Djoker wins.

Pretty big GOAT implications for the remainder of this tourney.

Check out the 45 shot rally from the 3rd set!

So glad to see Fed win.(beaten Nadal 6 of the last 7 times)

 

I hope he beats Djoker but I tend to doubt it.

Halepeno just played one of the best sets I’ve seen. Incredible counter punching.

She smoked Serena.

Broke her serve 4 times.

Domination.

Feels like Fed needed to win that first set.

Going to a 5th set.

Djoker’s serve hasn’t been consistent. When it has wavered, Fed has won. When it hasn’t, he has been able to win.

Wow..Fed was serving for the match and was up 40-15 and blew it.

See if that costs him the title.

Damn...Fed blew it.

Had Fed won, I think that would have cemented GOAT status, at least for the near future.

Unbelievable tennis by both players!  The tennis quality (excluding the 2nd set) was very high.  In the end, Fed couldn't win enough of the the big points which he was doing Nadal.  And with the Big 3 the margins between victory and defeat are very thin.  Still absolutely incredible that he's playing this well at 37.

Sadly I missed this while driving to Fargo.

Anyway, Djoker will likely go down as the GOAT when his career is over and this was a pivotal moment in that.

At least Fed's win over Nadal is a little helpful in the debate for 2nd GOAT.

Very impressive what Fed is doing at age 37, though.
