Board 8 > US Open Topic [tennis][everyone is injured]

(+) Yeah! (+)

helluva delpo match today. Ideally, he would win it all. most likely, he'll be too tired to give Federer a real challenge, though it might still go four sets cause Federer is streaky this tournament. Fed will then lose to Nadal, and then Nadal will beat whoever in the final, probably Querrey.

4 US women in the QFs. Not bad. They're all in different matches too, so could be an all-US semis! (or no-US semis!)
---

really hoping for all US semis

svitolina was really good when i watched her in round 3, and she played well tonight, just blew that last game in the final set.

i stayed at a ukrainian guys house this weekend using airbnb, this morning he was like 'hey we have 2 ukrainians still left!'

woops :(

dang
---

anderson always seems like a good guy

i hope he reaches the finals
---

wow 3/4 americans are through

could this happen
---

it should happen, kanepi is very beatable, but I don't really trust keys
---

The last thing this sport needs is for America to dominate again.
---

Oh ya go my nadal

why

ya go my USA USA USA

cool

also I would definitely not worry about USA dominating, this is nothing more than a fluke
---

Of course Fed would blink first -_-
---

Bye bye Murray. See you next year
---

I wish this was the finals, I don't want either of these two to lose
---

Fed fucking error.

Double fault AGAIN.
---

How do you FUCK UP SO MUCH against such a predictable player???
---

I think that's it. Can't see Federer pulling another 5-setter.

Probably for the best, I didn't want to see him rolled by Nadal anyway.
---

Federer gave that tiebreak away. Fuck off, I want to go to bed at a reasonable hour.
---

Ok. I'm done with this open. Nothing to see anymore. Nadal has to now either contend with a Federror who has played a hundred 5 settters on route to their meeting or a Delpo who is likely gonna be on oxygen life support by the time he rolls into the semis. Oh and who's on the other half of the draw? Pablo Carreno Busta and Kevin ****ing Anderson.
---

Yeah, easily the worst major in a long time.
---

This is my kind of major
---

It's over. Del Po somehow oxygen tanks his way to a semi.

It will be hard to rank anything worse than Cilic winning the US Open but this might actually take it. No Djokovic and Murray and half injured Fed, really made this a ****y one man moonball show.
---

Anything where Nadal sleepwalks his way to victory is the worst. Comfiest draw in the history of anything.
---

sure but if the same thing was happening with Federer it would be fine right
---

Also, let's all blame Murray for being a scummy piece of shit, dropping out AFTER the draw was already announced. Federer should have been 2nd seed, no question. A guy that wins 2 majors and 2 masters in the year and 3rd seed is all you get. Sure.
---

Federror is sad. God Federer is amazing. Flip a coin to see who you get.

I mean, yeah. Nadal winning is bad. Nadal winning unchallenged is terrible.
---

you know what I am actually sad Murray and Djoker aren't there I do quite like them
---

Still don't get how you are sick with a virus a few days to stumbling into a semi of a major in professional sport, but whatever. Have fun literally dying on court when you face Nadal.
---

welp that sucked

;_;

boring nadal win zzzzz

i hope delpo & whoever gets to the final can put up a fight gg
---

any of y'all who were thinking the Nadal/Fed match would have been close are nuts. Fed had been playing like ass for most of this tournament.
---

---

Also I do genuinely like Del Potro so this is p cool to see
---

i went to the day session today. Saw Koko and Rafa

He could have been in the other side of the bracket
---

Also, :( Fed
I watched more tennis this year with all the older guys surging then in a long time.
---

no my federer =(
---

sloane through to the finals, new slam winner confirmed
---

Sloane really had some insane points late in that set. Wow.
---

That third set was insane
---

---
