Well I guess at this point, Roger probably is going to welcome a suspension seeing as he's about to have let it slip back to even.Comment -
Hold everything. 3 bp for FedComment -
Took Fed at +240 to win the 4th set and about 5 min later he was at +600 to win the 4th.

.... and I had to be at work today. Any chance ESPN puts this one on Classic sports tonight?
LOLComment -
Huge break back. Gotta consolidate.Comment -
Can't even imagine who the tie break would favor should it get there.
... and I'm missing thisComment -
This reminds me exactly of the 1st set. Going to a tie break, obviously if Fed wins it's over - but if he doesn't, momentum is all on Djokovic ... saving grace again being that they won't start the 5th because of darkness.Comment -
God Damn epic boys. The only thing that would top this - this year for Roger is if he found a way to beat Rafa on Sunday. Very doubtful, but awesome to see the King step up and end a brilliant winning streak and get some accolades.Comment -
What an amazing match guys. If that match went to a fifth set tomorrow you guys know Djokovic would have won so you have to hand it to Federer. Amazing how he broke back in the fourth after getting broken.
The great win by Roger means that both my rafa and Federer outrights are making it all the way till the end so I am going to have to figure out some way to put some more money on rafa to even out the returns a bit
It's going to be a great final BUT it looks as though the rain is going to get in the way of it. Nothing worse then waiting for the rain to stop then the courts to get ready and the players to warm up, etc etc. If Federer can find a way to beat Rafa in the finals it would further solidify him as the greatest ever eventhough that really shouldn't be up for debate really.
Hopefully you guys made some money today. I remember seeing some people that said they were going to tail Federer outright's as well and that were going to bet Federer today over Djokovic so I know at least some of you had a really good day today.Comment -
Grass is Federer's best surface IMO simply because he dominates on it in the short season and it's more of a specialty surface than any other. I think Clay & Hard courts you can argue are close to even for him. People always seem to forget his record on clay just because he hadn't broken through @ RG for a title until a couple years ago. Guy was still making finals in a lot of tournaments. Hard courts people will say is his worst because of results .... I don't think it's that he's gotten poor on the surface. I think all the young power players can win on hard courts because of their serves on any given day and that evens the playing field more than ever.
I still think it will be tough for Federer to beat Nadal. Yes, Nadal isn't quite as dominant as he was - but look at this tournament alone. Survived a scare from Isner and hasn't dropped a set since. Federer clearly played a motivated match today, but he was within a mistake or two in the 4th set of probably being in big trouble in the 5th.Comment -
All good points. The reason why I did not understand the odds on Djokovic is because like I said before I firmly believed that Fed is the better clay court player or the line is very very thin between the two on clay while Djokovic is clearly better on the hard now. Now that the balls have changed this gives Fed that advantage plus the advantage of knowing how to deal with the always tricky conditions at RG. I think those two things give him a chance. Nadal did not look so sharp against a 80% Murray. If Fed can serve a little better than he did today and maybe come to the net a little more we could see another epic 4/5 setterCause Sleep is the Cousin of DeathComment -
everything's fine but i don't wanna see nadal in 1st place anymore

Congrats to Li Na backers. Hope you guys were on the right side todayComment -
Can't wait for the final tomorrow. Hopefully the weather cooperates. I am pretty sure that Rafa wins the final over Federer so I have put some additional money on Rafa to balance the two outrights I have a bit better.
Best of luck tomorrow guys. Should be a great final.Comment -
Warming up yoComment -
Looks like Rafa's first service game is gonna cost him the 1st set.Comment -
Wow! Nadal breaks with Fed serving for the setComment -
Nadal breaks him again and now serves for set! Hard for Fed to mentally takeComment -
Nadal down 5-2 and wins 5 straigt to take it 7-5. What a comeback!Comment -
You know what continues to irk me about the fukking French, #1, unlighted courts. #2, not using the challenge system. What the fukk is wrong with the organizers of this event? Do they just want to be in the dark ages forever?Comment -
Now 3 straight breaks for Nadal.Comment -
Yeah I have no idea why they don't fix those things.Comment -
Well, Federer finally won a game after losing 7 straightComment -
