[zoo youk]

3 set match may kill him

[zoo youk]

lost 2nd set but now up 2-0 in third

[zoo youk]

now tied 2-2 in third.

[SBR Lou]

He'll be alright.

[zoo youk]

He'll be alright.

down 3-2 in the 3rd. what an upset this would be.

[MoYaL]

Falla looking for revenge on the 2010 defeat when he was 2 sets up against Fed .

[zoo youk]

anyone have a stream?

[Snowball]

he'll probably eek this out
but what does it mean for his form in olympics
even if he wins, his odds are going much higher

look at these stats
59% first serve
23 unforced errors

I doubt he is going to win this one to be honest.

Sure ain't playing like a -10000 fav lol

[Snowball]

Stosur knocked out in first round

[MoYaL]

I doubt he is going to win this one to be honest.

and as I speak he breaks , lead 4-3 . should pull this one ...
but never know ... he was 5-3 up in the 2nd and blew it up.

[SBR Lou]

I doubt he is going to win this one to be honest.

Fed gets the break.

[zoo youk]

5-3

[SBR Lou]

Fed dazzling the crowd now.

[zoo youk]

[zoo youk]

[SBR Lou]

[gaebiskon]

still cant believe novak lost to this guy in this year's wimbledon semifinal

[MoYaL]

game set and match .
wasn't a good match for Fed .. but mission accomplished .
ofcourse he need to step up in the next rounds.

[zoo youk]

ovahhh

ofcourse he need to step up in the next rounds.

i think the 3 set games could really hurt him.

[MoYaL]

still cant believe novak lost to this guy in this year's wimbledon semifinal

This guy is probably the best tennis player ever to play the game ...
everyone has ups & downs.

[jjgold]

2 out of 3 sets more upsets can occur

Does Fed really care about this??

It really doesn't mean much, he bet every guy in this so much already in his career

[SBR Lou]

Does Fed really care about this??

He's only got a Gold Medal in Doubles, so I'd say so. His best chance for one.

[gaebiskon]

he is the best ever, im not doubting that but he's had some incredible luck throughout his career too
anyway, hoping for a big john vs fed match

[MUHerd37]

I'm surprised it was such a battle. Federer said a year ago that the Olympic gold medal in singles is what he wants most because it's the only thing he hasn't won.

[gaebiskon]

maybe falla is just a tough match up(btw who doesnt have a mental fortitude to close out a match) for the swiss
believe he served for the match in 2010 wimbledon 1st round against the swiss in the fifth set and of course he blew it

[Goat Milk]

Falla isn't a scrub. Fed will be fine this olympics. Gold or Silver.

[jjgold]

This feels like a scaled down version of Wimbledon

Does it count as a win for a tour event?

[AribaAriba]

he doesnt play for money this time but the honor and pride for his country to get a gold. always classy and will always be the best.

They'll get rankings points for their performance at the Olympics, so it sort of counts as winning a tour event.
