Its not like he was a great player-- he was just a qualifier. He gets a ton of publicity' date=' he'll probably get a big endorsement deal from Nike, and it will likely revitalize his mediocre career. Plus, he has a place in history. I really don't see it as a loss.[/quote']

 

Agreed. He wasn't a blip on the tennis radar before this match. Look at what losing to Tiger Woods did for Rocco Mediate. And I don't even watch golf.

Didn't Isner lose in the shortest game of the tournament today? That figures.

 

do you blame him?

 

they guy had nothing left .

he was so sore today he lost over 10MPH on his serve .

Nadal went 5 sets' date=' Feds and Nadal have had some tough matches so far[/quote']

 

Nadal is a cheater , hope he loses next round

he faked an injury when he was down 2 sets to 1 so he could get a rest and it totaly dissrupted his opponants timing after that . and also he was getting illegal coaching from his uncle again .

Yeah , that was shocking but he is getting up there in age...

I also beleive he was playing injured , if you watch closely his matches at Wimby his upper leg was wrapped in tape and I also beleive he had a bad back as his serve wasent there today

 

I still think he has 2-3 slams left in him but that's about it

I dont think he'll ever regain the # 1 seed again either to break Pete's 286 week at number 1

 

kinda sucks as he's sitting at 285

I don't think we will be seeing Federer winning to many more slams, I really think he could be done as a dominant player on the tour. I just hope Nadal doesn't win, I don't like that guy.

My best friend is a huge Federer fan and got me into tennis. That first set today was brutal. Tiebreaker for 2nd set right now.

 

My mom's a big Federer fan too. I've always favored Nadal. He just took the 2nd set. Great match so far!

He'll regret the drop shot on set point for awhile ... especially considering it's a shot that hasn't been working for him. You can't bring anything less than your A game if you want to beat Rafa at the French, and Federer just didn't today.

Federer's drop shots are getting annoying

 

Such a great weapon when he can land them, especially against Nadal who often pushes himself back well behind the baseline.

That's true. Just not used to seeing him use so many. Federer is hanging in there and looks very strong right now.
