[McNamara That Ghost...]

Klizan holds, Nadal to serve it out.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nadal wins 4-6 6-3 6-3 6-3, for the most part that was a real slog for him and his forehand was awful. He plays Fognini tomorrow.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Benneteau breaks and leads 1-0 in the first set. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

According to the Eurosport presenter, Tsonga has never been passed the QF's of any major. :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Monfils had to match points on Robredo's serve, didn't take them. Two match points on his serve, didn't take them, then gets broken. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Azarenka leads 4-1 in the third set now.

Jim. :rose:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Stephens wins 6-4 6-7 (5-7) 6-3.

She plays the winner of Zheng vs Sharapova.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And that is on next as Azarenka wins 4-6 6-3 6-1.

Long, long match. Not helped by neither her nor Cornet being able to hold serve for much.

Azarenka plays Schiavone or Baltotelli next.

Mullins' orgasm is as annoying as Neville's.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Sharapova up a break already. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nishikori beats Paire 6-3 6-7 (3-7) 6-4 6-1!

Nadal or Fognini next for him.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Sharapova takes the first set 6-1.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic tweeted a photo of him warming up for his match. Shame he posted it upside down. :doh:

Zheng is serving for the second set.

Sharapova. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Sharapova breaks back though, 5-5.

Hate to be a bit pejorative but this is a mugest tbf.

[Rors]

:lol: He's still got it alright...

[McNamara That Ghost...]

He could do without being drunk later.

Nadal and Fognini are on court now.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What the hell Fognini. :haha:

I think that went past the backboard.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

1-1. Fognini fended off a break point there.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fognini holds again and again had to survive a break point.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a dropshot from Fognini!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nadal told to hurry the fuck up with his serving, by the umpire.

Three break points for Fognini!

Nadal. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fognini breaks on the third of them and leads 3-2 in the first set!

Nadal. :rose:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

That might be the worst return from Nadal I've seen. :haha:

Hit the ground before hitting the net on his side.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a backhand! Fog keeps opening the court up.

4-2. :popcorn:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nadal breaks back. Fognini messed up a simple overhead at 30-30. :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nadal has a set point but the forehand sails long, again.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fog saves another set point. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And another set point goes.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fognini eventually holds, 5-5.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fognini's backhand has been pretty amazing today.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Two break points for Fog!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nadal with a woeful forehand on the second of them means Fog will serve for the first set!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Two break points for Nadal. :doh:

And Nadal takes it. Tiebreak time.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Terrible smash from Fog. Nadal breaks and leads 3-2 in the second set.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Gasquet beats Davydenko 6-4 6-4 6-3.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nadal takes the second set 6-4. Fognini had the chance to break back at 15-40 and again on Ad but completely ballsed it up.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nadal leads 4-1 in the third set.

Fognini. :rose:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nadal gets broken to love whilst serving for the match. :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hampton boots out Kvitova 6-1 7-6 (9-7). :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nadal wins 7-6 (7-5) 6-4 6-4.

A well earned :doh: for Fognini.

JSAO's son next for Nadal.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic breaks and leads 1-0 in the first set. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Haas has had 12 match points against Isner, cocked them all up. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Isner takes the fourth set 7-6 (12-10). :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic leads 4-1 in the first set.

Baby Fed. :rose:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic takes the first set 6-2. Not messing about tbf.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

How has Djokovic got to that? :blink:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic breaks to love, Dimitrov getting a lesson. And he nearly smashes the ball in to a bird.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic leads 4-1 in the second set. :rose:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic takes the second set 6-2. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic getting treatment on his shoulder. Must be serious given the scoreline.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic hammers Dimitrov 6-2 6-2 6-3. :lol:

[Cripps_orig]

I have come to the conclusion that tennis is a bit shit unless one of the big boys play each other

[McNamara That Ghost...]

http://i41.tinypic.com/13z4o6.png

[McNamara That Ghost...]

David Ferrer takes the first set against Anderson 6-3.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

David Ferrer takes the second set against Anderson 6-1. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Kerber takes the second set against Kuznetsova 6-4. On to a decider.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

David Ferrer gives Anderson a good beating. 6-3 6-1 6-1.

He plays Robredo or Almagro next and that is on, next.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Kuznetsova beats Kerber 6-4 4-6 6-3, what a forehand down the line to win it. :blink: Djokovic style.

She plays Serena or Vinci next and that is on Chatrier next.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Serena leads 3-0 and to serve. :lol:

What's the point?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Almagro takes the first set 7-6 (7-5).

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Serena takes the first set 6-1. :rolleyes:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Almagro took the second set against Robredo 6-3.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Tsonga leads 6-3 6-3.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Robredo won 6-7 (5-7) 3-6 6-4 6-4 6-4.

Almagro. :doh:

Tsonga wins 6-3 6-3 6-3. Fed or Simon next for him and that match is on soon.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed shank. :bow:

Di Caprio is there.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Break point for Fed.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And a double fault gives it to Fed. He leads 2-1 in the first set. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

4-1 now. The backhand. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Set point for Fed.

