From two match points to doubling twice in a row at deuce in the next game - I want Fed to win, but man, that's rough.

It's rough but Monfils is full of crazy. Anything can happen with him. Remember how he battled back against Murray at the French Open only to play pathetically and get bageled in the fifth?

Roger was flaccid the first 2 sets, worked himself up to a half-chub in the 3rd and 4th, and now he's about to pull out the footlong

Probably not, but that would be funny.

it's close to impossible for Monfils to recover from 2 match points and double double faulting at 5 all

Monfils nearly ruined the U.S. Open giving Djokovic a free pass to another slam. He realized this and threw the match. Good for him taking one for the team.

drat I missed the match. Was on the court preparing for the fall league starting up on Saturday. Looks like it's going to be a rematch of Wimbledon assuming no upsets. My money is on Fed taking it home in the end.

So now you can take medical timeouts in the middle of a game after 10 minutes of "evaluation" in which they were clearly treating her? This seems fairly ridiculous. I understand it's a semifinal and no one wants to see it decided by cramping, but this seems unfair to Wozniacki to stop during a break point for that long.

Rooting for Wozniacki like there is no tomorrow. Channel your rage! You can doooo iiit. Also, I enjoyed this essay on the line judges at the US Open: http://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/25/sports/tennis/at-the-us-open-they-know-the-ins-and-outs.html?_r=1

[quote="Courtney Nguyen @FortyDeuceTwits"] Peng has no recollection of being down on the court the 2nd time. Doesnt remember actually retiring, doesnt remember Woz coming over. [/quote]

Sounds like a concussion, time to set up a blue ribbon panel to investigate. (That actually sounds awful, it must have been heatstroke? Bouchard looked like she was having similar problems in her last match too)

Yeah, Eurosport reported that it was heat stroke. How the gently caress could they let her back out on court? She was smiling and laughing in the press room hours later though, so thats good. Sooo who thinks Kei has a chance to win today? The odds for him to win are ridiculous, I'm tempted to put a small bet on the moneyline. EDIT it's getting hard to breathe just by watching this. Even hotter today in NY than yesterday. fancyclown fucked around with this message at 17:38 on Sep 6, 2014 |

As well as Nishikori is playing at the moment Djokovic can only go up from here. I do have a little bet on Nishikori. I think the wind and heat/humidity will annoy Djokovic more.

Kei really really should have beat Nadal earlier this year, and even though Nadal clearly wasn't at his best, I think it's not a foregone conclusion at all.

Place a bet for Nishikori going up two sets, Djokovic fighting back to even it out, then Nishikori taking an MTO in the fifth set

Holy poo poo. C'mon Kei! Djokovic shows his on court anger against Murray wasn't a one off. He looks super pissed. The crowd cheering for the Nishikori isn't going to help either. e: Djokovic is serving like poo poo again, like he did against Murray for 20 minutes or so.

God drat I had to go out during the second set and expected a Djokovic victory by the time I got back. I'd love to see Nishikori win it all. His run this tournament has been really great. C'mon
