Wimbledon 2019

[Cob]

Everything we hoped it would be so far.

They have a shot clock where players have 25 seconds to serve within or get a penalty. I timed Nadal to see if he's close to that when going through his face and ears touching ritual. Surprisingly only about 11 seconds.

Federer's already looking a bit slower than he did in the first set.

I thought he seemed to have sped up the time in between points.

 

[an0nym0us]

Disappointing service game from Federer just there. Easy break for Nadal.

 

[marc2003]

Roger looking a little bit less serene these last few games...

 

[marc2003]

What was that? Anyway, set gone.

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Shocking set for Federer, looks like he's lost his concentration.

 

[an0nym0us]

Terrible 2nd set.

 

[Cob]

Much better now

 

[Cob]

Brilliant hold.

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

That's more like the tennis we were expecting, very little between them in that set.

 

[Merlin5]

Just needs Rafa to take set 4 now and then we get a fifth and final set. But another tiebreak world be fun.

 

[marc2003]

I might cry if Rafa doesn't win this set and take us into a fifth.

 

[an0nym0us]

Looks like the sunshine has finally started to move past the court, so no longer getting the massive contrast.

 

[an0nym0us]

Impressive hold of serve by Nadal.

 

[Cob]

Roger's on fire!

 

[Merlin5]

Yeah. This is surprising me now, I was so confident Rafa would beat him.

 

[doodah]

Rather glad I was wrong about Nadal but it ain't over quite yet....

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Yeah. This is surprising me now, I was so confident Rafa would beat him.

Me too, I expected Nadal to blitz him in 3.
