it was fun but only because Rafa was so tired. A well rested Rafa would have blown Berdych off the court.

He may have looked like it, but he definitely was tired. He just did not want to show Berdych that he was tiring.World Beater said:Rafa was not tired in the third set. He had a lot more energy than tomas and gave it his all.
Yeah but it's easier to say Rafa was tired than to give Berdych credit for playing a great match. Although taking a medical time out when you're serving for the match isWorld Beater said:Rafa was not tired in the third set. He had a lot more energy than tomas and gave it his all.

:zzz: I guess if Berdych didnt have the groin injury since the 1st set he could have done it in 2 sets, right. :ras:Mistaflava said:it was fun but only because Rafa was so tired. A well rested Rafa would have blown Berdych off the court.
You don't think Berdych was tired too? He certainly didn't look fresher than Nadal to me. 100% humidity will tire out anyone. Right now in Cincy it's 70°F with a dewpoint of 70°F. That's some serious saturation man!rue said:He may have looked like it, but he definitely was tired. He just did not want to show Berdych that he was tiring.
i don't know. He was jumping up and down and looked as fast as ever in the last few games.rue said:He may have looked like it, but he definitely was tired. He just did not want to show Berdych that he was tiring.
Well you might get to see a Federer-Berdych final.Ten_Isse_Fan said:Some people really go out of their way to find excusesI still wish Nadal would have won because I wanted to see a Federer-Nadal final, but I love Tomas

Nope. Berdych needs to work on his conditioning. It is understandable that rafa is tired from playing so much. But Berdych looked worse and I don't know if he can win his next matchmirkaland said:Well you might get to see a Federer-Berdych final.
Nah, the match was excellent but I would not want it to be the final. Lot more good players still playing out there !mirkaland said:Damn was that fun to watch. I predict we won't see a match that good the rest of the week. Well done, Berdych! 55 winners in the match!And good on Nadal for putting up such a fight.
There's nothing better than watching a high quality match. Roddick better watch out.
