[McNamara That Ghost...]

I didn't reckon with Muzza, three set points for Raonic though he just saved the first.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Anderson took out Stan 7-6 (7-1) 4-6 6-1. :blink:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Break point for Fed!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Deuce.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Adv. Fed. Somehow ran around his backhand to stay in that point. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Not so good. Tame one in the net, Deuce.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Double fault from Haas, Adv. Fed.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Poor from Haas. Fed breaks and leads 3-2 in the first set.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Haas breaks back though, 3-3.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Three break points for Fed. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

All of them gone.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed does eventually break however, 3-2 in the second set. Crosscourt forehand winner. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Haas serving to stay in the match.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And he does so, Fed to serve it out.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Old Man Fed wins against Old Man Haas 6-4 6-4. :bow:

Fun match, Fed was never in trouble though really.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed beat Anderson 7-5 6-1. Dolgopolov next for him after beating Raonic 6-3 6-4.

Isner - Gulbis and Benneteau - Djokovic are the other quarter-finals today.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed easily beat Dolgopolov 6-3 6-1.

Djokovic eventually beat Isner 7-5 6-7 (2-7) 6-1.

Fed and Djokovic meet in the final tonight. Their 33rd meeting. Insane that Nadal, Federer and Djokovic have played well over 100 matches between them.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed and Djokovic are on court now. This is on SS3. :popcorn:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Two awesome winners from Fed.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Amazing shot from Fed. :blink:

Not even sure how to describe it.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Two double faults from Djokovic in this game. Worryingly looking like 2009 Djokovic, though he'll probably sort it out as the match goes on.

Adv. Fed on Djokovic's serve!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed does get the break and leads 2-0 in the first set!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Awesome crosscourt backhand from Djokovic.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

5-3, Fed to serve it out.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Three set points!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed takes the first set 6-3! So good to watch.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic not finding his backhand down the line, would have been break point.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed holds, 1-1 in the second set.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Great combination of backhand across court and moving in to sweep the forehand in the opposite direction from Fed.

3-3 in the second set, Nole to serve.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic breaks and will serve for the second set.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic takes the second set 6-3.

On to a decider. :popcorn:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Very tough service game for Fed, saves a break point and comes through it.

The low camera cut is so annoying.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic is on it now.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic breaks and leads 2-1 in the third set.

Fed breaks back on the second of them, it's 5-5!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

JesusFed resurrection.

Djokovic now serving to stay in the Championship!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hate to see big title matches decided on a tie-break but that's what it shall be.

:popcorn:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic with the double mini-break, it's slipping away.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic wins 3-6 6-3 7-6 (7-3) to win his 17th Masters and third at Indian Wells!

Good effort from Fed but just retreated to bad habits in going baseline to baseline with Djokovic and Nole went full-on not missing anything mode.

On to Miami, Fed back up to 5 in the world.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed is rambling a bit. Thanking the cameramen. :unsure:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Speaking of Miami, draw just been made:

Fed may have Karlovic first up. :lol: That'll be fun for him.

Nadal has Haase or Hewitt.

Not that they ever happen but possible QF's - Nadal/Del Potro, Stan/Berdych, Murray/Djokovic, Federer/David Ferrer.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic breaks to love and will serve for the match!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic beats Muzza 7-5 6-3! Muzza loses a boatload of ranking points too.

Fed will play Djokovic again if he beats JSAOs son early in the morning, our time.

[Master Splinter]

Murray just wilts so easily at the moment.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

JSAOs son beat Fed 3-6 7-5 6-4. :doh:

Federer is up to fourth in the rankings now so mission achieved I guess. :unsure:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nadal and Djokovic both had walkovers to the final courtesy of Berdych and Nishikori. :rolleyes:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Serena won the women's event.

Nadal vs Djokovic in their 40th (:haha:) meeting is on at about 7:30pm.

Obscene returning and rallying from Djokovic. He breaks and leads 1-0 in the second set!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Two woeful shots from Djokovic, 0-30. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Break point for Djokovic!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nadal comes up with a winner. Deuce.

Davis Cup on this weekend:

Italy 1-1 GB on currently.

Italian national anthem. :bow:

GB lead 1-2 after winning in the doubles, as do Kazakhstan.

Muzza is down a set and a break on Fognini in his last singles rubber though. :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Three match points for Fognini!

Seppi against Ward in the decider. :popcorn:

[Master Splinter]

Muzza :doh:.

The Italian crowd are basically Stoke fans.

Ward to hammer Seppi tbf.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Seppi is up two sets and a break. Fair to see Team GB are going out.

