Wimbledon 2013

Fantastic semi-final in progress between Djokovic and Del Potro. Final set just starting. Three tie-breaks and Del Potro won the other 6-4.

Unbelievable game.

If tennis was ever better than it is now, it must have been pretty special. So many five-set blockbusters between great players.

Fascinating stuff alright. Del Potro looks out on his feet but still comes up with the big points.

[Hardy]

Sorry - just for accuracy, it was two tie breaks. Del Potro's score:

5-7, 6-4, 6-7, 7-6. On serve in the fifth 2-2.

Have to agree. I well remember Borg, McEnroe, Connors, Nastase et al and although I'm not a tennis fan I think that I'm looking back at that period through tinted glasses. Today's big players are just phenomenal athletes with skill levels I've never seen before.

Del Potro had lost the last 4 times he has went to 5 sets.

[Count 10]

Make that 5

[All of a Sludden]

That was phenomenal. Credit to both players.

Djoko' must be pound-for-pound the best value for money sportsperson on the planet. How many 5-set epic matches has he been involved in at this stage? Surely Del Potro is good (and young) enough to win Wimbledon sometime.

No balls...

The K Tape the polish lad has on his right arm is ridiculous.   Pointless

[Hardy]

[Radda bout yeee]

Th wheels are coming off this polish wagon!!!