Simon is a patsy out there.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Third set point for Fed now.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a passing shot to save it. :blink:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fifth set point. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

ITV are desperate to get to the advers. The black and white ticker has been in the corner for 10 minutes. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Forehand round the post from Fed! :bow:

Sixth set point.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And Fed finally takes the first set 6-1! :scarf:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mullins calls Fed a timebender and ballbender.

That's not nice.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Suarez Navarro takes the first set against Errani 7-5.

Errani had a pain in her stomach at 5-5 40-40 that stopped play for quite a while.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

The crowd have no interest in trying to motivate Simon back in to this. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed falls over. :doh:

What a sorry sight.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Simon breaks and leads 4-3 in the second set. :blink:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Simon is serving to stay in the fourth set.

Hopefully he doesn't.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a shot from Fed!

[Master Splinter]

Hi Maccy :wave:.


Federer has more glory hunters following him than Manchester United. Poor Simon. Or "Simone" as Courier calls him.

Simon actually has a competitive history against Federer. He's probably going to be blown away in the fifth, sadly.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Set point for Fed.

And hello MS.

Simon hits the net so Fed takes the fourth set 6-2. On to a fifth.

Only about 2 hours and 10 on the clock. :wacko:

[Master Splinter]

Errani serving for the match at 5-3 in the third.

The lasagne Suarez-Navarro borrowed from WUMger hasn't worked.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Suarez should bite her.

[The Wengerbabies]

Hi Maccy :wave:.


Federer has more glory hunters following him than Manchester United. Poor Simon. Or "Simone" as Courier calls him.

Simon actually has a competitive history against Federer. He's probably going to be blown away in the fifth, sadly.
Better then the perpetual jingoism that plagues Wimbledon.

Allez Roger!

[Master Splinter]

Errani wins 5-7 6-4 6-3.

Aga v Ana coming up. :popcorn:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Break point for Fed. :pray:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a woeful backhand. :lol:

Deuce.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Break point for Fed again. Simon's whack the cover of it tactic might have finally run out.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed breaks and leads 2-0 in the fifth set! :bow:

[Master Splinter]

Better then the perpetual jingoism that plagues Wimbledon.




Traditional jingoism that is prevalent whenever a 'home' player is playing in his/her country? I don't think it's exclusive to tennis, Wimbledon and Castle.

I don't think Federer needs you to defend him at all times either.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Simon. :doh:

I think he has definitely lost his composure based on that shot.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

3-0.

[The Wengerbabies]

Traditional jingoism that is prevalent whenever a 'home' player is playing in his/her country? I don't think it's exclusive to tennis, Wimbledon and Castle.

I don't think Federer needs you to defend him at all times either.

No its not exclusive to tennis, unfortunately. Nice to see the French are more mature then the Brits.

Also if Scotland become independent I do wonder if the Murray love in will quell. Doubt it.

[Master Splinter]

It's probably the most aggressively Simon has played in years, so it's not unsurprising he can't keep it up.

Muzza has the same problem. His usually occurs in semis or finals though.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

How did that drop in? :blink:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It might be that Federer has his supporters coming in frrom not just Britain but there were a lot supporting him for the Wimbledon final last year. Different in the Olympic final though tbf.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a dropshot. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Break point for Federer.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

How has Simon saved that? :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Simon holds, trails 3-1.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Simon hits the post!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Federer holds, 1-4.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Simon is serving to stay in the match at 2-5.

This might be as short as Fed's five setter with Agassi (think in 2005).

[McNamara That Ghost...]

That might just be the worst dropshot of all time.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Simon holds, Fed to serve for the match.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

15-30. :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a serve down the T. 30-30.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed sticks it in to the net. :doh:

Break point.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Down the T again. Deuce.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Match point!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed smacks this one in to the net too. Jesus wept.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Adv. Simon. :wacko:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Deuce. Phew.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Match point again. :pray:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Federer wins 6-1 4-6 2-6 6-2 6-3! He plays Tsonga next and he has been a bit beastly so far.

Stat time: Fed's 36th GS QF in a row and his 900th tour match win. :bow:

Commiserations to Simon. Great match.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

That was a pretty good match that.

Is Federer on the slippery slope though? :rose:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Well, realistically yeah but he has pubbed his way through tournaments before I suppose. Going to be tougher to do it successfully from this point onwards though.

It's not Hollywood drama Inverdale, it was a great sporting match.

[Master Splinter]

Tsonga v Federer should be awlsome.

Tsonga is little bit crowd favourite so it will be interesting to hear if the glory hunters are drowned out. Or not.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ivanovic is serving to stay in the first set at 2-5.

[Master Splinter]

Radwanska takes the first set 6-2.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Radwanska breaks and leads 4-2 in the second set.

[Rors]

Tsonga v Federer should be awlsome.

Tsonga is little bit crowd favourite so it will be interesting to hear if the glory hunters are drowned out. Or not.

Tsonga to win it. And then do that terrible cartwheel type thing to celebrate with.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hotdog from Radwanska. :bow:

She got broken straight back before that though.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Three match points for Radwanska.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ivanovic double faults to give Radwanska the win 6-2 6-4. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Santoro is definitely Simon's dad.
