Fantastic stuff from him, magic shots. luzkoz 05-31-2008, 05:58 PM Apart from the choking late in the third set, it was a good match from Roger, liked it :) Monteque 05-31-2008, 05:59 PM It's not boring at least because this year Fed isnt in Jesus mode often in his games Blue Heart24 05-31-2008, 06:00 PM Ancic played like shit.:rolleyes::(:o l_mac 05-31-2008, 06:00 PM :zzz: :zzz: :zzz: juninhOH 05-31-2008, 06:01 PM good match by Federer.

He wins the match of the "MonoMen". NYCtennisfan 05-31-2008, 06:02 PM Ancic's poor movement means he's doomed against Fed on clay. Fed played with controlled aggression and moved Ancic around the court every which way he wanted. His serve had a lot of zip, his BH was steadier today than the first two rounds and also had more depth, and his movement was fantastic. Slasher 05-31-2008, 06:02 PM I thought it was decent that Ancic brought his own lube to the match. Fedexex 05-31-2008, 06:02 PM welldone:) HarryMan 05-31-2008, 06:02 PM Some absolute ridiculous shots from Federer today, he played a perfect match and Ancic just didn't have any answer to the Federer variety. Only Nadal can stop him over here, the rest dont stand a chance against him. groundstroke 05-31-2008, 06:02 PM Well, that was no monofed outthere tonight. Fantastic stuff from him, magic shots. His forehand was much improved. The backhand had more variety and a great use of slice but it's still patchy. Clara Bow 05-31-2008, 06:02 PM Good play by Roger, some of his better stuff this year. habibko 05-31-2008, 06:02 PM I guess the dancing cows will be all over rf.com :lol: Anyhow, good performance from Fed.

I'm sure Roger was furious when he saw that Ferrer and Davydenko were in his half and not Djokovic. Not only has Nadal had a harder draw until now (both were fairly easy but Nadal had a tricky R1 against one of the most in-form players in tennis), Nadal has the harder 4th round, the harder QF (if Almagro comes through as he should), and the harder SF without question (if it's Djokovic) no matter what nonsense you come out with.

He had some nice variety as well - dropshots were beautiful, even dazzling at times. And the serve is continuing to be great.

You are talking nonsense dude. Querrey beats that brazilian chump that nadal played in the 1st round. Montanes beats that frenchie nadal played in the 2nd. Ancic beats nieminen. niemenen has hardly won this year. I'll give you the 4th round and QF. I think ferrer beats djoke on clay especially RG. dark_ambient 05-31-2008, 06:14 PM I thought Fedex was at 5% every second of the match and then raised it up to 10% in the third set. You cannot be serious about this Ancic guy. I can't quite understand how he got here in the first place. But hey another day another job to do by all the means possible. Fedex was sweating more because of those rain drops. Should be another thriller fight against Benneteau. :bolt: dam0dred 05-31-2008, 06:15 PM That was a beauty. Well done.

I know Ancic had some problems but all the Rafatards are claiming that Fedex has an easy draw. And matches like this one proves them right. :eek: croat123 05-31-2008, 06:24 PM fed played a great match...bad draw for comeback mario :( get ready for grass now!! Manon 05-31-2008, 06:24 PM Ancic has just recovered from some illnesses. He was the last man to defeat Federer on grass. Back injury and the worst kind of mononucleosis (year and a half almost). Nevertheless Fed was good as he needed to be. HeretiC 05-31-2008, 06:25 PM You cannot be serious about this Ancic guy. I can't quite understand how he got here in the first place. Started folowing tennis few months ago, right ? RagingLamb 05-31-2008, 06:29 PM roger played some brilliant shots, but at the same time Ancic played very poorly. the movement was awful from mario.

Why's that? Federer's win was without a doubt before the match but do not dismiss opponent. Mario can do way better (even on clay) but it doesn't happened.

Yeah Federer's had a "tougher" first three rounds but both won each of their three matches very easily so how is that significant in the least :confused:. Neither will be seriously threatened before the semis so that's really the only point at which the draw matters. And Djokovic is tougher than Ferrer. We all know this, so don't pretend otherwise. dark_ambient 05-31-2008, 06:35 PM Started folowing tennis few months ago, right ?Exactly. You must have a crystal ball or something or guessing in coffee cups. Impressive nevertheless! :worship: I have never seen so much dead on accuracy since Robbie Fowler was hitting cocaine and goals at the same time. ;) Magus13 05-31-2008, 06:37 PM What possible third round opponent should either Fed, Nadal or Joke struggle with. Fed played really well and his movemnt was excellent. When he plays like that he's going to win most of the time. One week into the tournament and still bitching about the draw. Pathetic.

