Well this sport is pretty fun to watch. I'll make an effort Sunday.

That was a thing of beauty, and a heck of a three set match. C'mob Fed, give us one more. If RF is serving like that, he will win - might not be as "easy" as it was today, but I think he can keep Nole frustrated and get it done.

Sunday should be epic. Fed was on his A game. If he plays like that on Sunday, he wins in four and maybe three.

Surely no way Federer brings that same performance again on Sunday but who knows as he seems to defy his age at Wimbeldon lately. One good outcome is that Murray will not be hoisting the trophy.

no love for the guy huh?

Fed 100% first serve points won in second set. And Murray is a great returner.

If Fed can serve Sunday like he did today.. The Joker is in serious trouble............. I would love to see FED take another title, But I am also hoping for a 5 set marathon between two of the best to ever take the court...........

quote:It never fails. Posters on this board claim the athletes of today are bigger, faster, stronger, and technically, more proficient than athletes of the past in football, basketball, baseball, track and field. But somehow the same doesn't apply to women's tennis despite the improvements in equipment, training techniques and numbers of players. Sometimes there are just truly gifted athletes who are just better than their competition.
At this point I'm not sure if what Serena is doing says more about how ridiculously dominant she is or more about her competition. Not trying to diminish what she's doing because there is basically a slim chance at this point she doesn't win all 4 this year but holy shite is the field weak.
Are today's sprinters weak? Usain Bolt dominates them to a greater degree than Serena Williams dominates other women tennis players.

Why the Hate for Murray??? A few years ago he WAS a complaining little bitch.. But he has improved greatly from those days........

She can't control the rest of the players she is matched up against... She IS Dominant...Plain and simple...
Not as Dominant as Graf but still........ You give me Graf in her prime with the same equipment that Serena uses and it would not even be close.. Graf would destroy her...

I don't think any woman of any era with any legal equipment would destroy Serena...Now Stefi v Serena both in their prime would be one helluva match to watch, if you ask me. Interestingly, they did play twice, both three setters, and both very evenly contested. Serena pre-prime, and Steffi post-prime. Neither a major, but Serena's win was a Final at Indian Wells.

Interesting postmortem on the Fed match. Murray isn't even mad. Thinks he played well. Most of the old greats who are working for various media outlets like Borg, Cash, Wilander, and Courier are saying it's the best Fed has played in 5 or 10 years. I don't think he can maintain it tomorrow, but he worked over the second best returner in the game. So, who knows? This is totally ridiculous:
Not watching, but I am rooting for Mug today. Yeah, I'm a hater.

Mug off to a good start so far. Just needs to hold serve
Posted on 7/11/15 at 9:17 am to quail man
if GOAT is a verb, the Serena is just GOATing all over the place right now

I'm bored of watching this vaginated man beat actual women. I wish she would retire just for parity's sake.
