Wouldn't be surprised if Serena broke here to take the set and then ran away with the third.

Called it.

Serena does this so often though that it doesn't really come as a surprise anymore.

I love how 5 years on Serena keeps proving me right :-)

Champion.

 

[Jono]

Cue Jono with how awesome Williams is when her back is against the wall.

Pretty satisfying tbh :-)

federer seems out of sorts to start with...is this the one where his incredible streak gets broken?

 

[vic_orthdox]

Robert Carlyle with two break points first game of second set!

 

[superkingdave]

Thank **** for Eurosport, BBC not deigning to show Fed-Davy it seems.

Anyway, Cilic must be paying some decent odds to knock Murray out tomorrow? If he comes out and hits a hot streak i can easily see it happening, especially if Fed gets knocked out today.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Going to be a great time to go to the news... Bloody hell.

 

[R_D]

Followed by today tonight and than Home and Away

 

[Burgey]

Fed's lateral movement about as good as mine atm. Comms carrying in about Davydenko and he's in awesome form, but he's only had to get the ball back. Roger's horrible atm, set and a break down

Yeah, and that's what bugs me more than going to the news. News I can understand, and it's only half an hour, but to go to a lame current news affair show and a ridiculously bad soapie really makes me annoyed.

Fed in trouble here though. Break down in the second. Would have to be a pretty big effort and massive improvement to get out of this one.

 

[Burgey]

My man-love for Fed just gets stronger.. WAFG

Switch those two around. Davydenko has lost the plot here completely. Come on FFS

so gay... don't get to watch this....

Carn Fed..

 

[Simon]

****ing Home and Away and today tonight, ****ing channel 7, Dav vs Feds is gonna be over by the time this crap is over.

 

[Son Of Coco]

Davydenko He's backpedalling his way out of the stadium. I can't watch it at the moment to see how well Federer is playing, but Davydenko is registering a doughnut in the 3rd set...

 

[Dydl]

Fed, you legend.

What a turn-around so far.

 

[Burgey]

Still up a break in the 4th?

 

[Dydl]

Nup, back on serve.

 

[Burgey]

**** it!

 

[Dydl]

**** it!

He's serving well though; saved about 5 break points from his last two service games with some very good serving.
