bmags Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Great match. Major finals recently have been fairly anticlimactic, leave it to Roger to bring back the epic finale in Wimbledon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted July 6, 2014 Author Share Posted July 6, 2014 Pretty epic choke by Djok right there. Celebrated too early. No way he wins this 5th set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has been an incredibly well played match. I hope Fed pulls through because he doesn't have many chances left at winning Grand Slams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted July 6, 2014 Author Share Posted July 6, 2014 Shocked Novak pulled it out. He sometimes checks out mentally. Nice bounce back in the 5th, I fear Roger may not be appreciated in time like he should be just because he is so quiet and not flashy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 I had an amazing time on Friday at US Open. Best match was granollers vs ivo karlovic or Venus Williams match. I caught wozniacki vs petkovic at the grandstand which was a bit of a breezy win for woz but was my only match at the grandstand which was sooo awesome. Also caught tail end of Taylor Townsend and Donald youngs mixed doubles match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in the area twice a year anyway, just haven't been able to time it with the tourney yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Honestly, I highly recommend. We saw parts or wholes of 5-6 matches. I'd definitely go the 1st or 2nd weekend (preferably 2nd, where there is still a ton of tennis but better matchups). So about $78 for a ticket and we saw all that, stayed at night to watch roger on TV outside the stadium. I can't think of anything else like that in major sports, beside the Olympics.

bmags Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 One of Stan's points was gorgeous. He kept pushing him further off the court and just when you think he'll hit it baseline, he rips a ridiculous angle even further off to the right that he couldn't get catch up.

bmags Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I thought the same v. Djokovich. I was really bummed for a bit, I was really hoping for 1 last major for Federer this year, but at least wanted a semis/final match. It was hard watching Monfils just lose it like that. His high points and erratic concentration, drinking of cocacola, doing "no look" shots despite there being no way that would affect an opponents sight line make him the most interesting tennis player. Just so bizarre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Played in my first tennis tourney last night. Got my ass kicked. He was hitting passing shots along the baseline all day. Either I'm bad for my level or he was amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
