Joey, I saw a replay of that 5th set. DJokabitch was able to win those points, because Federer was timid on his return of Djoka's 2nd serve. I don't know why. It's just a matchup that Federer doesn't like. I think he lost to him in the semis of the Australian Open in 2009, too. Fed doesn't really like to play guys that have the powerful forehand that he also has. Djoka did hit some nice forehands on those points, but it probably shouldn't of gotten that far( Federer should of attacked those 2nd serves better.)

There are 2 main types of Narcissists. One is like Kanye West (obvious type,) and the other is like Roger (more quiet, but can't deal well with not getting his way..cries when Nadal beats him etc.) Look at that silly over-the-top monogram design on the baseball cap of Federer's Dad. I mean, come on. He's a shy-appearing Narcissist. The one thing Narcissists all demand is exclusivity. When someone has a game that's an inconsistent version of Roger's own game, then, he can really be bothered by it. He does not like it when someone's playing like him. He hates that. When Djokovic and (years ago) Safin play their best, Roger gets very bothered. When someone can hit a forehand that dives away from an opponent, it really bugs Fed. I know the 2nd match point that Djoka saved was won that way. Roger moves his body better than this guy. That's why Djoka was more tired. Roger shouldn't be losing to him. He's better, but he is mentally not as tough as people think. If he doesn't have overwhelming force (the dominant weapon on the court,) he pouts, and/or chokes a bit. You notice how he has just an o.k. looking wife? He could easily have a model-type, but he probably gets too easily annoyed by most of them. I've seen them pick some 5's n' 6's when they could have a 9 or a 10. I think they're looking for a certain personality type (one that will take their shyt, and almost never criticize them.) I think they're looking for someone who's co-dependent.

That was a game effort, but Nadal is extra-special. He deserves his career slam. I don't know how he's added power to his serve, but great competitors find a way. Djocabitch is a really good competitor. He's just not quite the athlete that Nadal and Federer are. To be honest, he knows it. When he smiles out there, it's because he knows he's can't do what he just saw done to him.

If he stays healthy he'll pass Federer easily. He's got at least 4 more FO's.

Incredible match so far. It's a shame they don't have lights. The scheduling is ridiculous. They should know that Nadal matches take forever.

Lot of guts shown by Djokovic today after starting so poorly, but Federer needed that match more than he did.

I agree with this by the way. You can't start the women's semis at the same time as the men's semis.

This is hands down the greatest era in tennis. I was ready to jump through the f.ucking television about 50 times during that match.

Those guys can't be human.
