Oudin finally ran out of stream. Losing 6-2 6-2 to fellow teen Wozniacki. Should have a good chance of making her first Grand Slam Final. Faces someone I've never heard of in the Semi's.
Yeah earlier in the thread I mentioned that Djokovic was more talented than Murray which was debated, one thing that can't be debated is Djokovic is more charismatic than Murray, hell a fecking garage door opener is.
Garage door openers can be quite charismatic, Al. Once I tried to open the garage door but the opener fell to the floor as I tried to so that I had to go all snake man and fiddle about on the floor like a right spacker. Cheeky little bugger that garage door opener.
Hey, they've started. Fed has saved two break points?
Not the best of serve games, that.
4-0. Next set, please.
Bagel
Swedes are useless, aren't they?
Fed doing his "oh, I'm struggling in the first game, help" trick again.
Söderling takes a game 
My stream died but I can't be bothered to look for a new one, game is over.
6-0 5-2 Fed
59 minutes for two sets, this might as well be a women's match
Søderling is a woman.
Bit harsh, don't you think? He's hardly an offensive character, he just can't beat Federer.
Harsh? I've nothing against women.
Soderling comes from 4-0 down in the tie-break to win 8-6. Federer leads 2-1.
Söderling wins the tiebreak. Seriously impressive.
The Söd has really stepped it up. Fed to win the set 6-4, though.
Shocked Soderling even won a set turned the tv back on and I was like how is this match still fecking going.
5-5 in the fourth set, exciting stuff.
They're wiping each other out in the serve games now.
Fed would be wise to end this ASAP, Djokovic will be a tough semi, surely a tougher one than what Nadal will face.
Tiebreak. I really hope it goes to five sets, though it's six in the morning here.
This is amazing. Four killer serves in a row.
Federer wins, surprisingly good match.
Fed wins, shocked it went on that long
6-0 6-3 6-7 7-6 (8-6)
6-0 6-3 6-7 7-6 (8-6)
FFS. Federer marches on.
don't think so, del potro will be tough as nails
Everyone is amazed about the power these guys are showing, but what's even more impressive is the timing. The way these guys bring the power at just the right time and pick their points carefully is a beautiful thing. Federer never really had the most powerful serve in the game but he still managed to get 28 aces in this match because he chose the right moments to place the hardest serves he could in just the right places.
Federer v Djokovic is going to be fun.

The wheelchair tennis was neat, the girl playing had won 368 consecutive matches !!!
Is it my stream, or are Del Potro's arms skinnier than usual today?
That was a bizarre point.
Anyone watching? I've been busy on Skype. I hear Nadal has won 20 of 21 points on his serve. Has he been anywhere near breaking himself?
Nadal has been ridiculous on his serve. Nearly unstoppable.
