Going 5 sets as Matteo wins the 4th set with a love service game 75

Matteo Forza!

BTW,
Grigor acting like the roof is a deliberate act' to harm him? not an actual rule from the tournament!

Isnt it about time for one of Grigor's body parts to break down or fall off.
Hmm he has become a bloody whinger, the roof had to be closed it has been closed all week at the same time
Just play tennis Grigor for Gods sakes and he has now broken Matteo MEH!
I have never liked him he has never reached his so call potential, being compared to Federer? just made me laugh out loud
He usually folds like a tent when pressured we have all witnessed that over the years, he only got to play because he got a wild card this year, his ranking didnt allow him to be in the main draw

Stopping a match for 20 minutes to close the roof is ridiculous. I can understand his frustration. This is the 3rd time this has happened to him in a year, each time he was up 2 sets, and he got injured last year (and took him a long time to recover from it). He is 35 years old, and knows that another injury like that will likely mark the end of his career.

Either way, there needs to be a faster way to close the roof or at least play through it. If not, then if they know a match is going to run late, then they should close the roof before the match even starts.

yeah,, he should have stopped the baby Fed comparisons earlier in his career.. I think Grigor had feasted off the WTA females more than his tennis championship titles

YOU NEED TO LEARN THE RULES
YOU HAVE BECOME A WHINGER JUST LIKE DIMITROV
END OF CONVERSATION
I have told you the other day it is a sunny day and the arent going to STOP ANY MATCH BEFORE IT STARTS, only it has been raining? or rain is on the radar, a faster way to close the roof? LOL! this is an outdoor tournament!
Your making a fool of yourself posting such Rubbish!
Stop playing the Dimitrov Victim Card
They have closed the roof on all other matches all week at the same time due to the darkness, so it is not directed at Dimitrov BTW

Uh no, stopping the match to close the roof kills momentum. It doesn't matter if it's Dmitrov, Djokovic, or whoever. Wimbledon has to do better. Whether that is closing the roof faster or play through the roof close, there are ways to handle this without killing the momentum of a match.

For the last time LEARN THE RULES
As I said they have been closing the roof all week at the same time due to the fact darkness ? not just with Dimitrov matches and remember the curfew stops at 11pm at Wimbledon and play would have to be suspended and played the next day?
For God Sakes he won the match
Usually closing the roof takes around 10-15 mins, that is just a fact, I know when I have been at AO when they have to close the roof it takes 15 mins, with the mechanics of the roof they cant make it any faster

its not that serious.. if its a rain delay.. they have to adjust .. its part of the game and its up to the players to regain momentum
