watching roddick/tipsarevic

andy looks slightly lethargic but at the same time composed and playing his game very well

tipsy could hang with him though if he keeps dragging out long rallies and ending them with big fh winners, some errors cost him in the first set

roddick up 6-3, 1-2 atm

Well, Tomas played his tennis but Llodra was simply best in his net and volley actions. Serve and volley, i love such a playing in sampras style. That was really good match for 30 y/o french.


agree'd he played great

love that style actually kinda like my irl playing style

tipsy works hard for a break and then mails it right back

tipsy is playing like he did against federer @ aussie 08 and roddick that same year at wimbledon (although roddick was not in good form at the time)

roddick is kind of imploding although he had a nice fight with the lineswoman

hes also looking a bit lethargic, probably not quite over the mono or just other fatigue..

tipsy up 3-6, 7-5, 6-3

3-6, 7-5, 6-3, 7-6(7-4) - Tipsarevic

his serve let him down for portions as the match wore on but he was able to get big first serves on key points and force roddick into a lot of rallies by keeping a lot of his returns on roddicks serve in

really high quality from both, especially in the 4th set. roddick seemed rejuvenated in the 4th but tipsy was able to dictate a decent majority of those rallies, and his w:ufe ratio was fucking ridiculous (66:30). roddick took the ace total 17-16 but that was really irrelevant since tipsy got a good portion of would-be unreturnables in and the % on roddicks 2nd serve was basically even. total points were 126-116 t

he would have to play monfils next, bellucci/davydenko will probably be in the 4th round, and then fish/djokovic in the quarters. this is all in feds half of the draw, and feds quarter is relatively weak although i would like to see de bakker/soderling in the 3rd round (pending)

She played really bad. Her backhand was really crap in 1st set, too many unforced errors. In 2nd set she started to play with slice and got a lot of gifts from bondarenko, but she fucked it up. She didn't deserve for the 3rd round.

Too bad i couldn't watch roddick since i live in Poland and that match was about 2:00 at night :/


What you think about those matches today :

Lisicki v Zvonareva

Bennetau v Robredo

Nalbandian v Serra

Verdasco v Mannarino

lisicki/zvonareva is the only even slightly interesting matchup there and i don't even like womens tennis much

verdasco will eventually implode and lose (i'm thinking early on) but i'm not thinking it'll be against that guy

fat dave should beat serra easily, and robredo is so annoying because we all know he isn't going to win shit but can trouble certain other players, i think benneteau manages to get him in 4
