Muller winning this would be unreal. Amazing fight after that battle with Rafa.

Well Senator, with Murray now bounced maybe the scalpers are a little nervous. Although any final with Federer would presumably still be historic.

Scalpers might come out ahead if they put money on Querrey to win it all. Was 200-1 at the start of the tournament

Is there a good website for tracking the Ranoic-Federer match? Something similar to MLB gameday?

Wimbledon.com or ESPN Courtcast are good.

Federer's just rolling right through him right now. Doesn't appear to even be taxed.

Welcome to the 2017 Roger. Hardly a single player on tour has taxed him this year. Milos is playing well enough he can still make something happen but it better start early in set 2 or this will be out of hand in a hurry.

It's the Fed serve. Milos will only get a few break chances. So the pressure on holding his own serve is immense.

Isn't Roger something like 252-2 when up 2 sets to love in a major?

pace of play is the problem. Fed speeds up when he's ahead, reduces time between serves and becomes more aggressive to end points faster. you basically get one minute of futility on his serve and immediately have to start defending your own again. there's no time to breathe and turn things around. it's the complete opposite tactic of Rafa and Djoker who slow everything down to a crawl to break an opponent's momentum.

His speed of play is a huge part of his appeal. This already looks like a trademarked 90 minute match for Roger.

Took the words out of my mouth. It just looks like a leisurely walk in the park for Roger.

You feel for Milos. When Roger is in this groove you just sit back and admire it.

I want to be upset, but then I remember we're watching one of the greatest athletes of all time, still doing incredible things. It's a pleasure.

Roger has lost six games so far...and has only lost six points on his serve. Fed has a lot of accolades, but best server ever doesn't get enough talk. He's unplayable like this.

Scalper and gambler may be two different lines of work.
Or maybe not.

Why would anyone feel for Milos? When you are a one trick pony you have to milk that one trick for everything you got.
Pound in 2nd serves at 130mph!
