[The Wengerbabies]

Murray won 6-4 6-1 6-3

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Sharapova beat Lucic 6-3 6-0.

Ivanovic lost the first set to an unseeded player. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ok in fairness to Ivanovic, she took the second set 6-0.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nadal took the first set 6-4 against Isner and is a break up in the second.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Larsson beats Ivanovic 7-6 (7-3) 0-6 6-2.

:haha:

[Master Splinter]

Nadal struggled to beat Isner 6-4 6-7 6-7 6-2 6-4 :wacko:.

Probably already the biggest shock of the tournament tbh.

Baltacha just beat Stephens 7-5 6-2.

[The Wengerbabies]

Isner :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nadal goes to five sets in his first round match? :lol: I think this could be Djokovic's.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Clijsters beats Yakimova 6-2 6-3.

[Rors]

Isner :bow: The 11 months off did him good...

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed takes the first set against Teixeira. Wozniacki takes the first set in her match too.

[The Wengerbabies]

Federer won 6-3 6-0 6-2

Got 13 games in a row at one stage :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic won too. Though his oppponent retired in the third set when said opponent was already two sets down anyway.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Murray takes the first set 7-6 (7-3) against Bolelli.

[Cripps_orig]

Murray won

Didnt realise Federer was seeded 3rd for this.

Havent really followed Tennis since the Aussie open

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Sharapova getting beaten by somenobody as usual.

[Rors]

Some nobody squeaking through against Garcia

:gp:

Sharaprada was booed off as well :pal:

[Master Splinter]

Yeah, Sharapova eventually won in 3.

Clijsters lost though :doh:. She's been injured and clay's not her best surface, but the collapse was ridiculous.

Also, Baltacha and Watson went out.

Nadal beat Andujar 7-5 6-3 7-6.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Murray won

Didnt realise Federer was seeded 3rd for this.

Havent really followed Tennis since the Aussie open

You've missed Djokovic taking his tennis to a whole new level.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Federer beat Tipsarevic 6-1 6-4 6-3 in 90 minutes. :lol: He was brilliant apparently.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Also, Djokovic vs Del Potro later. :popcorn:

[The Wengerbabies]

Federer beat Tipsarevic 6-1 6-4 6-3 in 90 minutes. :lol: He was brilliant apparently.
He always is. What a man :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Wawrinka knocked out Tsonga and will play Fed next.

Djokovic took the first set against del Potro 6-3.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

del Potro breaks in the second set, Djokovic double faulted. :doh:

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Never knew Wozniaki got knocked out by Daniella huntichova

:rose: The Womens game

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Two break points for Djokovic.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

One break point remaining.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And Deuce, JMdP absolutely nailed those two serves. :lol:

[Master Splinter]

Yeah, Hantuchova destroyed Wozniacki 6-1 6-3.

Wozniacki :haha: worst world number one since Jankovic. She is the Greece of the womens game.

Djokovic v Del Potro on the other hand is sensational. Two brilliant players absolutely slapping the shit out of the ball with no relent :wacko:. Awesome stuff.

It's tied at one set all now (6-3 4-6) and play has been suspended until tomorrow.

Djokovic v Del Potro > > > > > CL Final tbh.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Murray beat Berrer 6-2 6-3 6-2. Nadal won in straight sets, the rest of Djokovic and del Potro is up next.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic breaks and leads 4-2 in the third set.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

del Potro is serving to stay in the third set now.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And del Potro does, Djokovic serving for the third set.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic takes the third set 6-3. :bow:

[Master Splinter]

Murray beat Berrer on one leg :bow:.

Del Potro is not playing as well today.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

del Potro double faults to give Djokovic the break in the fourth set. Djokovic leads 2-1 now.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic breaks again, he leads 4-1 in the fourth set.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Great shot from del Potro there, two break points for him. :d.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It's now 4-2.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic breaks back again and will now serve for the match. JMdP is struggling now quite considerably.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic wins 6-3 3-6 6-3 6-2. 42 wins in a row. :bow:

[The Wengerbabies]

Djok :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

All the top three female seeds are out. :lol: Federer vs Wawrinka is on now.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed takes the first set 6-3. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And takes the second set 6-2.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed wins 6-3 6-2 7-5. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic takes the first set against Gasquet 6-4.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And he took the second set 6-4. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic wins 6-4 6-4 6-2. :bow: Brilliant again.

[The Wengerbabies]

Federer :bow:

Djok :bow:

I haven't been able to watch anywhere near as much of this as I'd like :sulk:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fognini has pulled out of his match with Djokovic so Djokovic is already in to the semi-final. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nadal. :lol:

I think Djokovic has killed him. Granted he is winning.

