Raonic's first serve percentage is shite in this set.

Raonic is dead. If he is injured he should quit. He's had big injuries before and no sense in aggravating your current problem.

Can't compete with Murray's "superhuman" endurance.

Prediction: It will be a boring final played by boring players who play boring tennis. Murray will of course lose (and whine).

I hope Kim calls Andy and he fucks off in the middle of the match while shouting 'see you later shitlords'.Alain Post posted:Can't compete with Murray's "superhuman" endurance. You are thinking of Djokovic and prime Nadal. Murray's endurance is nothing compared to that.

When Murray beat Djokovic in the 2012 US Open final in five sets that was a really good match. Also the French Open semi-final last year which went to five sets. But yeah, generally not as memorable as other big four matchups. They are basically the same player, only Djokovic has that extra 5%, so it's not that interesting stylistically.

Murray owns and I sincerely hope he wins. But he won't. Again. Sunday is going to loving suck.

I honestly thought Kerber had no shot but she's prove me wrong. I'm not sure if it's her playing out of her skin or Serena playing a bit worse than normal but thats kind of how all tennis matches work anyway.

Rooting hard for Kerber here. She's sort of flying under the radar, compared to the more popular German players like Petkovic and Lisicki.

Serena is off a bit in her arm, I dunno if she's carrying an injury or not but her power is not where she's expecting it to be, both over and under hitting. Kerber has also been playing sublime passes and Serena has been walking into them

First that drop, and then out-slugging Serena while nearly sitting down. Wow.

Serena's definitely a little off, but Kerber's playing fantastic, consistent tennis and getting everything back often with interest. Hopefully she can close it out.

Well I think Kerber might have just lost.

BAM. What a great match.Solemn Sloth posted:That was a real good game and Kerber looks like she absolutely belongs playing for championships I've always been a little miffed that Jon Wertheim over at si.com has the habit of ignoring Kerber. He always sort of dismisses her as a plucky veteran. Looking forward to his Australien Open parting thoughts now. Jack's Flow fucked around with this message at 11:56 on Jan 30, 2016 |

The Germans will not allow the record to be equalled or broken. Only 21 to go, Kerber.

I choose to not wake up at 3:30 am to watch the match because of course Serena would win. I chose wrong.

Missed the ladies final but really happy for Kerber. Last year she played some of the most entertaining women;s matches and was on the wrong end of most of them. And I love the crouching shot she does. e: ^^^^ Me too buddy. I set the alarm and ignored it Sodium Chloride fucked around with this message at 16:18 on Jan 30, 2016 |

Glad Serena lost. Hope a good young talent in the womens game emerges soon, it desperately needs it.

Man Murray looked good that first game but sadly it seems like all he had was one game in him.

Hey who remembers when eastern Europe dominated every sport ever for like a span of 30 years. Seriously though, Djokovic needs to stop making people look bad so I can watch some tennis.

At least Murray's staying calm so far, it looks like he knew this was a possibility. He got better towards the end of that set.
