Yup, brilliant.

Phew, that was tough going.

Sure does detract from women’s final day. Stunning stuff.

Can you imagine if this gets to the Anderson Isner score line of over 20 games each. Women's final wouldn't happen till this evening.

marc2003 · 14 Jul 2018 at 15:31

3 match points. :eek:

Merlin5 · 14 Jul 2018 at 15:32

Uh oh, matchpoint for Djok...

Pigeon_Killer · 14 Jul 2018 at 15:32

Nooooooooooooooooo!

Amazing match but immediately lost any interest I would've had in the final

CaptainRAVE · 14 Jul 2018 at 15:33

Darn. Amazing match. Can’t stand novak. Arrogant beyond belief.

marc2003 · 14 Jul 2018 at 15:33

A rather tame concession from Nadal.

Merlin5 · 14 Jul 2018 at 15:34

Bah, so wanted Rafa in the final.

**** the ****ing football. I switched over from DelPo/Nadal to watch that shower of **** the other day.

You might want to find a way to catch up on what you missed. It was epic stuff!

Great match and well deserved by Nole. He's a wizard with a racquet when he's on.

Same. Still, there is the football final, which will get my undivided attention now.

Marsman · 14 Jul 2018 at 16:35

Hopefully Kerber can take it to Williams. Good start so far .

marc2003 · 14 Jul 2018 at 16:48

First set Kerber.

Pigeon_Killer · 14 Jul 2018 at 16:48

Williams looks a bit off it at the minute, if she finds her rhythm I don't think Kerber can live with her.

Merlin5 · 14 Jul 2018 at 16:52

Serena lost the first set in her quarter final match to Giorgi then destroyed her by taking the final two sets.

That was a surprising stat on the BBC website. No male player born in the 90's has won a grand slam! Considering that means all players up to 28 years old in what is considered a young mans game, it's quite surprising!

Williams' temper is counterproductive, she makes easy mistakes.

If any player needs a humiliating defeat as a life experience, it's Williams.

And only Thiem at the French and Raonic at Wimbledon have even made a final. I don't think there's anyone up and coming that comes close to the big three, or even Murray for that matter. Makes you wonder how many titles they would have if they played in an era without the others.

She won't lose 6-0, 6-0 now and she's been in most points so this won't be an humiliating loss if she loses.

Merlin5 · 14 Jul 2018 at 17:11

This is great, Serena is losing

Cob · 14 Jul 2018 at 17:12

Jeez Serena's well off the pace today.
