    Jesus! That didn't take long. Match is barely on twenty minutes. Haven't seen any of it but JW would want to wake up pretty sharpish.

    Federer-del Potro is shaping up to be a good match!

    Delpo is 4-3 up in first set; he broke Federer's serve but was immediately broken back.

    Hard to believe JMDP is only 23 years old. He's been around forever!

    Come on Tsonga.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,630 ✭✭✭steelcityblues


    Tsonga two sets to one up against Djokovic. Djokovic not comfortable on his first serve, at all.

    You've got to love Tsonga. Pure showman. His celebration in winning the third set was class and the point that won it for him was trademark Tsonga as well. Crowd going bananas. Can Tsonga get the job done in the fourth or are heading for a fifth? Still ridiculously tough to call this match. Very even.

    fantastic bottle by Tsonga to save those break points.


  • Registered Users Posts: 54,596 ✭✭✭✭walshb


    Wow! Novak under the cosh!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,428 ✭✭✭MrKingsley

    It would be such a headline moment, if the Frenchman can do it!

    tie break! Novak is fired up!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,630 ✭✭✭steelcityblues


    We have got a 5th set!


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,182 ✭✭✭✭Pighead


    Djokovic is an absolute freak. He will to win is immense. Cool as a cucumber facing match points and produces some of his best tennis of the match.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,630 ✭✭✭steelcityblues


    Tsonga looks burnt out. :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,919 ✭✭✭RosyLily


    ND & JWT trying to catch their breath after rallies; both looking so tired.

    I'll be devastated for Tsonga if he loses!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,630 ✭✭✭steelcityblues


    Feel so bad for Tsonga.

    Two matches over 8 hrs combined won't help Djokovic much, though.

    Djokovic is like a force of nature, I thought he was gone there. As so often happens, he pulled out a win when the momentum looked to have gone from completely.

    Still looks like Nadal is on course for another title, but you never know what Djokovic can pull out. There could be lots more epic tennis this week.

    anywhere i can watch this online?

    Interesting the way djokovic gets Federer in the semis as the top seed ,
    Should be Nadal Federer, but of course that would be harder for Rafi, must give him an easier draw.

    Great comeback from Kvitora.


  • Registered Users Posts: 660 ✭✭✭jupiterjack


    Nadal not having it all his own way today 4/5 first set.


  • Registered Users Posts: 660 ✭✭✭jupiterjack


    first set tie breaker Nadal Almagro


  • Registered Users Posts: 660 ✭✭✭jupiterjack


    Nadal takes breaker


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,919 ✭✭✭RosyLily


    Murray having a rough time against Ferrer on Lenglen. He's 2-4 down atm.

    Pretty good match! I always enjoy watching Ferrer play; he's a very tough player to break down.


  • Registered Users Posts: 54,596 ✭✭✭✭walshb


    Ferrer a set up and 5-4 up in the second with Murray serving!


  • Registered Users Posts: 660 ✭✭✭jupiterjack


    Nadal serving for the match.


  • Registered Users Posts: 660 ✭✭✭jupiterjack


    Game set and match Nadal 7/6 6/2 6/3.
