Roger takes d 2nd set as well, this a little easier than the first.
its now 7-6, 6-4 to Roger.
Re: US Open 2008 by bagoma(f): 10:04pm On Sep 04, 2008
this Muller guy will go down but he's not going down meekly.
i like his confidence and his big serves.
and the fact that he is not awed and nervous of Federer and is not making himself a walkover.

GO RAFA
Re: US Open 2008 by Nobody: 1:40pm On Sep 05, 2008
Rafa and Murray . . . tough match there guys. Murray is wont do a Mardy Fish and choke. Rafa's got to come out smoking from game 1.

Nadal is more mentally stable than Murray, so I'll go for Rafa.

I'm hoping Federer goes past Djokovic because should the Djoker beat Fed and win the title, he'll overtake Federer as the new world number two. I pray that doesn't happen.

The ease with which Novak beat Andy in the first two sets must be very dissappointing to Roddicks camp . . . even after skipping the Olympics and other warm-ups so he could rest and be ready . . . very dissapointing. I expected a much more competitive match. Roddick's window is closing very very fast - it's too bad he's playing in the Era of Federer/Nadal else he'd have 5-6 majors . . . same as Mickelson, Singh, Garcia and others playing in the Tiger Woods Era.

6-2, 6-3, 3-6, 7-6

hahhhhh Djokovic/Federer for the semis
My popcorn chin chin is ready n waiting - it will be a great match.
Re: US Open 2008 by Nobody: 3:56pm On Sep 05, 2008
Well i wont bet on federer lossing to djokovic,because i think federer has had a rethink and he has finally decided to fight for this one,so all you federer haters and nadal fans beware our man {federer }is going to take this one, on the semi final i want federer to be very carefull of that djoker of a guy,cos that guy likes to play mind games like he did with robredo before finally finishing the innocent spaniad,but i am sure federer has this one already, Big Ups federer, We luv you. cheesy cool winkr

I nearly fell asleep by the end of the second set. It was almost like a teacher schooling his pupil, very disappointing. Roddick's window is now firmly closed . . . its time he realised a big serve alone isnt going to cut it anymore.
Even if Djoko, Fed and Nadal were to retire this night, Roddick wont win anything. He had chances at 2 tournaments without the big guys during this summer, he won none.

Re: US Open 2008 by rasputinn(m): 8:26am On Sep 06, 2008
Just thinking

Federer beat Djokovic in the finals of last year

Djoko beat Federer @ the Australian opens this year

So which of 'em is coming to pllay against RAFA in the final
Re: US Open 2008 by iice(f): 11:04am On Sep 06, 2008

Jankovic is playing some good tennis at the moment and i want an upset to be honest!
Re: US Open 2008 by FOD(m): 4:06pm On Sep 06, 2008
The first SF match involving Federer and Djokovic is about to start.
Re: US Open 2008 by iice(f): 4:09pm On Sep 06, 2008
Starting!! Go fed!!
Re: US Open 2008 by Nobody: 4:11pm On Sep 06, 2008
for once i'm actually rooting for the Fed. Wouldnt mind if he won this title with Rafa runners up. The Fed deserves to beat Sampras' record.
Re: US Open 2008 by Nobody: 4:12pm On Sep 06, 2008

Re: US Open 2008 by FOD(m): 4:35pm On Sep 06, 2008
Thank God for those first serves. Fed takes the first set 6 - 3.
Re: US Open 2008 by Nobody: 4:37pm On Sep 06, 2008
First set is finished, Federer wins 6-3,and i will like this to be termed the set of Serves, Anyway i see that snake{djukovic}trying to crawl back into the game, But no chance for that, Even if chance dey no space, cheesy grin
Re: US Open 2008 by FOD(m): 4:46pm On Sep 06, 2008
The first serves are disappearing. Unforced errors creeping in. Three deuces in the second game of the second set. Finally, he holds. It's one game apiece.
Re: US Open 2008 by iice(f): 4:53pm On Sep 06, 2008
hahhh 3-1 now in favor of novak
Re: US Open 2008 by FOD(m): 5:04pm On Sep 06, 2008
Federer breaks back!. Though, the Djoker still leads 4-3 in the second set.