[The Wengerbabies]

Djokovic :bow:

They're too scared to play him now.

[Master Splinter]

Nadal went through in straight sets. But it's the probably the worst he's played since he was 14.

My tip for the title, Kvitova, went out to Li Na :(. Li Na for the title now :bow:.

[Master Splinter]

Monfils v Ferrer is awesome. Ferrer saved two match points to break back and it's now 6-5 to Monfils in the fifth.

[Master Splinter]

Monfils just had another match point, but Ferrer saved it again. Ferrer :bow:.

6-6 :popcorn:.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Three match points for Monfils.

[Master Splinter]

3 more match points for Monfils.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And Monfils wins.

[Master Splinter]

Monfils win 6-4 2-6 7-5 1-6 8-6!

Great match.

Monfils :bow:

Ferrer :bow:.

[Cripps_orig]

What stage are we at?

[Master Splinter]

What stage are we at?
Fourth round/last 16.

[Cripps_orig]

Just checked the draw.

Should see a Nadal v Murray and Federer v Djokovic semi line up

Nadal v Federer final :bow:

[The Wengerbabies]

Just checked the draw.

Should see a Nadal v Murray and Federer v Djokovic semi line up

Nadal v Federer final :bow:
Nah, it'll be Nadal v Djokovic final tbh.

[Cripps_orig]

Nah.

As good as Djokovics run has been and i know he won the Aussie open during it, the majority have been pre season fixtures against pub teamers.

Federer to win that in 3 id say

[Master Splinter]

Djokovic will beat Federer convincingly if they meet. Federer won't have it easy against Monfils either.

Nadal has not been playing well at all in this tournament. He'll need to improve if he wants to defend his title. If Murray doesn't aggrevate his injury today, a Murray v Nadal semi could be awesome.

[Master Splinter]

Soderling just beat Simon in straight sets. Nadal v Soderling QF :popcorn:.

Murray v Troicki coming up.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Murray is down 3-0 in the first set.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

My apologies, 4-0. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Andrew Castle thinks it's possible Murray is just softening his opponent up. Pretty daring tactic.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

5-0. Troicki is serving to bagel Murray.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Murray avoided the bagel, 5-2 now.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

5-3 now. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Troicki takes the first set 6-4.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Troicki takes the second set 6-4. :lol: I am sure this is all part of the masterplan.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Troicki is a break up in the third set. :rolleyes:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Murray takes the third set 6-3, this one will be resumed tomorrow probably should Murray take the fourth set.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And Murray takes the fourth set 6-2.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Troicki breaks in the fifth set. :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Murray breaks back. :lol: Still serving to stay in the match though.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Now Murray is serving for the match.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Murray wins 4-6 4-6 6-3 6-2 7-5.

[Master Splinter]

Monfils v Federer on now.

Early break for Gael. 2-1. Rog with two double faults :doh:.

[Master Splinter]

Federer took the first set 6-4.

[Master Splinter]

Federer up 3-0 in the second set now.

Monfils :rose:.

[Master Splinter]

Far more explosive than events on Philippe Chatrier at the moment is the news emerging off the court that Austrian player Daniel Koellerer (nicknamed 'Crazy Dani') has been banned for life for attempting to fix matches. Blimey. Koellerer, who was ranked No.55 in 2009, was also fined $100,000 following an investigation by the Tennis Integrity Unit.

:haha:

:doh:.

[The Wengerbabies]

:lol:

[Master Splinter]

Federer wins 6-4 6-3 7-6(7-3). Not dropped a set yet :bow:.

Djokovic v Federer semi-final :popcorn:.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hope it is of an evening. :popcorn:

[Rors]

Hope it is of an evening. :popcorn:

:gp:

[The Wengerbabies]

Federer :bow:

[Master Splinter]

Li Na and Sharapova through to the semis.

Murray v Chela and Nadal v Soderling playing now.

Murray already a break down :doh:.

[isv]

Murray 2 sets up

[Master Splinter]

Murray beat Chela 7-6(7-2) 7-5 6-2.

Nadal beat Soderling 6-4 6-1 7-6(7-3).

Murray v Nadal and Djokovic v Federer.

French Open semi-finals :bow:.

Tennis :bow:.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What idiot thought it was a good plan to have both the Murray match and Nadal match on at the same time today? :lol:

[Master Splinter]

What idiot thought it was a good plan to have both the Murray match and Nadal match on at the same time today? :lol:
Just blame Andrew Castle, I say.

[Cripps_orig]

When are the semi taking place?

Friday? Is Murrays match on the BBC?

[Master Splinter]

Semis are on friday, yes.

Murray's match will probably be shown on BBC1/2 as well as their red button channels and the website. The whole tournament has been available on the red button and website (the big-name matches, anyway).

