US open 2011

[DAF86]

I had a revelation today: Murray will win the US. I created this thread only to say that.

[sonic21]

easy draw for Murray and Nadal.

[joshdaboss]

Federer or Djokovic will win.

nice try but the Djoker rules the world right now

[DAF86]

He didn't rule much the last time he faced Murray.

[Spurologist]

I'd love to see Murray finally win though....don't get me wrong. I just don't see it happening. Murray deserves a major

[DAF86]

I don't care about him, I just think it's his time.

[DAF86]

Can the Djoker go for the triple 6-0?

[joshdaboss]

He didn't rule much the last time he faced Murray.

lol Playing with an injury that forced him to retire from a final? Murray is not on the level of Djokovic, let's get that out of the way.

[urunobili]

Djocobitch or DelPotro TBH

Every time he loses he has an injury.

:lmao people just taking photos of him instead of helping him.

[Spurologist]

I can't wait for Murray vs. Young.....that has potential to be the best game of the tournament so far

[joshdaboss]

ABY0BR8d_z0

I can('t) believe it.

[Pistons < Spurs]

This Wozniaki -- Kuznetsova match is pretty entertaining. Woz is showing a lot of fight that I don't often see from her.

[Pistons < Spurs]

It's gonna be near midnight for the start of the Federer match.

[GoodOdor]

Djoko hasn't looked convincing in his latest match, but it's hard to bet against him.

Murray should take out nadal in the semis.

I also have a feeling it might be murray's time, but then again, he has shit the bed quite a few times...

He certainly has an incredibly easy draw, but he'll find a way to lose.

[sonic21]

tsonga against federer again.

[lefty]

Go Djoker go :D

[lefty]

Nadal shitting on Roddick on his homecourt

Roddick :lmao

Federer shitted on Tsonga :lmao

[Pistons < Spurs]

Alright!!! Time for this Federer - Djokovic match!

I'm pulling for Novak, but Roger has been looking really good. Hopefully this is one of those 'must watch' matches.

[dbreiden83080]

Set 1 Federer

Gonna be a hell of a match

[ploto]

Despite not serving as well as he had the first set, Roger pulls out the tiebreaker!

I can not stand the way Novak bounces the ball 15 or 16 times.

[Spurologist]

The Djoker has yet to enter this match

[ploto]

Federer up 2 sets to 0.

[dbreiden83080]

Fed up 2 sets

[dbreiden83080]

Nadal shitting on Roddick on his homecourt

Roddick :lmao


Roddick is like the 20th best American player ever.. :lol

[Pistons < Spurs]

Djokovic is playing much better now.

[dbreiden83080]

Djokovic is playing much better now.

unfortunately..

[Spurologist]

WTF happened to Fed? He looks dead out there

[Pistons < Spurs]

YES!!

5th set. C'mon Novak!

Federer seemed to step it up over the last 2 games. Should be an exciting 5th.

[leemajors]

great match so far

[Pistons < Spurs]

on the edge of my seat for every point

[ace3g]

3 all 5th set!!!

[ace3g]

Fed gets the break!!!

[Pistons < Spurs]

Djokovic self destructing.

And screw this pro Roger crowd!

[Spurologist]

:lmao

Fed CHOKE

Some fans were actually chanting NOLE!

[Pistons < Spurs]

5 all!

[Pistons < Spurs]

Novak!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Serving for the match!

[Pistons < Spurs]

Game.

Set.

Match.

[Pistons < Spurs]

There's seriously nothing better in tennis than a Federer-Djokovic match.

[Nathan89]

Fed fucking choked.:bang

[Spurologist]

Roger Federer is gonna need extreme psychiatric care

[dbreiden83080]

Crushing loss for Fed

That might have been his last chance at the Open..

[Nathan89]

TBH, over the last few years he has choked many times on the big stage against Nadal, Djokovic and Tsonga.

[Nathan89]

Crushing loss for Fed

That might have been his last chance at the Open..

I don't think so. He still capable of competing he just can't handle the A game of Nadal or Djokovic.

[ace3g]

Fed has been through this before, prior to winning the French Open for the 1st time and prior to getting the record for Grand Slams; IMO I think he has accomplished what he wanted for a career and shows on some of those shots especially when he just tries to slice a return back instead of a full backhand.

Anything else now is just a bonus for him... Sure it still sucks to lose after having 2 match pts, but have those record Grand Slams helps...

[Nathan89]

I just don't want Nadal to win.

That's how he returns a fast serve to the backhand side. It's not easy to swing and control a full one handed backhand on returning.

Nadal already has 10 majors he needs to win some more or he will probably get caught. He's lucky Djokovic is stepping into the mix and is taking down majors now.

[Spurologist]

I don't think so. He still capable of competing he just can't handle the A game of Nadal or Djokovic.

:lol

I'm less of a fan of Fed than the Djoker or Nadal but he had 2 match points for a finals appearance. He simply joked it

[Nathan89]

I think Murray is going to win this match unless him holding his thigh was a indicator of physical problems to come. Murray is dictating these points right now.

[Muser]

He did the same at Wimbledon, just waiting for the choke.

[Pistons < Spurs]

Rematch!

Novak vs Rafa

[Amuseddaysleeper]

I hope Djoko murders Nadal, he is unreal this year.

That comeback was epic!!

