It's gonna be pretty tough for Roddick to come back two sets down against the #1 player in the world especially since Roddick has comeback from 0-2 only twice in his career.

Damn...Roger's timing and movement are impeccable! Andy seems so sluggish out there - the tough match against Johanson yesterday might be taking a toll on him.

Roddick needs to stop coming up to the net..Federer is just blowing shot right by him.

Despite it all, Andy still has that mean serve.

Although Federer just got to break point. :( :(

For some reason I can't get my arm down enough to hit that shot, I must have short arms. :(

Perhaps a natural serve and volleyer ... but there are none on the horizon. Everyone is pretty much playing the power baseline game.

M&C: You should change the title to "Roddick got pwned by Federer"

:(


Done...damn - Roger now 9-1 against Andy, Wins 3 Wimbledon in a row, and has won 21 straight finals. I think the only chance Andy has at the U.S. Open is if someone else takes out Roger in the early rounds...then he'd still have to worry about Hewitt who also seems to have Andy's number too.

Andy vs Hewitt / Federer redefines the thought, "There's always someone better."

How frustrating for him.

federer is too dominant now.

how does he do in clay?


He won some big warm-up tournaments, but got taken out rather easily by Rafel Nadal in the semi's at the French Open this year. He's a threat on all surfaces, unless he faces a true clay-court specialist like the Spaniards or South Americans.
