Also Del Potro's bomb have been hard to do anything with. Espcially the returns when Federers first serve sometimes are down to 175 kmh right into the forehand of Del Potro. | ||

Federer in all sorts of trouble in his service game. Down 0-30, make two huge serves and is back to 30-30, then a bad point 30-40, another huge serve and deuce. Then advantage Federer-deuce a number of times before Federer closes it out. This in a game where Federer serves 2 aces and alot of unreturned serves. It almost went Unreterned serve-unforce error- unreturned serve- unforced error- etc etc. Federer need to step up his game from the baseline now. | ||

Del Potro follows up with a huge serve it is deuce. Federer gets a 203 kmh serve back in play, and seems like he get the upperhand for a while, but Del Potro pressures Federer back and Federer hits the ball into the net. Advantage Del Potro. Del Potro serves a second serve, follows up with a volley and it is now 3-3 in the second set. | ||

Federer to serve. Federer makes three huge serves and is up 40-0. Looking to do his 1-2-3-4 over in a minute game, but misses an easy overhead to gift Del Potro the point 15-40. Federer another great serve, and the ball end up in the net from Del Potro. 4-3 Federer now. | ||

delpo playing dang well, surprisingly it's not Roger making the UEs that's losing him this match apparently. DelPo's serve is also really clicking, feels like the 2009 USO finals form JMDP hit towards the end, except he brought it right from the start apparently. hahaha Tunkeg I hope so too~ gogo! Hm that's odd though, I think it was McEnroe who said Federer that Federer is one of the greatest weather players he has ever seen. He plays well in both wind and rain, which is odd because his style takes a huge amount of timing and precision etc. Hope he'll be able to come back. | ||

Federer serving. Federer opens with an ace down the line. And follow up with two unreturned serves. 40-0 Federer. 2nd serve Federer, and an easy unforced error from Federer 40-15. Del Potro puts a lob on the line. Federer gains the upper hand in the rally again, but puts an easy ball at the net away 40-30. Federer hits a return from Del Potro on the edge of his raquet. 40-40 Federer with another unforced error, puts the ball into the net advantage Del Potro. Federer puts a forehand winner away deuce. Follows up with a strong serve, unreturned. advantage Federer. 2nd serve Federer, a short rally sees Federer putting yet another ball into the net. Deuce. An ace from Federer advantage. Followed up by another huge serve, unreturned from Del Potro. Federer leads 5-4 now. What should be an easy game from 40-0 almost ended up costing Federer the match. | ||
