I then went to lift some wieghts and after being in there for awhile popped my head in to check the score and Federer had came back and won that set and was about to win the fourth for the watch. I was impressed.

Yeah Fed was on the ropes with Jose. He's played Jose before, bt that was the 1st time on clay I think. You never know how another opponent will be on clay vs. hardcourt, and I think it threw him off. I knew Rog would win, if it had to go to a 5 setter; he didn't seem to be panicking. His stats for the game were actually pretty good, and he played some amazing defense when he had to.

I liked the fact it pushed him; Fed always plays better in a major if he is pushed in the tourny, by the time he gets to he finals he is on par. Only problem is so is Nadal. But last year Fed didn't have a tough draw and got steamrolled by Rafa; at least the 2 previous years he was pushed to play better tennis leading up to the finals and made it more competitive, though he lost

I still think Novak will beat Fed in the 1/4's; that kid has become a monster on clay; and everyone seems tof orget about Verdasco.
Novak will beat Fed im sure of that, the problem is Acasuso is having one of his worst years ever and is in horrible form and he gave Federer a scare, like i said Nadal is to god over 5 sets no ones winning 3 out of 5 sets against Nadal on clay no chance.

On another note Murray won today hate the guy but hes fighing spirit is quality could make the semis to play Nadal with a bit of luck that would be a great achievement.


Acasuso is a hit and miss kind of player; never know whenhe'll bring a game. Credit to Roger though for doing what he's SUPPOSED to do though. He really would have bee crying had he lost to Jose

I like Murray. Guy has a great game, very fit physically, and has finally stopped his moping and whining and overall sh#tty attitude. Had a great year. I used to hate him because of his wanker attitude. Istill wonder though if he will ever win a major; maybe a couple but I see him as someone who might not ever hit the pinnacle; a step above a Davydenko if you will. He is a fighter but today Tipsy quit at the end of the second set and retired, so easy day.

Glad Venus got her ass whooped. Now if only Sharapova and Serena will fail. Only oneIgive a shit about is Safina, love that girl. The women's sideis dismal though. Ivanovich is a one hit wonder; Jankovich is B+ player.

Nadal could win this FO for the next 4-5 years in a row; amazing talent.