Stan serving for the match against Kukushkin. Will mean it's all on Old Man Feed to beat Golubev. If he can't do that on an indoor hard in Switzerland, he should retire.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Stan does win 6-7 (4-7) 6-4 6-4 6-4.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Match point for Seppi!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Seppi blows it on a second serve.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ward holds on, Seppi to serve for the match.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Three match points for Seppi.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Seppi wins 6-4 6-2 6-4 to take the tie 3-2 for Italy! Switzerland or Kazakhstan next for them.

GB. :rose:

Overend is a dreadful commentator.

[Master Splinter]

Muzza to be dropped for Evans?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It's only fair.

Fed has just won 7-6 (7-0) 6-2 6-3 to take the tie for the Swiss 3-2. :bow:

Semi-final against Italy as mentioned. Presumably on clay.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

He just needed me to help him get over the line. 2-2.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Two break points for David Ferrer. :lol:

Half an hour for nearly four games.

Nadal passed at the net in this game. :blink:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And a double fault gives it up. 3-1 David Ferrer leads. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Back on serve. Dear god.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Two break points for David Ferrer. What the hell is going on with these two?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

After all that, it is tie-break time.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

David Ferrer leads 1-5. And Nadal took the lead. :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Five set points for David Ferrer!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And David Ferrer takes the first set 7-6 (7-1)! :bow:

Nadal. :lol:

Only an hour and 25 for that set. :wacko:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

David Ferrer breaks and leads 2-1 in the second set!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

He breaks again and will serve for the match.

Nearly 40 UEs for Nadal. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nadal gets one of the breaks back. :rolleyes:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

David Ferrer has one more chance to serve it out, which presumably won't come easy for him.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

30-30. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Match point for David Ferrer!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

David Ferrer dumps Nadal out of the Monte Carlo Masters 7-6 (7-1) 6-4!!! :bow: :bow: :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Tsonga takes the first set 6-2. :blink:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Federer is taking missed break points to a whole new level today.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Code violation for Fed. Sends a ball out the stadium. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Great crosscourt backhand from Old Man Feed. Another break point to waste now.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

There goes the 11th opportunity.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Different game, Fed's 12th break point opportunity coming up now.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And there it goes. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

13th one now...

Irony meter going to explode if he gets it this time.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And he doesn't. Great stuff from Tsonga at the net.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Tsonga holds on, Fed serving to stay in the match.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It's 6-6. :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Federer did take the second set 7-6 (8-6) and won the decider 6-1.

GW. :lol:

Djokovic is up a break in the third set against Garcia-Lopez, so Federer and Djokovic will meet for the 34th time, probably.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic wins 3-6 6-4 6-1.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Stan just beat David Ferrer 6-1 (7-6) 7-3 to make the final!

Fed - Djokovic next. Djokovic has heavy taping on his wrist.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed hits a ballboy with the ball. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a dropshot from Fed. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic leads 2-3, Fed to serve.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Brilliant shotmaking from both protecting their serves.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Break point for Fed!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Deuce. Fed. :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic holds on, Fed serving to stay in the first set. Not good.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a rally. Especially as there were some mugs stood up in Djokovic's eyeline during it.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Two set points for Djokovic. :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

One set point remaining. Ridiculous movement from Nole though.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Deuce. Wow.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Oh my god, what a rally! :bow: :bow: :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed holds on, 5-5.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed tearing Nole to shreds now.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Two more break points for Fed.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed does break again and leads 4-1 in the second set.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Old Man Feed to serve it out.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Match point for Fed!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Federer beats Djokovic 7-5 6-2 to reach the Monte Carlo final and make it an all-swiss encounter against Stan!

Sorry for Nole's injury, losing that first set in the way he did clearly meant the bottom fell out of him in the second.

JesusFed rescued the two set points against him and then it all went downhill for Djokovic.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed and Stan on court soon. :popcorn:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Adv. Fed on Stan's serve!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Stan breaks and leads 2-0 in the second set.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Three break points for Fed. Rancid play from Stan.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ridiculous backhand down the line from Fed to get the break back.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed. :cloud9:

Amazing backhand.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed had to tough it out and save more break points. 2-2.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Stan takes the second 7-6 (7-5).

On to a decider.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Stan up a double break in the decider. :rose:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Dreadful return from Djokovic off a second serve and deuce.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Three break points for Nadal. Three awful shots from Nole.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nadal breaks on the third of them and leads 2-1.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic actually went down a second break, only a couple of points from levelling it at 4-4 now. :lol:
