This might be the worst Federer has ever played.

Lmao, let's not overreact. Federer turns into Federror a lot of times. Berdych playing great at the same time makes it look worse.

 

[agrajag]

Seriously, if Federer has a press conference after this match and announces his retirement, I'm going to lose my shit.

 

[Sax Russel]

Alright fuck this match guys, here's what we should REALLY be excited for:

Exhibition Doubles
John McEnroe (USA) /
Adam Sandler(USA)
vs.
Jim Courier (USA) /
Kevin James(USA)

7pm primetime tomorrow!

That wouldn't steal Roddick's spotlight at all. haha

 

[agrajag]

Anyone watch the game on the USopen.org stream? One of the commentators is such an idiot. The entire match Berdych is absolutely murdering Fed and this clown keeps going "The question is, does Berdych truly believe, does he really think deep inside, does he think he can beat Federer." Berdych breaks again.

 

[LuuKyK]

Wat. Just tuned in. What are you doing Fed? Come on.

Edit: but Berdych is playing godlike today. holy shit.

 

[clemenx]

Now, that one was probably the worst shank ever. LOL.

Haha, he beat Fed at Wimbledon, which is tougher to do.

I've never seen a shank that bad, not even from Shankerer.

 

[rando14]

Now let's see what happens.

 

[PS3GamerKyle]

uh oh, fed breaks berdych... do we have a match?????

 

[Coldnoodle]

WTF BERDYCH :LOL

 

[zero_suit]

uh oh, fed breaks berdych... do we have a match?????

Maybe, maybe not

 

[agrajag]

Now let's see what happens.

Could possibly be a momentum swing. But Berdych seems like a fucking psychopath, he doesn't seem to be mentally affected by anything that's going on.

 

[LuuKyK]

Federer back? Federer back.

 

[TrumanBurbank]

Federer RISES

 

[Vomiaouaf]

I want to punch the USOpen.com commentator so bad. Exaggerating everything doesn't create drama...

 

[zero_suit]

Federer back? Federer back.

Um, let's not get ahead of ourselves.

 

[agrajag]

Federer back? Federer back.

let's not be hasty *fingers crossed*


edit: I've never seen Fed so pumped up at holding his own serve. *sigh*

 

[HeroMK]

Could this be another Federer classic comeback???

 

[PS3GamerKyle]

Maybe, maybe not

if fed wins this set and starts the next set strong, I don't see why this won't go 5 sets.

but you're right, he's been playing like shit tonight and this could just be a little fluke.

 

[agrajag]

I mean, after Murray's comeback earlier today, I'll believe anything. Maybe Berdych is about to implode? But Federer seems to suck every time after they take a break. We'll see.

edit: aaaaaaaand he shanks

 

[LuuKyK]

Berdych is going to choke. Just watch.

 

[agrajag]

Something I've noticed about servebots, or players with servebot tendencies (Fed is somewhat included in this) is that once their serve starts failing, which is almost always inevitable, they're in major trouble.

edit: YES? Maybe? PLEASE!

[zero_suit]

Fuckin' Berdych

 

[HeroMK]

Jesus has risen from the dead!!!

 

[TrumanBurbank]

Damn, Berdych's girlfriend is stunningly beautiful.

 

[Vomiaouaf]

Fuck yes. We have a match, at least.

 

[rando14]

Federer RISES

I refuse to comment until the 5th set (if it occurs).

 

[LuuKyK]

Damn, Berdych's girlfriend is stunningly beautiful.

She really is. My God.

 

[agrajag]

ladies and gentlemen, we've got a tennis match!

 

[Sax Russel]

Federer's lucky 99% of the people in that stadium are cheering for him.

 

[zero_suit]

[PS3GamerKyle]

i don't like murray, but his girlfriend is drop dead gorgeous.


momentum is definitely in Fed's favor now. He's going to win the set. The real question is, can he sustain it through to the 5th set?

 

[agrajag]

it's one thing to dislike a player and enjoy when they're getting beat, but to gloat over someone having a bad day... I'd rather see Murray or Nadal get beat when they're playing well.

 

[shwimpy]

Federer's lucky 99% of the people in that stadium are cheering for him.

More like he's lucky 99% of the ATP are chokers.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

She looks like the puppy from lady and the tramp.

 

[rando14]

I believe her name is Ester Satorova.

 

[agrajag]

Fed needs to unleash these drop shots more often. I bet it would frustrate opponents like hell.

 

[inm8num2]

Jesus I just checked the Fed/Berdych score. WTF? People who are watching, what's the story of the match?

 

[zero_suit]

Jesus I just checked the Fed/Berdych score. WTF? People who are watching, what's the story of the match?

Fed shanking + Berdych god mode

 

[agrajag]

Jesus I just checked the Fed/Berdych score. WTF? People who are watching, what's the story of the match?

The commentator just said that Federer was Clark Kent for the first two sets and now changed into Superman.

 

[rapid32.5]

fuck yeah FedExpress is back!

 

[HeroMK]

It's hard to beat Federer + the crowd. Reminds me of how Djokovic slapped that return winner to shut up the crowd last year and win the match. Very impressive that he did that under the circumstances.

 

[Dizzan]

Fed performs unbelievably well under pressure

Spoiler

unless playing Nadal

 

[PS3GamerKyle]

Fed, you won't win if you keep hitting it three feet past the baseline!

 

[snack]

I believe her name is Ester Satorova.

Hotttttay.

 

[Dizzan]

Berdych was just teasing lol

 

[TrumanBurbank]

I believe her name is Ester Satorova.

Sweet Jesus
