player.

I was probably over-doing it slightly. I dont think that Fed's attitude is any less off putting than say Novak's.

Fed isnt my favourite player either, it's Monflis for me. I just thought you seemed to take a bit too much enjoyment after a Fed loss.

Oh, make no mistake about it....I love watching Federer lose ^_^

A bit like me watching Andy Roddick play. He's the only player I actively dislike on tour.

He is such an asshole.
 
fed is a piece of crap

got lucky that he was the only player around worth a shit for a few years so he got to pad his slams

id take novaks cockiness over feds arrogance any day tbh

and holy shit that last point was fantastic

I love watching him lose, too. Andy is an asshole AND I hate his game.

Also, Tsonga and Fish in a decider. Playing some incredible tennis right now.

Tsonga with some break points
 
I fucking hate Fish's grey shorts. Can't he afford something better? He looks like some dude off the street while playing.
 
Clegg said:
If that was Fish then he is an asshole just like Roddick. The Umpires deserve the players respect. Hope he gets shit for this.

he said it to tsonga not to the umpire.

edit: wait, or did he?

Fair enough, I was sure he said it to the Umpire though. I was only half watching so I only caught the end of what he said.
 
apparently he did say it to the umpire. i was only half watching myself.

i don't know, whatever doesn't matter asshole move anyway.

What was the scoreline when this happened?
I got the game on in the background, but haven't been paying too much attention.

I think it was right after Tsonga broke. Either 2-0* or 1*-0

Tsonga breaks again. 4*-1
 
Clegg said:
I still dont know how Fed lost their match at Wimbledon.

He was 2 sets up and everything.
because hes old and weak

whereas tsonga is a mighty mighty man, young and in his prime
 
All week the espn has been saying that the amount of tournies Fish played all summer were going to push him over the hump in the majors and now they are saying he played too much this season and that's why he is losing. :lol

Interestingly enough, Federer only broke Tsonga's serve once the whole match. It just caught up to him seemingly.
