Whoever wins will probably come second on Sunday.

The concentration to get these shot in after 6hrs of tennis is awesome!

Finally.

And the roof is closing for Rafa and Novak.

Late night?..

[BlackLabel]

Incredible stuff by both men. Anderson seems like such a lovely bloke too.

[Baron Greenback]

Fantastic interview and knowing each other playing the circuit against each other for 14 years no wonder they know each other game!

[BlackLabel]

Unless someone wins this 3-0 can’t see it finishing tonight.

Now for the real final lol...

[BlackLabel]

It's such a shame that they'll have to stop this mid match - they should just screw the curfew and pay the fine.

[cuprabob]

Great game but Andrew Castle is so annoying.

[Baron Greenback]

This is truly epic tennis! I am sure Anderson is glad its 1 set all. I can't believe it will end tonight!

The skill is at a different level from the first semi, proper tennis !! Really enjoying the great rallies and I'm not a big tennis fan.
Just wish Nadal would stop picking' his arse and sniffing' his fingers, really annoying habit !

Stunning tennis, no one wants to go home

[BlackLabel]

Wow what a great tie break that was.

[Burwood]

Never really wanted Djokovic to win but have new found respect for him.

i was fortunate enough to be there yesterday. That first match was a real slog with the two big servers but what th some short rallies. It's was good to watch but someone shouted out (at about 18-19) "cmon guys finish it up, we want to see Rafa" by the reaction I think we all agreed.
I've seen Nadal and Novak separately before, but this was in a totally different class to the previous match. The quality of the shots and the point building, athletes both. Loved every minute. Shame it was cut short. Novak looks like he's back.... but Cmon Nadal do it... madness, I've been to quite a few live matches, but this was outstanding from both.

This tennis is a crazy show of ability and stamina!

[BlackLabel]

This makes a mockery of the whole equal prize money argument - so silly that the men don't get paid more given the quality of tennis they give us.

[anonymous-user]

Yes, am also loving the fact Serena has to wait for a men’s match to complete given all her earlier whinging about match scheduling.

Want equal prize money? Play five sets !
