Tennis 2017

The GOAT has done it.

[Buzzo]

He is looking to be back to his best, striking the ball sweetly, and fit enough for a 5 set semi final.

Taking that fifth set also tells you exactly where his temperament is right now.

[RichC]

Federer was excellent in parts, he let Stan back in and I'm not sure if someone like Murray, Nadal or Djokovic would have let him back in but it was a very good win from him.

Hoping Nadal get's to the final, seeing those two go at it again would be great especially in a Slam final

[RichC]

Nadal vs Fed final. Nadal with a chance to do the double career slam, don't think its been done in the modern era and Federer has the chance to extend his stupid amount of slam titles.

Hopefully be a classic

[RichC]

Serena Williams beats her sister in the women's final; a classic it was not. Dreadful final

[Buzzo]

I think the Williams finals always are. Ultimately they can't bring the same competitive edge to the match up against each other.

That is Serena past Steffi Graf now in her hunt for GOAT, only Margaret Court ahead of her.

[Shaggy]

This is absolutely mental

[Fredo]

Greatest player of all time. Incredible.

[Chris]

Comfortable for the GOAT!!

[labourRed]

Some of those points were jaw-dropping. A privilege to be able to see two greats like that in the same era.

[Buzzo]

Comfortable for the GOAT!!

A great win, but hardly comfortable. Superb effort from Nadal also.

[Buzzo]

FAO Lecter.

After your post last year, I've changed my grip. It makes a massive difference.

I was holding the racquet about 1.5cm to far up, moving my grip slightly to the bottom gives me hopefully more flexibility and less tennis elbow.

I had another lesson yesterday

[Buzzo]

Anyone see the end of the Davis Cup match today?

...I've never seen that before!

[RichC]

Silly boy but complete accident. Anyone remember Tiger Tim getting DQ'd at Wimbledon for hitting a ball girl?