[The Wengerbabies]

When are the semi taking place?

Friday? Is Murrays match on the BBC?
Pretty sure its Friday and yes Murray is always on the BBC.

[The Wengerbabies]

Semis are on friday, yes.

Murray's match will probably be shown on BBC1/2 as well as their red button channels and the website. The whole tournament has been available on the red button and website (the big-name matches, anyway).
Disgusting how the BBC treat the French Open, they'd rather show Bargain Hunt and Homes Under the Hammer ffs.

Eurosport :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Li Na took the first set 6-4 against Sharapova. :bow: Granted Sharapova is a break up in the second set.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Murray vs Nadal is on first tomorrow at about 1pm. Good stuff.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It's 4-4 now in the second set. Li Na. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And Li Na wins 6-4 7-5. :lol:

[Master Splinter]

Li Na :bow:.

Schiavone won the first set against Bartoli 6-3. Currently 2-2 in the second.

[LDG]

Murray vs Nadal is on first tomorrow at about 1pm. Good stuff.

Come on Nadal!!

Fuckin scots.

[Master Splinter]

Murray vs Nadal is on first tomorrow at about 1pm. Good stuff.
French Open scheduling is :wacko:. Murray and Nadal played their QFs a day after, yet play first. They did the same with Sharapova and Li Na today. Djokovic getting his winter break in early.

[Master Splinter]

Schiavone beats Bartoli 6-3 6-3.

I hope Li Na destroys her.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Should be a good final and I don't say that often for the Women's matches.

[Cripps_orig]

Nadal won the first set 6-4

3 breaks in that set. Nadal got 2 of them

Murray leads 1-0 on serve in the 2nd but has 2 break points

[Cripps_orig]

Not any more.

Deuce

[Cripps_orig]

Nadal breaks

3-2

[Cripps_orig]

Murray breaks back

3-3

Nadal double faulted at break point

[Cripps_orig]

This commentator on Eurosport is really pissing me off.

The amount of times he has called a shot from Murray which has gone out a "good miss"

I mean wtf?

Id watch on BBC but they are showing the racing for some reason

[Cripps_orig]

Nadal breaks

4-3

[The Wengerbabies]

This commentator on Eurosport is really pissing me off.

Watch on BBC red button, they're not switching to racing.

[Cripps_orig]

Murray breaks back :lol:

4-4

Thats 4 in a row

[Cripps_orig]

Murrays drop shots :doh:

[Cripps_orig]

Nadal breaks and will serve for the set at 6-5

Murrays drop shot at 40-15 up in that game :doh:

All he had to do was hit it down the line

[Syn]

Fuck sake not again

[Syn]

I can't call it bottling because Nadal is so clearly the better player.

[Cripps_orig]

Nadal wins the 2nd set 7-5

Expect Nadal to win the 3rd rather easily cos Murrays gone mentally

[Cripps_orig]

Nadal breaks

1-0

[The Wengerbabies]

Murray :lol:

Come on Rafa.

[Syn]

Murray :lol:

Come on Rafa.

When I move back to Cambridge in a couple of months I'm going to hunt you down and piss on your face while you're asleep.

[The Wengerbabies]

When I move back to Cambridge in a couple of months I'm going to hunt you down and piss on your face while you're asleep.
I have no response to this.

:bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Two break points for Fed. :popcorn:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

One remaining.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Deuce.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Adv. Federer.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed breaks and leads 3-1 in the second set. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Federer's serving has been awesome.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Two more break points for Fed. :o

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Deuce.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Adv. Fed.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic eventually holds, still 4-2 down though.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic is serving to stay in the second set.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Three set points for Fed, jesus wept.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Two remaining.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

One remaining.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Adv. Fed.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And again, adv. Fed.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Again Djokovic eventually holds, Fed is serving for the second set.

[Master Splinter]

Maybe Djokovic's extended break didn't help after all.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Break point for Djokovic.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Deuce.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed takes the second set 6-3. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Federer is back.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic breaks and leads 2-0 in the third set. :popcorn:

And Fed does, Djokovic serving for the third set.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And Djokovic takes the third set 6-3.

:popcorn:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fucking hell Federer.

:bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It's 4-4 in the fourth, Federer to serve.

[Rors]

All-nighter :pray:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Second serve Ace from Fed. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Two shockers from both players. Deuce. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Adv. Djokovic from a double fault.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Deuce.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

This is horrible tennis at the moment.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Deuce. God knows what has happened to them.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Stunning from Djokovic, Adv. Djokovic.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic breaks and will serve for the fourth set.

[Rors]

They both went to absolute pieces in that one...

[McNamara That Ghost...]

