I P Knightley Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Ana Ivanovic looking and playing fantastic today! I'm just looking at the scores on the Slamtracker (another couple of breaks) and beside each player there's a measure of 'positive sentiment'. Anyone know what that is and how it's arrived at? If it comes from viewers voting with a tick, I'd like to give Ivanovic one. Finally, a hold. Azarenka taking a lead in set two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

:shitwine: Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 It's a shame that nobody wants to see multi-hour, 5 set tennis matches, as Youzhny and Hewitt are into a decider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergio Garcia Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 After a slow first 2 sets this match between Hewitt and Youzhny has turned into a cracker, swinging back and forth and anybodys game at the minute. Hewitt bleeding a little after a fall so trainer delaying match now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I P Knightley Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Hewitt was leading 2 sets to 1 and 4-1 in the fourth but has been pegged back to 2 sets all. Seems these 32-year-olds ain't all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redm Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 How did it go? I saw the first few games of the first set but then flaked out. Saw the score, presume he did his third set thing in the first set instead? And was Djokovic as impressive as that scoreline suggests? Blinkin heck.

Boaby Ewing Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 He won, but he wasn't particularly convincing. Looked more like the Murray of 2010/2011 than the last two years. The shots were just that little bit further away from the corners and the baseline than they normally are. He came through it, and still played some amazing shots, but I fear for him in the next three games. Wawrinka is his bogey man and looks to be in great form, Djokovic looks close to his imperial best, and everyone knows how well Nadal is playing. He needs to find something more, otherwise it looks like the post-Wimbledon hangover hasn't quite lifted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Romanov Saviour of HMFC Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 There was a couple of bad line calls he was seething about and that interrupted his game. He can and will lift it for the top players. However, I just can't see how him or djokovic can come through a match v each other considering how demanding they usually are, and then beat the glorious rafa who is on a mission.

Did they not say earlier on that he has lost from 2 sets up 5 times? The record is 6 held by a few unfortunate others. Not a group he'd be wanting to join.

I P Knightley Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 USopen.org has an "instant highlight" from the second set where Gasquet puts so much backspin on a drop shot it hits the tape trying to get back to his own side of the net. Worth a watch. Gasquet's one of my favourite players from the last few years; hope he comes through this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Sausage Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Thought Gasquet played some wonderful tennis in the first two sets, Ferrer poor. Thought the game was over at 2-2 but shows what I know! Some 'lucky' shots at key moments for the Frenchman but deserved nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergio Garcia Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Fair play to Gasquet some of his tennis in the 5th was outstanding, thought he was going to do his usual and chuck it as Ferrer wore him down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
