Forget Federer, is there even anyone like an Andy Murray or JMDP on tour right now? Because these are the guys that Djokovic had to beat on the way just to even get to Federer in his early Wimbledon runs.This guy has the game on grass to beat anyone. He just has to put it together. Because there is no one like Federer on the tour right now . Roger feasted on guys like him on grass...bring them in with angled short slices, pass at will... But it is wide open now.
I know what you mean. But what I meant was specifically for grass and how Roger handled big guys with big serves. Today, if you are a big guy with a decent serve, you can go all the way without a problem if you hold it together. Roger depressed the F out of those guys. Toyed with them.Forget Federer, is there even anyone like an Andy Murray or JMDP on tour right now?

Mrzz HiSafiullin played a great match, merit to him. Actually, he played well better than anything Djokovic offered so far in this tournament, so I really would not count him out. Obviously, one thing is form, other thing is to translate it to a R4 match against a former champion.
I dont think Phil has played tennis, and understands that grass is a special surface, agree Roger depressed the F out of those guys and just toyed with them LOL!I know what you mean.

AgreeWhat a disappointing Slam for the youngsters. Tien, Mensik, Fonseca, and Jodar are all out by R32. Those are the top four players 20 or younger. The next two, Prizmic and Landaluce, are also out. I believe 22-year old Michael Zheng is the youngest player left.
I am still hesitant to get on the Felix band wagon ..If he faces Novak in a few rounds and have 6 mps against the great Serbian Faker i may decide then.Agree
I was surprised with Fonseca's loss just saw high lights of his match and Safiullin played 'lights out tennis" and deserved his win
Apparently Tien had stomach issues and had to go to hospital and have a IV Drip? okay now
Looks like FAA will have a easy win over Zheng, leading 4-0 in the 3rd set,
Well lets cross that bridge when we come to itI am still hesitant to get on the Felix band wagon ..If he faces Novak in a few rounds and have 6 mps against the great Serbian Faker i may decide then.
To put into context, he hasnt dropped a set as yet, and also it is the first time in 5 years he has made the round of 16 at Wimbledon? so make that what you will ? Bandwagon probably started by APThere's an FAA bandwagon?
I think El Dude is just playing with us when he says "there's a FAA Bandwagon' he has been a consistent player for the last year and a half and agree consistency is where you get results and become a top 5 playerFAA thing is not a bandwagon. The guy has been one of the most consistent players for the last year and a half...that's how you get to be a top 5 player. He just has not taken that next step, beating a favorite.
My favorite match will be between Berrettini v Dimitrov this will be their first meeting on grass, their H2H is tied at 1 all
