How in the name of all that is holy? Nadal just never ever gives up

 

[Spurrific]

Federer is everything that is good about sport in one man. An absolute icon, and imo, the best athlete of all time.

Brilliant tennis. Privileged to have watched these guys.

I'd be boasting for weeks about one shot that they were churning out ten times a rally!

And much as I don't want to disrespect Djokovic, who is a hell of a player ... Come on Rog!

Absolutely can't wait for Sunday. Like you say it feels like a massive privilege to be able to see these players playing against each other at such a level and on such a stage. I think I'd be blown away if I was to watch them in person.

Makes me want to get back into playing tennis so much

I am a big fan of Halep - not sure why

 

[Sandros Shiny Head]

Can't stand Serena, every point she loses she stands there slumped shoulders like there's some kind of conspiracy against her

 

[McFlash]

Halep's playing some fantastic shots.

Always been a big fan of hers, plays with such heart and passion. Can see that she gives everything when on court and she’s putting in one hell of a performance out there at the moment

She is a little terrier and her movement is really good

You can argue that Serena needs some erm... halep here...

We need a ‘groan’ rating for that one

56min final

 

[Sandros Shiny Head]

You’d think Serena lost to a nobody listening to these creeps on BBC. Well done Simona

What's stopping you?

Crazy when you think what Novak and Roger will have to go through tomorrow to earn the same money

 

[McFlash]

Loving this doubles match. A French bloke got hit by the ball near the eye earlier, in what looked like a painful way. He just got hit near the neck, followed by the next ball to the knackers!
It's a fucking dangerous game this tennis lark.

 

[hughy]

Come on Roger.

He is the greatest for me. I don't think that'll change even if Novak beats his final total of grand slams.

I look forward to being able to look back on this era in 30-40 years time remembering fondly that I went through my teens and twenties as a tennis fan watching 3 of the greatest players ever.

1st set already longer than that

 

[spurs mental]

Jesus Djokovic is such a **** even to look at.

 

[spurs mental]

Starting to moan every time something doesn't go his way too. Fuck off you wanker and play the game.

And stop bouncing the ball 77 time before each serve as well.

 

[spurs mental]

Fuck yes. Come on Roger
