You were saying...
I should have just kept it shut. Although I think it's been exceptional stuff from Djokovic rather than Tsonga choking.Is this on British TV anywhere?
Eurosport
Tsonga is a beast.
Just got in and this looks to be an exciting finish!

Tsonga's defence has been surprisingly good. Hell win.
Have to say Djokovic has incredible mental strength. Most players woke have lost long time ago. He's somehow taken it this far and now has set point.
Thanks!
5 setter baby! Come on Novak!
What a match! Federer's match was apparently awesome, too.
Yeap. Crazy that he is able to face match points in so many matches and turn it around.
Well done Djokovic. Fantastic bottle to take that set.
Good that Federer's game is over. Was hard watching two matches at once!

I'd be surprised if Tsonga still win this now.
Djoko is absolutely amazing.
And Tsonga didn't lose those 4 match points, Djokovic came up with something great to win them.
Can't see Tsonga winning. Looks shattered and all the crowd have left. Unfortunate.
Why have they left?
It was raining. I'm not sure if it still is. Officials came out and swept the court, but left the lines covered in dust to make sure the match went on.
Djokovic breaks the serve.
They thought it would be postponed? Doesn't make sense to pay money to leave at the most important stage of the match because it's raining.
That was unbelievable by Djokovic to win the 4th. It's set up now for a great 5th. Tsonga needs to break back asap.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure they thought it would be called off. I agree. Bit of rain never hurt anybody.
Djokovic is ridiculous. How many match points has he saved?
4.
Unreal really.
Don't tell me he's gonna feck up this set again.

Novak with two break points to make it 5-1
I feel bad for Tsonga.
He has just destroyed Tsonga in this set
Hahah I hate Tsonga so much, arrogant cnut
That was inevitable
Tbf Djokovic has the biggest balls in tennis at the moment. Who'd have guessed that 2 years ago.
Gutted for Tsonga. He's my favourite player, every game he plays in is a spectacle.
This isn't the first time Novak has shortened my life.
And now a beautiful two days of rest to recharge emotionally and physically.

Gutted. I love Tsonga. Hope he manages to get a slam.
Brilliant match. I'm doing gash on the horses at the moment but 5/1 about Djoko a couple of times in that match was a bit of a gift considering what happened at Flushing last year against Federer.
I feel for Tsonga. For me, after Federer, he's the most stylish and classy player to watch. But he's still got to work on his consistency. He just goes on a mental walkabout during phases of tennis matches.
True. He has fantastic ability, and is capable of some magic. Consistency is as you say a problem. Losing the first set today after 21 minutes showed this.
I'm glad I missed the final set. It was all so inevitable really. Hopefully Fed can take out Novak in the semis or yet another disappointing Grand Slam final potentially awaits.
Disappointing? Their last two GS finals have been outstanding! Federer will just get twatted against Nadal. Djokovic I feel is the only guy who has a slim chance to beat him here or at least put up a fight.
Or are you talking from the perspective of a Nadal fan?
