Rafa breaks and is serving for a 2 sets to love lead. Fed is playing some great tennis, but Rafa is making some incredible shots.

Can't choke much harder than Fed did from 40-0. Very disappointing performance, better to get triple bageled being aggressive instead of a tried hard performance.

It was over when Roger beat Stan. I suppose apologies for mocking the GOAT Goffin, at least he won a set.

To be fair Nadal is playing at a ridiculously high level right now. Federer has played pretty well all tournament reaching the semi's at 37 is insane. He added to his legacy as top 10 clay court player of all time.

Novak wins that second set easily. Nadal is playing well but there's a reason you're rooting for Thiem.

I'm not too sure what to think when the guy named Nadal Fan has the most level headed and respectful take on this match. calling Roger a choker while downplaying Rafa's performance is either highly disingenuous or ignorant, and I'm not sure which is worse.
Roger was clearly uncomfortable the whole match, trying to hit through Rafa and even brought back the super flat cross court backhand for a while. decent game plan when it's not Roland Garros clay with a tornado in the middle of the stadium. in these conditions, there was never going to be a different result.
go take care of business Djoker so that we can enjoy an epic finale during Sunday breakfast.

Novak is rattled right now, down 2-5 and just requested play be stopped, to which they said no.

Thiem takes the opening set 6-2 in 27 minutes. Joker is all out of sorts, we're going to see a racquet smash in short order.

This rain delay is just what the doctor ordered for Novak.

I'm cheering for Thiem solely for the reason he could say something like "So, can I get my full allotted media conference time?" 
Otherwise, go Novak!

I want Thiem to walk up and accept the trophy, only for Serena to appear out of nowhere, grab the mic and yell "Yo Dominic, I'm really happy for you, Imma let you finish but Sofia Kenin had one of the best matches of all time!"