But Nadal's R1-R3 is laughable. Even if Bellucci is as tough as Montanes, Querrey and Ancic are stronger opponents than anybody Rafa has faced yet. How can you even compare them to Devilder and current Nieminen? *** On the match, Fed looked pretty good. He was moving well and had some aggressive returns. He showed some nice variety off the FH (which led to Ancic looking lost) and also incorporated the drop shot effectively without overuse. Comprehensive. And to dark ambient, Ancic made Q at RG in '06. Check back at the beginning of '09 and see where he is. Foxy 05-31-2008, 06:53 PM Nadal has had an easier draw than fed so far.

I thought everyone agreed Fed had a cakewalk draw. And the draw perfectly opened for him now. The better players, players who were on a roll last few tournaments, who could pose more problems crashed out - Wawrinka, Davydenko.

Are these guys who played against Ego King, lefty? dark_ambient 05-31-2008, 07:06 PM And to dark ambient, Ancic made Q at RG in '06. Check back at the beginning of '09 and see where he is.I know Ancic's results since i'm a big fan of Federer's. Ancic was in form then very difficult to play with big service difficult to read gave Fedex some trouble but never in doubt that one. ;) Today was a hilarious match. Not only did he not stand a chance but it was tougher to watch. His movement was poor (due to his comeback from injury we all get it) and Federer was not even trying to play some decent stuff. He was beating him with his famous crap tennis aka not breaking a sweat tennis that gets the job done. I'm not pleased with that tennis. I want to see the magic stuff because his movements on a tennis court are so beautiful and natural. His shot making is like art to me. But when he plays crap and still wins where's the pleasant part there? He was hitting winners you'll say. Yeah very tough to do that against this Ancic. Third set was better but still no challenge at all. KitinovRules 05-31-2008, 07:13 PM He beat sick Djoko on clay as Djoko beat sick Fed at AO. Period.

Ferrer should first reach the semi and NO he is not tougher than Djoko. Not even close. Sorry. He said "so far," which is clearly the case. And whoever Fed could have faced, Gonzalez is potentially worse than Almagro. That leaves Rafa's R4 and S as clearly harder. Yes, "everyone" agrees that Fed has a cakewalk, drawing #40, big server, and MC quarter-finalist in the first round. Maybe you should think a little more. He beat sick Djoko on clay as Djoko beat sick Fed at AO. Period. :spit: Period. Let me try your memory. How many QF at Grand Slams does Nieminen have? Ancic? Montanes? Are these guys who played against Ego King, lefty? What are you talking about? Ancic made Wimbledon semis (farther than any showing by Nieminen) and has been to as many slam quarters: 3. That's after Ancic has missed five of the last seven. Nieminen hasn't made it past R3 of RG since '03 and R4 is his best. Ancic made Q at RG as recently as '06. dark ambient: Today's match didn't require a lot of crushing groundstrokes, but he hit with a lot of spin and variety, keeping Ancic way off balance (which is why he looked so bad). Fed was mixing depth and spin very well to draw errors or set up easy winners. He was dancing around the backhand to set up FH opportunities and moving pretty well to his FH, so even his movement looked pretty good today. It wasn't as pretty as some of his best hardcourt tennis, but he'll never look like that on clay. HeretiC 05-31-2008, 07:32 PM Exactly. You must have a crystal ball or something or guessing in coffee cups. Impressive nevertheless! :worship: I have never seen so much dead on accuracy since Robbie Fowler was hitting cocaine and goals at the same time. ;) Well, asking who is Ancic and how can he be in the R3 of a slam says a lot, even without a crystal ball (although I do have one). ;) RogerFan82 05-31-2008, 07:37 PM Let me try your memory. How many QF at Grand Slams does Nieminen have? Ancic? Montanes? Are these guys who played against Ego King, lefty? Learn your facts first and then comeback and argue. Don't compare niemenen with Ancic. HeretiC 05-31-2008, 07:42 PM I know Ancic's results since i'm a big fan of Federer's.

