Haha. Did u watch Berd****/Djoka last night? I went to bed after first set...heard Djoker looked very meh tho...cant believe Berdych won 2nd then got rolled

Sucks its Ferrer vs Djoka...such an easy W for him even if hes not 100%....Fed/Murray will b the real finals IMO

I watched the entire Berd/Djo match.  I wouldn't say Djo looked meh, no.  

Berd just woke-up in the 2nd.  Djo played a loose 1st game in the 2nd set and was broken immediately.  Berd also served reasonably well in that 2nd. It got a little tight for Berd at the end of the 2nd, but he eventually served it out.  

In the 3rd, Djo took it up another gear and got 2 (I think it was) early breaks.  Berd's level also started to drop at that point and it was pretty much game-over. 

So, no, I think Djo will still step it up in the semis and if he reaches the finals. All these top-top-tier players are able to take it to another level in big matches.

Thx for the reply. Guess anything could happen tmrw night but I'm already looking forward to Djoka vs (hopefully) Murray sunday morning


PS - Chardy looks great. Aside from that 1st tense game he has been ON

 

[Sinner]

Well, that was an... interesting 1st set.  Double-break, you'd think Andy would plow through.  Credit to Chardy, constructing some good points. It ended up being a pretty tight 1st.

Very proud of Sloane, hopefully she can build off this win.

It wouldn't bother me if she never wins another match .

Why the negativity towards Sloane?

 

[eiddyfouw]

I wonder why so much hatred and salt for Serena and Sloane. hmmmmm

 

[Sinner]

^ More on that later...

But Jo takes the 2nd! 

  Game on!

 

[ohphishul]

Man Fed is playing sloppy smh... He could of really took control of the match right now.

 

[Sinner]

Both guys are sloppy... moments of great shots followed by head-scratching ones. 

All came down to a few points here and there in both TB's in which Fed took them, while Jo was atrocious. 

I mean, if you're gonna run into the doubles-alley to hit an inside-out forehand, don't hit it back to your opponent! 

EDIT ~ JO~WILLY!

EDIT 2 ~ Welp... early break.  This is over.

EDIT 3 ~ Good fight by Jo... it's 1, 2, 3 & 4 for the semis...

 

[ohphishul]

^^^^ lol yup it was sloppy on both parts. I just thought fed would tighten his game up a little better in the crucial moments, but I'm glad to see him get through it though... Murphy will be super fresh for the semi, so hopefully roger sharpens his game up.

Offnote about the match, but Nike always has dude fresh

His shorts probably have some degree of customization, but the GR ones are these.
