First thing Djokovic commented on was commending Federer for coming out playing injured.

Wait until he inevitably wins on Sunday against a better opponent before blowing your load.
Been blowing many a load for f**king years and you know that

Im on the Thiem bandwagon but he'll probably lose to that fucboi Zverez after knocking out Nadal.

f**k I love Goran. His Wimbledon final win over Rafter might be my single favourite moment in sport
Wests Tigers GF win aside, Im struggling to think of a better moment in professional sport myself. Certainly in tennis, my favourite memory. I don't think I've ever seen a more grateful winner than Goran at Wimbledon. Him practically begging for each point towards the end will remain etched my memory. It felt so good despite poor Pat at the other end never really getting a better shot at winning Wimbledon himself.

Loved his insanity. Hitting an ace and then getting the ballboy to give the same ball back to serve again

Yep, it was like a gambler looking for his lucky dice. Deadset, the sportgods looked after Goran in those two weeks in Wimbledon, particularly against Tim Henman in the semi. After that win, his body pretty much fell apart. I think he even retired at the end of that year....but he would have retired very content and happy.

Haha another $#!+ I'm losing medical timeout from the "GOAT". Groin/leg? lower back? Hamstring? Heartlage? More excuses than a pregnant nun.
Joker still in 3rd gear....

Yikes. Fed takes about his 9th mto in two decades.

the old man did the best he could considering his awful form and physical condition. Pretty impressive, despite not going up two breaks in the first. This is like Sampras or Agassi’s last stand against an ATG many years younger. Djokovic too good tonight. Excellent play once he found his range.

He should win comfortably unless Thiem/Zverev find form never seen by ‘next gen’ or the almost two following gens.

I'm glad Thiem won. Lot of talk about his performance in tiebreakers but the final tiebreak didnt look very convincing. He'll need to be way better on Sunday.

No discussion tonight? All the Fedtards bailed till Wimbledon it seems

One day you’ll pick that bone all the way through.

Good to see Thiem keep it together mentally after the big one with Nadal.

For the final, I’ll say Djokovic in 3, possibly 4 sets. He’ll be over Thiem’s serve like a rash and the conditions suit him perfectly.

Really looking forward to this tennis/porno match! I see Kenin is wearing the same panties she was wearing the other day... Mugaruza going for the see through top again... and brace yourselves for some serious moaning/grunting.

Djokovic ain't losing this.

I see the GOAT triangle as almost a contest to see who can outlast the other. The last one remaining will have a real chance to win every Grand Slam until they too finally retire, since the turnips currently below them are mostly cannon fodder. The youngest active player to have one a Grand Slam is turning 32 this year. A generation where a tennis hating clown act like Kyrgios is perennially talked up as a slam chance, yet last made a QF five years back.

Almost like the Hellfish bonanza episode from the Simpsons - one of them will be the final one standing and with the chance to have a clear run at the loot, though not for too long.

Bad way to lose that after getting back in it. Djokovic has it all over Thiem’s serve. The Serb will finish it up in 3, I’ll stick with.
