The supremacy of Fed, Nadal, and Joker is an era the likes of tennis will never see again sadly. Well over a decade of utter dominance by all those guys.
Including today, only 10 of the last 63 Grand Slam Titles have been won by players other than Rafa, Roger and Joker. Incredible!
Why is that sad?
What is sad, in my opinion, is how racket technology has killed the sport. Federer might lose the Finals without facing a break point. That’s fucked up.
And there’s your break!
Yeah, I'm like the basketball announcer who says, "he hasn't missed a free throw..." D'oh!
I don’t love the new racket technology either, but has it really killed the sport? This has been a pretty epic age with 3 heavyweights going at it.
It's Sunday evening, do you know where your daughter is?
The rackets are made of lightweight carbon fiber and strung with spiderman fibers, shoot fire and can bend lightwaves. They also fly thru the air when thrown.
Also they don’t need that screw press. Pretty cool stuff.
Isn't Federer like 83 years old by now? I mean, I've been hearing about him since Andre Agassi was a thing back in the 90's! Friggen Dick Clark syndrome...
Federer won his first (Wimbledon) in the same year, 2003, as Agassi won his last (Australian Open).
Big double-break chance. Let’s do it fed!
Fuck yeah!!! Novak has to break at some point now to win
Exactly. He's a great returner but Fed is serving incredibly.
Massive break!
Fed’s drop shots are just stupid! Every single time to perfection!
What a fucking rally!
LFG!!!!!
5th set...no place for a nervous person.
Novak is the OSU of tennis
Nahhh
Feelingsball alert: Djokovic is the most talented player in the world right now, but Fed is the most mentally tough. The guy is just unflappable. Look how consistent he’s been every set this match.
Fuck! This is some incredible tennis!
hold on to your nipples boys, we’re in for a wild finish
Roger wasted a huge opportunity after that double fault.
Fed’s won 30 games this match and it's deadlocked. Crazy.
This is truly epic. What a match... 6-6 in the 5th. Incredible
huge break! Here we fucking go!!!
Roger with the break! Wow...serving for the match. Federer is incredible.
Wow. Two championship points..gone.
Holy fuck...Djokovic breaks back. Incredible incredible stuff.
Incredible match.
Oh my god! What a fucking break!
Federer just lost his chance.
You can never count Fed out. I think we’re headed for a tiebreak.
This is a pretty entertaining match.
This is such an important match for the future of the all time Grand Slam titles list. Fed almost has to win to have a chance to stay ahead in the history books.
Wow, just an incredible display of tennis.
Federer had him on the ropes but Novak escaped. I'm guessing Roger doesn't have enough gas left in the tank at his age.
Yeah, he's clearly out of gas. Made the final, still doing battle in the championship, 11-11.
Come on.
Tennis is one sport that has figured out how to use instant replay. The Hawkeye is awesome - fast and accurate, doesn’t break up the pace at all.
Tiebreaker seems inevitable
Not gonna lie, I'm rooting for the Slav here.
11-11!
This is the greatest match I’ve ever seen...it’s better than the 08 fed/Rafa final.
The only match that comes close for me is Andre’s last US Open when he came back against Blake and he had all the back problems.
This 11-11 game might be the greatest I’ve ever seen
What an incredible game that was. I really wish there still was no tie-break!
Here we go!!!