[lefty]

Go Joker go!!!!

[Pistons < Spurs]

Serena is DESTROYING Wozniaki

[resistanze]

Serena pulling a Fed?

[resistanze]

Nah she was just messing around.

[quentin_compson]

That loss is going to haunt Roger for a while. It's really a pity, because he was brilliant in the first two sets and came back nicely after getting dominated in the fourth. Djokovic's return on Federer's first match point was great, but a little crazy as well.
Overall, it was a great tennis match - most of the time, anyway.

[DAF86]

That's it. I'm not betting on Murray winning shit again 'till he proves that he can.

[DAF86]

WTF happened to Fed? He looks dead out there

Years happened to Federer.

[lefty]

Serena is DESTROYING Wozniaki

And then Serena got DESTROYED by whatshername

:lmao


Congrats to Whatshername

[joshdaboss]

Federer should have won this tournament. 2 match points on his serve. Both points were garbage. One he just hit a prayer that caught the line, the other he basically framed on a body serve. I can't remember seeing Federer this openly criticize someone for it after a match, either.

Is it always "coulda, shoulda" with you? :lol

[Pistons < Spurs]

Game Time!!!

Go Novak!!!!

[Pistons < Spurs]

making it look too easy!

[Pistons < Spurs]

The 3rd game of the second set was great.

[Nathan89]

WTF, why is it not showing the US Open on my channel? It's showing jeopardy.

[Pistons < Spurs]

Djokovic is so damn good.

Rafa is just lost. Can't do anything against the complete arsenal that Novak brings to the court. I half expect to see Nadal stomp off the court in tears.

[Pistons < Spurs]

and as I say that, Nadal strings 2 good games together to bring it back to 4-4

[Slomo]

If you're not watching this final you're missing out on some great tennis. I honestly couldn't care less who wins and yet I'm fascinated by this match.

[Pistons < Spurs]

Rafa's definitely stepped up his game these last few points and now Djoker is starting to miss shots he was hitting earlier.

Been a great match. 2 or 3 individual points in this match were honestly some of the best I've ever seen. As much as I want Novak to win, I'd love to see this extended to 4 or 5 sets.

[Spurologist]

Holy fuck...what a point....what a match

[lefty]

Go Jokeeeeeeeeeeer

Rape that fag

[Pistons < Spurs]

wow! another amazing point. Players digging in hard.

yeah she's pretty damn cute

[Pistons < Spurs]

this could be going to a 4th

[resistanze]

Novak looking a little gassed.

[resistanze]

Novak goofed that potential winner.

[lefty]

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaarrrrrres !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





Wattagaaaaaame

Wake up!



Aaaaaaaaaargh

[Spurologist]

This is legendary tennis

[lefty]

This is legendary tennis

I've seen better

[ace3g]

trainer checking Djoker back not a good sign..

[Pistons < Spurs]

mid back muscle strain for Djokovic.


I'm gonna be pissed if he loses this to injury.

[Nathan89]

Finally they put tennis on. I don't know why they weren't showing it earlier.

[resistanze]

He's looks done. Sad.

[Pistons < Spurs]

Djokovic is really struggling with his back.

[Spurologist]

That's been a knock on him in the past....that he can't outlast players. This is his chance to silence everyone...including the pro Nadal crowd there

[Nathan89]

I think two majors wins, a major finals, and semifinals in the span of one year already silenced Djokovic doubters.

[Pistons < Spurs]

Asthma and conditioning issues of years past are not at all related to coming up with an injury mid match. He's either gonna be able to play through it ... or lose. Any critics questioning anything about his game or ability to compete are crazy.

[Spurologist]

I'm talking about outlasting players...not winning majors. I'm not some johnny come lately tennis fan.

[Nathan89]

The Break

:cheer

[Pistons < Spurs]

2-0!!!!

The rub down seemed to have been good for him.

[Nathan89]

I'm talking about outlasting players...not winning majors. I'm not some johnny come lately tennis fan.

Yes but his success shows that doesn't matter.

[Pistons < Spurs]

3-0!!

[Nathan89]

Nadal use to look unstoppable on the court but Djokovic has his number.

I put it under the broad category of outlasting players not simply conditioning. When you have proper conditioning, it helps prevent injuries. Djokovic realized this and changed his workouts and got on a gluten diet too. Regardless of his routine, I realize that injuries happen so fair point. I'm actually a Djoker fan tbh....just playing devil's advocate for the haters.

[ace3g]

Djoker gets the break at love

[Nathan89]

Don't pull a fed.

[Pistons < Spurs]

yes!!!!!!


2011 Australian! Wimbledon! US Open! Champion!

[Nathan89]

It's over. Congrats to Djokovic for 3 majors in a year. Fucking great.

I hear ya. I knew where you were coming from

[Nathan89]

He must be making a ton of money this year. Also props to him and people always matching and not giving a fuck about what others think.

I love when the Djoker gets this possessed

I'll never understand that point of view. He's smart, articulate and funny as hell. He's just an enjoyable personality. A kid having a good time entertaining us on and off the court. I honestly don't understand any of the negative talk about him.

[DAF86]

Djokovic's a prima donna that calls for the traier way to much for my liking. I also doesn't like the way he behaves on the court when the match is tough (specially against weaker opponents) or when he feels like he's not the crowd favourite.
