Tennis Thread: US Open final weekend, and all your autumnal tennis chat this way!

[PrivateSpidey]

Welcome one and all!

Did Federer get a code violation? My tv went off!!

Argh!

Oh it's back.

oh poop.

Rubbish.

5 match points!!

COME ON SASCHA

NO negative face

I need to walk the dog before it rains again!

Mine did as well! It's gone back to the main screen about 3-4 times during this match . I didn't see if he got a code.

Well he got off the hook there, Roger. Let's see if Sascha can keep going - I hope so.

"No negative face" would be another good t-shirt slogan.

Where was that ace when he needed it before??

Definitely a good t-shirt slogan.

I hope Fed doesn't run off with this now.

I know. He should have won the match by now really.

But he's still going for it, so that's good.

Zverev should have won it I mean.

Nest best thing ti watching this is listening to you two!

Come on, Zverev.

Sascha did so well to pull that last set back.
Maybe I shouldn't watch this one. He might win the match if I don't.

What's all this about howling? Is Shakira there? Although she only goes to see Rafa.

magi

Jane

There is definitely howling. Or something.

or my ears have gone funny.

Now why couldn't Sascha do that before.

What's up with Federer? He's moaning a bit.

Hi magi and Jane

Ah, he got a warning for ball abuse, earlier. sounds painful

he's very cross now.

Sascha is brilliant at the moment, that forehand was great.

That game was over so quickly.

Federer is still moaning about not being reminded bout new balls.

How long has he been playing tennis for? Shouldn't he have this worked out for himself by now?

What are they saying? Who "looks like a fool"?!

Well there's plenty of candidates for that, but specifically?!

Oh is that what it was about? Sounds like an excuse.

Point penalty!! Ooh.

There is a lot of muttering going on. I think Roger thinks he ought to be warned about new balls, so he can choose to change his racquet.

Now he has a point penalty.

It's all going a bit Serena-like.

"Be good"
The ump didn't actually say that did he?!

Oh, default his sorry ass.

Federer has done well to keep his concentration?! He's the one causing the distraction!
