then once his serve breaks down, he's going to get frustrated and overhit. i totally agree with you about his frustration. obviously every player gets frustrated when things aren't going their way, but he always lets it affect his game to the point where nothing works. i cannot wait until this friday :) |

Dang Teesa, it must really suck to live in a shitty timezone and not being able to see this live. You're really missing out.

Best I've seen Federer play all tournament long. His serve was impeccable.
Looking forward to Fed vs Murray. |

Alright Teesa, I'll eat crow tonight. Congrats Roddick, well played semi match. You probably don't stand a chance against Fed, but it would really make my month if you pulled the upset.
lol England |

BITCHASS NIGGAS I wanna give them a little more credit than that... I think NBC had exclusive rights for the match so ESPN couldn't show it. |

Roddick has been playing some of the best tennis of his life. I can't believe he's actually hitting through his backhands instead of slicing them all the time. And he's varying the speed/location of his serves to keep Fed off balance. Federer still isn't in a groove where he's winning points repeatedly. It's still a long shot, but maybe we can have an American sweep of Wimbeldon.
LET'S GO RODDICK |

I WANNA BELIEVE
Roddick's backhand has been great for the past two matches. I think that's been the key difference... you can see Federer trying to work it to Andy's backhand expecting him to hit one of those week shovel shots back, but Andy has actually hit a few winners from the left wing. |

Soo, I just read all that. LOL. FEDERERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR !!! OMG. I thought the match was NEVER going to end. I was at my dad's with his new family and my family. We were quite a lot and only 2 people were rooting for Roddick. XD I'll admit, Roddick played WONDERFULLY but Fedex's experience got him through. GO FEDEX. The BEST player of all times.