I just asked what was the Faker illness in Monte Carlo!!! 90% of your posts are full of insults toward Djoker and Serbs. You are acting even worse than RFK and his obsession with Federer. Bad Religion 05-31-2008, 10:52 PM Federer and his never ending luck til semis :o Pics will rip him a new one in SF :D Manon 05-31-2008, 11:11 PM Federer and his never ending luck til semis :o Pics will rip him a new one in SF :D Bless you:) BigJohn 05-31-2008, 11:21 PM That Ancic match looked the scarier when the draw came out. Then the end was a bit sluggish (did't like him giving a break in the 3rd) but overall I'd say pretty damn good. Next match should be a breeze, then Gonzalez and Ferrer should be preparation building up for the final. (Now about the other 2's draws: Nadal has some good clay player to face until he gets Djoko, but that Djoko dude has the easiest quarter by far. Playing Nadal will be a major adjustment.) habibko 05-31-2008, 11:30 PM If that was the case, then he would retire before the start of the match. It was nothing, we all know it very well. I don't want to sound like a djoke hater (I like his tennis but hate his attitude) but you are spot on :yeah: I so wish for a Federer/Djokovic final here for two reasons, first it will mean Fed finally wining it, second it will put djoke in his real place after all this hype from the AO, of course many will come up with the "Nadal sucked the freaking life out of him in semis" etc etc but still I wish it happens real fast in a slam, a clash between those two. EnriqueIG8 05-31-2008, 11:43 PM Good win, some amazing shots from the Fedmeister. Sunset of Age 06-01-2008, 12:52 AM Dedicated to all of the Fed Hater Trolls. You know who you are. :ras: Sunset of Age 06-01-2008, 12:54 AM Let me try your memory. How many QF at Grand Slams does Nieminen have? Ancic? Montanes? Are these guys who played against Ego King, lefty? Shut up. :cool: FedFan_2007 06-01-2008, 12:59 AM Karin, let's face it. Fedal are the greatest players in the history, but the haters can't accept it. Sunset of Age 06-01-2008, 01:18 AM Karin, let's face it. Fedal are the greatest players in the history, but the haters can't accept it. You shut up, too. :ras: :angel: FedFan_2007 06-01-2008, 01:20 AM But I've always been a Nadal fan! Matt01 06-01-2008, 01:24 AM Karin, let's face it. Fedal are the greatest players in the history, but the haters can't accept it. Ridiculous. When Federer surpasses Sampras in number of Slams won and when Nadal wins a Slam other than RG, then we can (maybe) begin to talk... :wavey: FedFan_2007 06-01-2008, 01:26 AM Ridiculous.

Did you play BioShock? :devil: FedFan_2007 06-01-2008, 01:55 AM Roger can't pull those shots out of his ass too often.

ClaudiuS 06-01-2008, 02:23 PM Pics will rip him a new one in SF :D Impossible. Pics always shits his pants when he's playing to Federer. Just look the H2H. Corey Feldman 06-01-2008, 03:15 PM Impossible. Pics always shits his pants when he's playing to Federer. Just look the H2H. Its just the match up Heavy hitter v soft hitter NYCtennisfan 06-01-2008, 04:08 PM Its just the match up Heavy hitter v soft hitter NOt only that, but Ferrer doesn't have a BH that can move Fed around or scare him i.e. threaten with the DTL. Fed knows it's rally shot and feels comfortable at the baseline and hits freely. It also doesn't help Ferrer that Fed gets into all of his serve games because Ferrer can't win any easy points with his serve. fran70 06-01-2008, 04:42 PM It was a good result for Roger. He will have his big test with Gonzalez in quarterfinals if both players win their next matches. I reckon that if he manage to survive that hipotetical quarterfinal match he may reach the finals. All the best for Roger! Eden 06-01-2008, 04:43 PM I have just seen some highlights of this match this morning. Impressive performance from Roger. So great to see him playing like this. That's how tennis should be played. Clay is surely not Mario's favourite surface, but when his game is on he is a very dangerous player. Roger didn't allowed him to get into this match. It's good to have Mario back on the tour after his illness and it is truly amazing that he got himself a degree in law during the time he was forced out of the professional sport. Bravo Mario.