The Bogdanovich School of Shitness. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Three break points for Federer, bloody hell.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Two remaining.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

One remaining. :lol:

[Rors]

The Bogdanovich School of Shitness. :bow:

I think he'd take being mentioned in any capacity if it means being related to a Grand Slam semi-final... :lol:

[Rors]

Fed :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Well that's just ridiculous. Federer breaks back, it's 5-5.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djokovic. :blink:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Adv. Djokovic. :bow:

[Rors]

This is lunacy.

Ah, Deuce!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

A second serve beamer from Fed. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Adv. Djokovic again.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Deuce again. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed holds, eventually. Djokovic is serving to stay in the match.

[Rors]

Now Castle's bringing up Super Saturday. :doh:

[Rors]

"Nadal had just a little too much for Andy Murray" - Castle doing his best to make it sound like it ended 40-38 in the fifth....

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Castle also made reference to the conditions being different in this match to Nadal and Murray's. The implication being that didn't help Murray. :rolleyes:

[Rors]

Castle also made reference to the conditions being different in this match to Nadal and Murray's. The implication being that didn't help Murray. :rolleyes:

Forgetting that Nadal was also having to serve into a gale every few games...

[McNamara That Ghost...]

:lol: Exactly.

Djokovic holds, it's tie-break time.

[Rors]

:popcorn:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed with the mini-break, leads 2-0, Djokovic with one serve left.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

2-2.

[Rors]

Fed puts one just long, back on serve 2-2

[McNamara That Ghost...]

3-2 Federer leads, Djokovic to serve.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

4-3 Federer with the minibreak again and to serve.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Three match points for Fed!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fed wins 7-6 (7-5) 6-3 3-6 7-6 (7-5)!

What a match.

Federer. :bow: Djokovic. :bow: He'll become No.1 soon no doubt.

[Rors]

And he takes it with an ace! :bow:

The streak is over..

[McNamara That Ghost...]

43-1...

[Özim]

Federer immense in the first 2 sets, played pretty well best I've seen for a long time.....he wasn't doing many of those weak sliced backhands.

Djokovic was a bit disappointing today, looked vulnerable on his serve and made a lot of errors.

Well done Federer, Nadal isn't at his best so if he plays like this he had an outside chance on Sunday.

[The Wengerbabies]

Fucking ridiculous. Just before the match I get a power cut, and its only just come back on. Worse still my phone needed charging so couldn't keep up to date with that.

I'm guessing Federer won by the post above.

Federer :bow:

The best there is, the best there has ever been, the best there ever will be.

[Cripps_orig]

Expected Fed to win

Only surprise is is that it went to a 4th set.

Final we all wanted to see.

Nadal v Federer :bow:

[Master Splinter]

Federer :bow:

Djokovic :bow:

Bogdanovic :bow:.

Also, come on Li Na!!

[Rors]

Bogdanovic :bow:



:gp: I hope the All-England Club have got their wildcard sorted out for The Great One again this year.. Court 19 will never see his like again.

[Master Splinter]

I hope the All-England Club have got their wildcard sorted out for The Great One again this year.. Court 19 will never see his like again.
I think Arvind Parmar deserves one too.

And Jamie Delgado.

[Master Splinter]

Li Na has broken and is leading 4-2 in the first set.

Li Na :bow:.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Schiavone is serving to stay in the first set.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And she does. Li Na serving for the first set.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And Li Na takes the first set 6-4. :bow:

[Master Splinter]

Li Na :bow:.

Safin is there. Crazy bastard :bow:.

[Master Splinter]

Li Na breaks in the first game of the second set :bow:.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Great chance for Li Na there to make it 4-1.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Schiavone breaks back, it's 4-4 in the second set. :popcorn:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Li Na is serving to stay in the second set.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It's tie-break time in the second set.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Li Na is 3-0 up, Schiavone to serve.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

4-0. :o

[McNamara That Ghost...]

5-0. Li Na can serve it out here.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Six Championship points. :blink:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Li Na wins 6-4 7-6 (7-0)! :bow:

[Syn]

Well done that Chinawoman.

[Master Splinter]

[Toronto Gooner]

A quick tip of the hat to Daniel Nestor who won the Men's Doubles title with Max Mirnyi. That makes 9 grand slam doubles titles he has won, as well as an Olympic Gold medal in 2000. I note this only because he is a member of my tennis/squash club.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Congrats to him! And his partner of course.

BBC's programme starts at 2 on BBC2 today. :popcorn:

[Toronto Gooner]

I hope today's final is a classic rather than a blow-out.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

For it to be classic it'll require Nadal not to be at his best, unless Federer takes it to a whole new level I suppose!

[The Wengerbabies]
