Rafa wins out in the end. Had to battle hard for it.

Federer will be the freshest going into the final.

Only saw bits and pieces of that game, but looked like a great match.

Dimitrov looked like he might have the weaponry to overpower Rafa, but that Spaniard is like a modern day Asterix in his "indomitableness".

How did Asterix get his strength?

Break a piece for the Williamseseses.

Was the Goat and Gemma on the base line?

Either Goat or Doppelganger in one if the replays of Serena breaking her racquet.

Serena at least seems to mean it. Not relaxed at all. One tennis bat down
One warning.

Apparently yes, but it could be fake news or alternative facts:

No surprise at the result and Serena really does want to be the GOAT of tennis. She is probably there now.

Roger playing great at the moment. He's gonna have to keep the hammer down but I haven't seen him play Nadal this well in a long time. Rafa can turn things around quickly if Roger buttons off at all

[canefan]

Fed keeping his focus takes the third set to lead 2-1. I hope he beats Nadal in 4, you don't want Rafa still alive in 5

[No Quarter]

Nadal with the early break in the 5th and now just hanging onto his serve the last few games. Fuck he's gritty, very few unforced errors.

[No Quarter]

And the break! She's all on now.

[Damo]

This is an epic game. Can't go to bed till it's over now.

[mimic]

Fed.

[No Quarter]

Well I for one am fucking stoked with that! Fed, take a bow, GOAT.

Been a while since I watched a 5 setter. Emotionally draining shit.

[canefan]

Absolute classic. Amazing how Fed turned his backhand into a weapon. That was one of his best ever victories beating his arch nemesis

[mariner4life]

In your face @Chris-B !

GOAT

[canefan]

I know he won't but this would be a perfect drop the mike moment for federer

He and Nadal are almost embarrassingly humble.

[canefan]

Nadal is back to somewhere near his best. If the duct tape that holds him together stays OK he is favourite in Paris again

[Billy Tell]

Well this is a pleasant day to be Swiss. The country will be a tad more chipper tomorrow, in that gently undulating way the Helvetians approach life.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Thought Rafa was going to make Fed his bitch again but Roger ended up reaming that Iberian prick. Awesome
