    Federer Didnt Even Show Up Today

    looks completely disinterested out there.

    I agree he should just retire this match already.

    Good that one played +4.5 on Berdych...cover up the idiot play on Almagro yesterday. No more Almagro on hard court that is for sure!

    Parlay with Sharapova and Fish also made some good money today

    Federer wanted a quick win. If it does not come he will have a second thought if he wants it.

    Berdych has given Fed fits the last two years. I think it's time we give credit to the guys beating Federer and to not always chalk it up as "Fed didn't want to be here" ....

    Berdych Vs Djokovic should be extremely interesting. I was not pleased with Jokers game today despite the fact he rallied.. If anyone was watching, Monfils started tanking in the 3rd set, it was completely obvious.. He was running out of breathe and at 1 time even signaled for the trainer.

    I don't think half of you guys understand what "tanking" is ... seems to be a popular term. TANKING is flat out disinterest in being in a match. CHOKING is blowing a match where you've got the lead and your opponent on the ropes, be it due to nerves or whatever.

    Dolgopolov loves to tank.

    Had mostly to do with Berdych, never cared for Fed's backhand, its pretty weak and more a defensive shot.

    Berdych should have won his last 5 matches with Federer. Very difficult opponent for him nowadays.
