Wimbledon Day 9

First topic message reminder :

Well let us draw breath from yesterday's results!

What a day of play we have...And I will be at work missing it all! Bollox!

We have on CC

Halep v Lisicki

Murray v Dimitrov

Federer v Wawrinka

On C1

Bouchard v Kerber

Djokovic v Cilic

Raonic v Kyrgios

Who will stand victorious come Sunday?

He's hitting BH winners for fun.

If Stan Wawrinka beats Roger Federer today he'll have beaten the 'top 4' in the space of 4 majors

USO - Murray
AO - Djokovic and Nadal(only man to ever do that)
W - potential Federer.

Looks good on the old CV

Did he break Fed already? whats the score line?

emancipator wrote:Stan is on FIRE!

Absolutely. Federer has no answer. He has to hang and hope to mess him up.

what a day this is turning out to be

Oh cilic... you numpty

4-1 stan

4-1 Wawrinka-Federer*

Oh my goodness Cilic losses serve to start the 4th.

cilic don't waste your hardwork please focus.

Federer looking very vulnerable in these early exchanges with Wawrinka

That is a horrid gauntlet

This is the first time i've seen Fed play this year - and he looks old.

Granted, Stan has come out firing.

bogbrush wrote:All top 4 going before the semis?

Wow.

That would certainly arouse my interest!

Getting blown away by Stan (or a young one) may tell him it's time.

Cilic 0-2 in the 4th set   

Wake up Fed

Wake up Cilic

Stan is a really good mover. Fast and defends really well.

He is stubborn to believe he still has 1 more left in him right.

Remember how easily Fed used to handle the big hitters?

The movement to get in place to play offensively is no longer there. Neither is the speed required to defend well.

Oh dear the double break, this is going 5

Ah, Cilic

Stan slapping Feds @ss.

He is going to be 33 in a months time, so its obvious.

Hes not that old really, the pop and the spring isnt there like it was in hi pomp, thats the problem

Cilic throwing another match away from a winning position.

No surprise there!

Djoko is 4-0 on the 4th set, Cilic still haven't recovered from the 3rd set hangover.

Least Stan is giving me some hope.

Cilic doing a Goran, win a set then relax next one. The serve it the next one.

Nice quick set for Wawrinka.

Stan is really looking good.

If he can keep this up then, in my book, he's the favourite for the title.

Cilic atleast looks to avoid bagel in 4th set.

Fed asleep. He is afraid he can win another W. His mind is on the final.

He is busy feeding practice balls to Stan's FH and BH.

If not Roger, I'd also love Stan to bag his second major. He doesn't seem to get the credit he deserves for being world #3 and AO champion.

Luthi in Federer's box?

Anyone but Novak now

Hahahah. I dont mind Stan winning, but Feds route has opened for 8th.

Has Fed actually won a baseline exchange yet?

Fed can barely hold the racket from Stans shots.

Wake up old man.

My friend got a ticket for men's semifinal day and was bragging to see big 4, I am so happy now he may not even see 1 in action.

When he's on, he looks every bit a top top player.

Fed is rolling back his days, I mean his ball boy days.   

0-30 for Federer, will he make it?

Cilic you not coming back without the joker scalp, now wake up bomb your serves and finish it quick.

What the hell happened to the Federer FH?

It used to be the most deadly shot on tour and now it's more like a rallying stroke at best.

why everybody silent now, whats the update?

Oh Fed disaster. Only serve keeping Fed.

Cilic from hero to zero in 5 minutes of time.   

Cilic forgot how to play Tennis now.

Cilic come on, dont be scared
