vvvslaxman Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 Both move well side to side but aren't moving forward.This tennis looks good but isn't that great Both are basically baseliners. Djokvok was going forward at times. But since Murray's forehand picked up he stopped going as he was greeted with so many powerful winners. Djoko's problem is dropping in level for sustained periods. If he could hold his nerve he will breeze through this.

vvvslaxman Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 That's because neither uses the slices and angles and mixes it up. Actually Djoko's slice was very good today. Better than Murray's . it is their style of game. Staying at the baseline and controlling it. The Japanese kid was refreshing today. won like 30 points at the nets.
Yoda-esque Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 Murray would win far more points if he moves forward after ripping them cross court
vvvslaxman Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 Murray would win far more points if he moves forward after ripping them cross court He is not a natural at that.. He tried at couple of times backfired. His timing was all wrong. won mere 8 out of 19 (42%)net points where as Djoko has won 22 out of 31 points (71%)
vvvslaxman Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 Djoko has won only 12 points more than Murray overall.
vvvslaxman Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 Done and Dusted. Just blew him away in the last part of the match.
Yoda-esque Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 Novak looks set to win this US Open Agree
zep1706 Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 Murray is not physically there yet. He needs to utilize the off season well.
Raghav_12 Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 Done and Dusted. Just blew him away in the last part of the match. I think Murray ran out of steam towards later part of the match. First two sets were pretty good quality. I'll put my money on Djoko now to win this.
zep1706 Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 Time for my US open bold prediction. Tomas Berdych is winning this! :P So much for my bold prediction. Cilic just beat him in straight sets. :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical:
zep1706 Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 This getting ridiculously easy for Federer. Already had a cakewalk draw. Now he does not even have to face Dimitrov and Berdych to reach the final. Not to talk about all the night session matches while the rest of the guys are playing in the hot and humid day conditions. With his luck I won't be surprised if Nishikori knocks out Djokovic. :cantstop:
Sooda Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 I cant believe Berdych. I like him, great to watch a total balls to the wall sledgehammerer but really cant string together consistent performances.

Chalks Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 Monfils taken the first 2 sets against Federer. :omg: But it's Roger - if anyone can do it, he can.

zep1706 Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 Jinxed him LOL he is playing clownfish. No jinxing can stop him in this match.
