re: US Open Men's Final: Djokovic BEATS Nadal, 6-2, 6-4, 6-7, 6-1

He sleeps in a pressurized chamber that, according to the creator, is twice as effective as blood doping.

Yeah, among other benefits, but supposedly all you have to do is spend 20 minutes in there 3 days a week.

Regardless, Joker's fitness level is much improved over a short time (less than 6 months) so something is going on w/ him.

He certainly ain't doing the Ivan Lendl regimen to improve.

And Murray keeps bringing the drop shots.

Isner with a break out of nowhere. Let's see if he can hold and consolidate the break.

Isner really needs to improve on more aspects of his game. He's Roddick from years past. Throw a massive serve, win your serve, and hope for a tie break.

Yeah, he's improved a lot in the past year though, but his defense is still meh.

This is one thing AM/ND have done really well. They are great at returning the ball and just playing defense until they have a chance.

This is turning into a great match. Isner looked so gased in the beginning. Somehow he seems to be playing better and harder.

He hit 138 on a serve in the 3rd set...

on the flip side, murray seems to be losing his mind. He's got some anger issues.. Could let Isner take another set.

If Isner gets the upset...frick Djokovic I'm pulling American.

WOW Murray most likely DFed on BP, but Isner failed to challenge.

So he has like 1/1000 of a second to decide should I hit this or challenge? that's bs.

the thing is he continued to play the point, and rightfully so because those break points don't come by often and there was no way he was 100% to challenge. But yeah that call was probably bad.
