These "super Saturdays" are such a bad idea - there isn't enough recovery time between the semis and the finals. I imagine they've scheduled it this way just for TV ratings, but I expect it to have a big impact on tomorrow's final, which Nadal should (I hope) take in 4 or less.
What's up with Fed though? That was painful to watch today. If it was a matter of physical conditioning I could understand it, what with his age and two young kids and all - but that wasn't what stopped him today. I don't think I've ever seen him spraying errors and faltering on serve as much before. I hope he gets back on track next year - his rivalry with Nadal is about the only really interesting thing tennis has going at the moment.
