Wimbledon 2011

Tsonga's going to do a massive shite and gain half a yard in pace. It's those margins that turn games at the top level of sport.
 
If Tsonga can get that forehand working like he did at the end of the 3rd its going to get tricky for Novak.
 
He was on Tsong in this tie break.
 
Can lightning striker twice? That 2nd set apart he's been pretty good today.
 
Very good character from Djokovic. Ice cold professionalism.


How can you not be loving this?

I'm a bit lost by it too?...And people saying it's all over after the first set & talking about the final etc...This is a far better match than Murray - Nadal will probably be. Why are you watching Tennis if you don't want to be watching Tennis? This is great Tennis, watch the fecking Tennis!!
 
That's because he has possesses the neurophysiological ability of smiling.

He's trying, you insensitive cnut.

It strikes me as someone who thinks tennis is boring so just wants to watch Murray, and then there's a great match like this and thinks it's boring because that's what their mind says immediately at the thought of tennis, without realising that this is great and it's watching the likes of Murray that makes it seem boring.

Yeah, tennis.
 
It's like when Federer and Safin faced off in the GOAT match in the semis of the Aussie Open but home town people were like ignoring the greatness in front of them because they just wanted Hewitt to be on already...
 
Tsonga is an absolute animal.. If only he could get some consistency in his game..

Or, "Wimbledon's on, and I want to get into it, cos it's, like, on the telly & in all the papers and shit, but I only really want to watch the big games with the big name players in them, because then I can talk about it, with all the other people who are only watching them, or Murray matches, and that will probably be more entertaining than just watching most Tennis anyway, which I don't really want to do...And why don't we sign Messi? Can he play Tennis?"

Messi would be good at tennis if he was taller, I bet Van Der Sar is an excellent tennis player, good hand control and his serve would be lethal.

Yeah, Tsonga.

That match was better than Fedal at Wimbledon imo.

And well tbf to the Aussies, Hewitt does give them a lot of marathon matches.

Yeah, Tsonga.

I don't think Messi's got the arm strength...He might be good at women's tennis. VDS could've been the new Goran.
 
Agassi-Blake in 2005 was another good GOAT contender...But the fact it was a Quarter, and Blake is useless off the hard courts sort of relegates it a little. I used to really love Agassi when I were a nipper. Hated Pistol Pete.

There have been some absolutely awesome rallies in this game. We won't get anything like the agile net drama in Murray-Nadal.

Same here :D

Watching Agassi vs Nadal was difficult!
 
The more I think about it, the more I'm convinced Messi would be rubbish at Tennis. You need a good stride really. He's all about little girly quick steps. Ronaldo would be much better. I think I should take this argument into the Ronaldo vs Messi comparison thread to be honest.

I'm with you actually, he'd very much need to play on te net.
 
Was that woman shouting 'Bravo'?

feck off to the opera, you fish-faced cnut.
 
Murray's about to get another dicking. Hopefully I'm wrong and it's a good match but I can see Nadal turning the screw early on and breaking his spirit.
