Yeah I long for the days when the likes of Petr Korda and Gaston Gaudio were winning slams
Why should I? I don't gamble. I don't need to gamble to express an opinion.
A prediction of a 3-set win is not the same as saying Chung has a 0% chance.
Have you registered a new account here just to talk s**t and try to get a rise out of me?
Oh, my sides. Please stop.He's not the GOAT - can't lay claim to having the most slam titles.... has catching up to do if he wants to level or pass Serena for one example
Explains why we can't get past the play-offs
There are some very overly sensitive and touchy Federer fans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He needs to get to 25 slams to be outright GOAT
That's a strange way to define laugher. Unless you're tickling me?There are some very overly sensitive and touchy Federer fans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Still the moment anyone questions Fedex's non "GOAT" status, the Fed fans hit the roof.
There's far more evidence than just his low grand slam count
, but it's the easiest check mate to the argument.

I know, it's not my fault you don't understand how to express a prediction.

So the answer is yes. Thanks for the clarification!

Just watching the replay now. Don’t think Courier could believe his ears. Chung? His backhand? Hahah
Lol. Please get rid of him already!
Though if Basil's reading, here's some interesting stats: Vs Djokovic, Chung won only 65% of his 1st serve points and 47% of 2nd serve points. Faced 19 BPs and was broken 5 times.

It’s not because they s**t their pants. It’s because the balls coming from Federer have more spin, depth and variety which draws an error or a short ball to put away. It’s hard to see that on TV.

Chung has had a great tournament. But playing a 90% Federer is a much different proposition to a 60% Djokovic.

I don't get people who are bored by watching Federer win. Basically every other successful player on tour is a boring baseline slogger.
Exactly.
Enjoy his offensively brilliant and creative brand of tennis while you still can.
Imagine this era without him, would have been disgusting to see defensive baseliners reign supreme.

I’m not sure if it even makes sense but here goes. That was one of the more unconvincing yet dominating performances of Federer’s career, and I maintain that he’s not actually in the best of form this tournament. It’s a testament that despite that, he reaches the semi finals without dropping a set.
I just don’t think he’s ripping that backhand nearly as much, lots of unforced errors and generally in clumps at a time, but he’s playing so loose and with so much freedom that I don’t think he’s worried. He knows that he’ll turn it on when he needs to - late in the first set against Berdych last night for example.
He’s absolutely amazing. Not many players can play 7/10 the entire tournament and still cruise.

Ok your a piss taker ...now go get yourself a cup of STFU.He has a few others to over take
Haha no
The fact is that Federer still has to go past Serena and Court before he has any claim to be the goat.... even then its a stretch.
