BP Haas. C'mon buddy!

**apk2k6** · 07-23-08, 07:16 PM

Wow Haas had 2 break point opportunities and blows it.

On a good note though, Gonzo just broke Acasuso.

**SBR Lou** · 07-23-08, 07:18 PM

Gonzo up a break!

**apk2k6** · 07-23-08, 07:22 PM

Back to 3-3 now. ahhh c'mon Gonzo!

**SBR Lou** · 07-23-08, 07:35 PM

Come on GONZO break points!!!!

**SBR Lou** · 07-23-08, 07:36 PM

What a choke artist gonzo is, has dbl break points now it's deuce at 5-3....

**SBR Lou** · 07-23-08, 07:41 PM

Gonzo fought off like 3 straight match points.. Come on..

**apk2k6** · 07-23-08, 07:45 PM

Wow c'mon Gonzo

**apk2k6** · 07-23-08, 07:46 PM

Haas/Davydenko suspended due to darkness. Maybe they'll let the Gonzo match finish

**apk2k6** · 07-23-08, 07:47 PM

Match over. Man I'm upset

**SBR Lou** · 07-23-08, 07:47 PM

Just blow the game Gonzo I don't even care anymore. Putting us through agony watching him stave off so many match points.

Sorry, he had no biz losing that match. Inexcusable really.

How about James Blake getting massacred to the tune of 6-1 first set also. Another grade A choke artist.

**mathdotcom** · 07-23-08, 07:58 PM

Smog is absolutely brutal in Toronto this time of year. Maybe those from nicer climates gonna struggle.

**HeeeHAWWWW** · 07-23-08, 08:01 PM

Federer in trouble here. He played really well first set, and then gradually destructed throughout the 2nd. The break he gave away to lose the set was utterly horrible, 4 unforced errors in a row.

**HeeeHAWWWW** · 07-23-08, 08:08 PM

Digs himself out there, few really nice shots from nowhere to break.

Federer's serve will probably carry him over the finish line, but this wasn't impressive (except for the first 6ish games, where he was terrific).

**apk2k6** · 07-23-08, 08:16 PM

Tiebreak time...let's go Haas!!!

**HeeeHAWWWW** · 07-23-08, 08:21 PM

Federer gets a break up, and now the unforced errors come back utterly horribly. Loses his serve again to love, and looks at times like he's totally lost confidence in his groundstrokes.

Federer could seriously lose here.

**daggerkobe** · 07-23-08, 08:27 PM

Russian mafia guy wins.

I only win tennis and WNBA plays now.

**apk2k6** · 07-23-08, 08:30 PM

Wow what a bad day for me in tennis. At least I'm doing pretty well in MLB

**HeeeHAWWWW** · 07-23-08, 08:30 PM

LOL! Brilliant break by Federer again. Now he'll start playing like a pub player on his own serve, yet again......

Bizarre game.

**HeeeHAWWWW** · 07-23-08, 08:33 PM

And that's exactly what happens, Federer breaks himself yet again with loads more errors, for the 3rd time in a row.

**daggerkobe** · 07-23-08, 08:37 PM

Simon 5-4....... if Federer loses this he should hang it up, he's clearly washed up.

**daggerkobe** · 07-23-08, 08:39 PM

Joaquin Phoenix only a game away from the upset

**EaglesPhan36** · 07-23-08, 08:39 PM

Damn it. I talked myself out of Simon at +1500. Why didn't I toss 10 bucks at it even? ****. Perfect spot play & I ****ed the pooch.

**HeeeHAWWWW** · 07-23-08, 08:39 PM

He needs a coach, I've been saying it for a year (Higueras doesn't count, he was a patch job for the claycourt season). Once he got unwell around the turn of the year, the technical problems got amplified, and when his confidence drops now he

I just put $600 on Djokovic to win the US Open, +400 at SBO. Great price, as Nadal is way overrated for that market, and I can't see this Federer winning it. Djokovic is the clear favourite imo, yet +400.....

**daggerkobe** · 07-23-08, 08:40 PM

0-30

**SBR Lou** · 07-23-08, 08:40 PM

Oh

My

God

I can't believe my eyes.........

**daggerkobe** · 07-23-08, 08:40 PM

0-40

**daggerkobe** · 07-23-08, 08:40 PM

Wow Gladiator Has Done It!!!!!!!

**SBR Lou** · 07-23-08, 08:41 PM

roger Federer Was Just Beaten By Simon

**HeeeHAWWWW** · 07-23-08, 08:41 PM

Entirely typical of Federer's match there. Lots of unforced errors, blows serve to love.

**SBR Lou** · 07-23-08, 08:41 PM

You've got to be kidding me......

On bright side, I don't think many were on his ML.. Too expensive.

**daggerkobe** · 07-23-08, 08:42 PM

Federer is now officially a has-been joke

**EaglesPhan36** · 07-23-08, 08:42 PM

It's not that shocking that Fed lost really, is it? First match from probably the biggest letdown match of his life & he falters. Simon was red hot. It was the perfect storm. Just too bad some of us didn't make some money!

**SBR Lou** · 07-23-08, 08:43 PM

Wasn't Fed about -4500?
