So federer has somehow been relegated to court 1 for his quarter final??? What a disgrace.

Combine this with their pigheadedness around the World Cup and these idiots running the all England club are kidding themselves

The centre court match was Nadal vs JMDP...that’s fair enough. Before the matches started if you said that the Federer match would be better most people would have laughed at you.

Court 1 is a very good court.

Lol eat a dick mr hindsight merkin.

Sport is unpredictable. That's why we love it.

Kandy played one of the best matches I've ever seen on a Wimbledon court.

At the same time Fed's forehand completely fell to pieces.

I believe he's finally won his last Slam.

Nope. The centre court match was Djokovic. Nadal was the later game which was up against Raonic vs Isner.

Novak had a big sook about not getting enough centre court matches, and it seems they listened to his bitching.

Federer should never play on any court bar centre at Wimbledon. He has more than earned that right.

I just finished watching it too.

Had a feeling the whole 5th set Anderson was gonna get him.

Rightfully so. Not as if Novak hasn’t won this Slam and looking at both matches most would have thought the Novak match would have been better anyway.

It’s just a court just because it’s Federer doesn’t mean he has to play on centre. Halep didn’t play on centre every time and she’s number 1.

Novak is ranked outside the top 20 and hasn’t been relevant on the tour since 2016. If someone is trading on past glories it ain’t Roger.

It was a garbage decision by a garbage organisation.

And they'll pay the price with a final no one will watch.

Love the butthurt Joker causes. Everyone wanks on and on about Fed and Nadal being the greatest ever. Joker came along and made both his bitches right in the middle of their primes. The way he is underrated is nonsense

 

[Valheru]

Shock result with Federer but good on Anderson for getting the job done.

I note Djokovic had a nice meltdown even though he won the match complete with nearly throwing the ball at the umpire. If that was Nick Kyrgios the media would demand jail time.

 

[abpanther]

What an incredible performance from Rafa against Del Potro not to mention the sportsmanship at the end.

I feel for Del Potro playing in this era but he certainly gave Rafa all he could handle

 

[Apey]

Djokovic in with a really good chance to get his career back on track. If Nadal has truly overcome his Wimbledon wobbles, he will beat Djokovic and win the whole thing, but I remain unconvinced. If anything, Federer being out heaps more expectation onto him and it's not like he's been known for his mental strength at Wimbledon lately. Can't wait to see this match.

Sportsbet has Djokovic $2.40 and Nadal $2.50 for outright winners.

If anything they were proven correct you don’t want two ultra long matches on centre- you want them to at least finish on the same day. Nadal’s match went 5 hours and that was the number 1 match of the day.

Centre court isn’t meant to be hogged by one player. Share it around and it is just a court my goodness.

What an insane match going on right now between Isner and Anderson!

23-23 in the 5th set. If Djokovic Nadal is an epic it could potentially spill over into Saturday.

What would happen with the final then I wonder?

 

[Apey]

Anderson wins 26 - 24 in the 5th. Glad I said to myself "I'll just stay up and wait until this match is over" instead of getting some sleep before Nadal vs Djokovic.

 

[Vozzy]

Lol all the feminists having a cry over the potential of womens final being delayed despite the women and men earning the same a day after Anderson has had 2 gruelling 5 setters ending 13-11 and 26-24 and Nadal/djokovic going 5hrs after only 3 sets. The woman's final will be over in like a bit over an hour.

 

[umina panther]

The game being suspended keeps Rafa in this.

 

[Tommy Smith]

I find women's tennis to be unwatchable these days.

Gone are the fairly recent artists like Hingis and Henin.

It's now just mindless mediocre ball bashing from the back of the court.

And Serena just eats that up for breakfast.

As you said the fact that the woman's champ will get paid the same as Anderson if he were to win is criminal.

 

[Tommy Smith]

The world needs to appreciate Novak Djokovic more.

He is a phenomenon.

An amazing win!

 

[Apey]

Yeah the hold at 7 - 7 won him the match. Always a lot of pressure serving 2nd in the 5th set. At least Nadal gets points from that, a nice improvement on his last few years at Wimbledon. Every time he gets a sniff of Fed's slam tally it passes by him.

The GOAT imo. I know most and you for sure will say Fed but Joker came along when all 3 were in their primes and came out on top
