Cricketics Posted June 29, 2012 Author Posted June 29, 2012 In last 8 years, Federer has never been knocked out before quater finals in any of the Major. This is a great great record. That is why he is the greatest. Even in his decline, when he hasn't won any major from last 2 years, he still continues his dominance and still shows his consistency. THE GREAT ROGER FEDERER. PEACE ALL
Yoda-esque Posted June 30, 2012 Posted June 30, 2012 Federer was a pale shadow of himself with his strokes lacking bite or depth and his movement sluggish. Would not expect him to win the semis against Djokovic, but who knows...
Sidhoni Posted June 30, 2012 Posted June 30, 2012 Ferrer-Roddick today. Roddick has not been in form and hence I expect Ferrer to win easily.
Sooda Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 ^well you were right. Huge dissapointment for A Rod, I thought he might win this on grass. Coming off a tourno win from last week- albeit vs some pretty ordinary opposition there. He started so well too, but lack of playing time caught up and he didnt have the zip on his strokes as the match went on. Ferrer is a machine and you need to run miles against him. A Rod finished by blowing a kiss to the crowd- a farewell perhaps? sad as it will be, I hope so. He has had a great career and a great servant to the mens game but age and injuries are catching up now...
Sidhoni Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 Roddick won the first set and took the next till the tie-breaker. But the last 2 sets were easy wins for Ferrer.

adi B Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 here is one of the match i remember where fedex was above the god mode [ame= Federer has done..... - YouTube[/ame]
Cricketics Posted July 2, 2012 Author Posted July 2, 2012 I hate this wimbledon website. So much flash that it lags a lot. From checking scores to checking the schedule of play. It's so hard to even scroll down.
akshayxyz Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 ^Just google - "wimbledon 2012" - quickest and cleanest way to check current live scores.
Cricketics Posted July 2, 2012 Author Posted July 2, 2012 ^Just google - "wimbledon 2012" - quickest and cleanest way to check current live scores. Ya I do that, but you know sometimes it's nice to check out draws and stay on with the current refreshed scores. Google though is amazing.
akshayxyz Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 Ya I do that' date=' but you know sometimes[b'] it's nice to check out draws and stay on with the current refreshed scores. Google though is amazing. Yes, even like to do that.. and I share your reviews/frustration on wimbledon.org experience.
adi B Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 ferer vs del potro this is gonna be the match of the tournament (if del`s knee holds up) ferrer winning the 1st set 6-2
Yoda-esque Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 here is one of the match i remember where fedex was above the god mode Haha..isnt that the AO2007 SF match with Roddick. I remember seeing that live and laughing throughout the second set. Those days, they played a montage of Federer shots during breals called the "Federer funhouse".He would invariably have 3-4 shots that would make you go "Wait..Did that actually happen?!!!" Miss those glorious days :((
Sooda Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 Surprisingly one sided win for Ferrer, looks like JMDPs knee did not hold up. he would have been a sterner test for Murray than Ferrer so this is a dissapointing result. Anyway Hopefully Tsonga will oust Murray in Semis!
Cricketics Posted July 3, 2012 Author Posted July 3, 2012 I am starting to hate this tournament. I hate how it continues to rain, players are playing their same game for continuous days and they still have Sunday off. Instead of players getting rest, it's actually coming back to haunt these players that they are having to complete 3 games in 2 days and stuff like that. Wimbledon needs to get rid of the Sunday Off
akshayxyz Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 Wimbledon needs to change timings or venue/country. Every year its same story.
Yoda-esque Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 As expected, the Djokovic - Federer semi. Djokovic is red hot to win this one though. The only way that Novak loses this is if he chokes,which is possible since Roger becomes New number 1 if Djokovic loses this one. Of course if JesusFed turns up...
