well Fed did take the 3rd (no tv/stream, can only follow live scores sadly)
― willem, Wednesday, 6 July 2016 13:58 (eight years ago) link
he saved 3 break points in an earlier game too

Fed's BH was actually beginning to click when I left the pub.
In other news, Querrey actually has a break point. And now a break!

cilic really hates break points doesn't he
― imago, Wednesday, 6 July 2016 14:10 (eight years ago) link

Hot damn, that was tense. All the way we go.

Raonic through in four. Bleh. But it was Bleh either way.

no way I'm missing another 30 minutes of Goran Ivanisevic looking like he wants to die

lol federer being a dick to the lino
― imago, Wednesday, 6 July 2016 15:04 (eight years ago) link
end of 4th set was choketastic
― the hallouminati (lex pretend), Wednesday, 6 July 2016 15:06 (eight years ago) link
Yeah, Goran is in knots, isn't he? Compare and contrast with someone like Lendl.
I may dip in again on my phone in about 15min but I didn't get a thing done during that t/b. Sometimes I wish grass-court tennis was somehow an evening/night-time activity. Work days are torture during the second week.
― Michael Jones, Wednesday, 6 July 2016 15:12 (eight years ago) link
always think that if they must have a day off it should be the second mon or tue, not sun

can the crowd be banned from saying anything

LOL that is the worst challenge I have ever seen
― imago, Wednesday, 6 July 2016 15:25 (eight years ago) link
can someone who watches more tennis than me confirm likewise
― imago, Wednesday, 6 July 2016 15:26 (eight years ago) link
lol remember when cilic blew three break points in the middle of the third set
― mookieproof, Wednesday, 6 July 2016 15:28 (eight years ago) link
Desperation.
Didn't think Old Rog would pull that out. Slam #18 on Sunday or it'll never happen.
― Michael Jones, Wednesday, 6 July 2016 15:29 (eight years ago) link
Yeah coming back from two sets down was something I didn't think he was still capable of. Was mildly rooting for Marin but I suppose I'd rather have Fed playing Raonic.
― Roz, Wednesday, 6 July 2016 15:42 (eight years ago) link
Funny how the first two sets appeared kind of close but from middle of set 1 thorugh middle of set 3 it didn't "feel" close, to watch it looked like Cilic was winning easily. Based on the sights, the comeback was unexpected but the score was never a blow-out. I cashed out on Cilic midway through set 3, turning my fiver into $25, five of which I'm going to waste on Tsonga! Hah!
Worst sound in the world? Todd Woodbridge trying to pronounce "Pouille" btw. (Also he kept saying Federer was geeing himself up in Swedish which was quite funny)
― oh, boy, .GIF! That's where I'm a Viking! (edwardo), Wednesday, 6 July 2016 15:47 (eight years ago) link
Cilic did seem to be winning easily but Federer was really, really bad in the first two sets, which covered up Cilic's wobbles. And I've seen too many collapses from Cilic to ever rule another one out at any stage, that USO SF being very much the anomaly in his career. (I put money on Federer down a set and a break.)
Federer had BETTER rid us of Raonic.
