calimero, I understand all of that and that Davydenko is a tough competitor. Nevertheless, it is not good for a #1 to keep losing serve when serving for a set, or like today, a match. It's not all about the rhythm and the court. If he could get himself to a position of serving for a set or a match, he must learn to serve it out. Whatsoever, he needs to improve that, he needs to.

The good part of this match is that Roger is serving and volleying a lot. That will be necessary in other matches as well as the U.S Open. He sometimes get too caught up in baseline rallies or too comfortable in his abilities to rally that he forgets to come to the net to finish up points or make returning difficult for his opponents. When opponents see him serve and volleying, they cannot just take full swings at returns. Hence, he makes them guess what he is up to.
