Isner and Mahut are matched up again, something tells me they won't repeat their match from last year

Was gonna say, how about an over/under on games for that one

 

[Bucknut24]

Roddick upset, imagine that

when does an upset quit being an upset when the upsetee gets upset every tournament

 

[Flocka]

Good win for Lopez after choking at Queens.

mini ali (tsonga) giving rfed all fits, up a break (4-2) in the 5th after losing the first two sets....anybody know what's Federer's record after winning the first two sets?

 

[Bucknut24]

Tsonga serving for the match now at 5-4 in the 5th

just heard it, Rfed is 178-0 after winning first two sets

triple match point

 

[Bucknut24]

wow, what a comeback from Tsonga, Federer now 178-1 after winning first two sets

I didn't see the final stats, but one point (I think it was after the 3rd set) Federer had 51 winners to 8 unforced errors, and his serve percentages (1st serves in, and % of first and second serve points won - were all in the mid to high 70s).

Full credit to Tsonga for winning the match, because Fed was playing very well.

 

[Flocka]

Tsonga would have beat anyone in the draw today. Fed had ONE break point in 5 sets. Amazing.

 

[Bucknut24]

yea, Tsonga was just serving out of his mind

Both Murray and Nadal have won their first two sets.
What are the odds of Murray or Nadal losing as well?

Also these match stats for Tsonga and Rfed are impressive.

Nadal and Djoker advance to the finals.
The Tsonga magic--a rally from 2 sets down ran out of steam this time.
Nadal dropped the first set to Murray but breezed in 2,3, and 4.
Looks like the resident BP wisdom has placed strong v-cash on djoker.
Nadal's reported foot injury however has not yet hampered his court coverage, shotmaking, or quickness.
Sunday will be fun to watch.
Finally, whoever prevails at Wimbledon, the Djoker will still pass Rafa next week for #1 ranking on the ATP tour.

Fuck Murray for even playing with my emotions like that. What a chump. Terrible effort after missing the forehand.
