Federer: That's the match
Once he wins this third set, he's going to put on the gas.

say 'meh eh eh eh'
But he didn't, the Djoker choked.
In reply to JahJah
Now, who choked there on a set game? Federer, I can't believe you did.
Ok, Federer. Let's see who's the real Choker. Tie up this game or go home.
In reply to Casper
Errrrm, even if he wins, won't he be going home...to celebrate?
In reply to JahJah
But would that be Dubai or Basel?
The way for Federer to win this match is to resist overpowering the backhand and just keep putting that ball back in play, forcing the error by the Djoker or waiting for the right moment to pounce.
Federer choked when he had the game on his racket.
Can a Federer choke twice in two games? That would destroy him mentally.
Fed woulda/coulda have 4-5 more championships if he wasnt such a choker
Tennis is one of the few sports where the player who wins the most points and most games
can still end up losing the match. Federer won 34 games, 2 more than Djokovic. The scoring system of lawn tennis with its Deuces and Ads etc. needs to be revamped. Admittedly its difficult to tinker with it without affecting overall stats.

Flimsy excuse
In reply to FuzzyWuzzy
Just an observation. I have had this view for decades. The scoring system is too complicated. I didnt see the match but Federer must have played out of his skin. In a sport which requires so much athleticism and fitness, its incredible that a 37 year old would playing the way he is and easily beating younger guys.
Its remarkable how much better the mens top three is from the rest of the players. Is it that Djoker, Nadal and Fed are that good?
In reply to Benjie
Of course they are that great

They are replaying the match on Tennis Channel
In reply to Benjie
Because that is how tennis is set up not because he was superior. If it were most games determines a winner you would see less tanking when a player falls too far behind in a set.
In reply to benjie
Everyone could see Djokovic let the 2 set go after he was so far behind.
Tennis is won by winning the points that matter not by winning the most points
