Half an hour to go, but coverage has already started on BBC1.

(Sue Barker just said, "he's been on the receiving end of Roger Federer's barrage." I think I like this woman.)

Date: 2009-07-05 02:14 pm (UTC)It is the dream of everyone who has ever seen a tennis racket to be at the receiving end of Roger Federer's barrage. True fact.

Date: 2009-07-05 02:27 pm (UTC)I know it's not the same without Rafa and maybe some little voice at the back of your mind is saying the result won't count. But that's not what it will be saying in an hour's time, if you've gone down (in straight sets) to Andy Roddick!

Date: 2009-07-05 05:38 pm (UTC)Man, I feel so sorry for Roddick. ;;
no subject
Date: 2009-07-05 05:39 pm (UTC)Me too. He's done so well. ;; But he let himself down in the second set and has paid for it, I think.

Date: 2009-07-05 06:05 pm (UTC)And, yeah, Roddick bottled it in the second. But I have to admit, by the end, I was quietly rooting for him because he'd tried so damn hard.
no subject
Date: 2009-07-05 06:13 pm (UTC)Both of them tried really hard, I think Roddick showed it more, that's all. It got to the point that like, any Nadal vs Federer match, I was happy if either of them won. They both deserved it.
