He won't escape in the semi-finals with that kind of performance.

I'd kind of agree but Rainic is so limited Fed might just cut him up. It's the final that he'd be in trouble.

Don't know but if I were Federer I wouldn't having been hugging him after the match.  Smile Polite handshake and very quick and thorough wash of hands was in order.

Kyrgios has imploded in this second set.

Raonic motoring in this second set. 5-2 and serving for the second set.

He's had an immense tournament, there's older players who'd be laying this off as being drained.

Don't forget, he hasn't got an egg chamber yet.

We knew well Raonic would be tougher for him coz he gives no rhythm and could even serve better than himself. Will be a very valuable learning lesson for Krygious.

No, please. Not Raonic. Dimitrov sure, but not Raonic, a man unburdened by any charisma whatsoever.

Well the forum has cried out for new blood and now there is a chance.

Maybe Dimi and Milli could consult with Nicky for some wise words chin

He has the chance for sure.

Part of me does want me for him to put further distance between himself and Nadal. But the lure of new blood is too much for me.

Federer has two tough matches ahead.

I also feel Wawrinka was hard done by the W schedulers having to play three days in a row. At least Federer will get a break.

What is the weather forecast for the Final?

Whats this Milo has no charisma?

He is ice cold, well behaved, no fisting, shouting, MTOs, body wallpapers or crappy hair do.

Thats how a tennis player should be, clean. As for being a little more lovable, will take some time and we seen all how cheap Djoko has made the me too, me too attraction, acting and dying for attention.

I'll have ice cold before faking stuff for attention.

Watching this Murray/Dimitrov encounter is pushing my limits. Andy can't hit cross court and Dimitrov is just playing up and down of the middle of the court.

Glad I am not paying money for this!
