Cilic was goat against Federer... Nishikori beat a mug Djokovic.
|

By:
Nishi is also a great returner but he's not making it tell yet. Cilic has to serve extremely well, but he is doing so far.

Tennis bloggers are also preachers... telling you how YOU should be feeling about this match! Ok then. Stephanie Myles @exposbabe @zbrain Of course, how many of them are actually AT the final? |

Beating Djokovic was a far bigger scalp than Federer.
There were signs Federer was vulnerable all tournament and he was coming off the back of a 5 setter. Did anyone really give Nishikori much of a chance vs Djokovic? Don't remember many people before it started. |

cozz all u have to do against fed whenever u are in trouble , u have to keep going to his backhand ... and he will mug sooner or later ... good players have the game and moreover the patience to do that ... no special skills required to beat fed .. whereas to beat djokovic, even if he is under par .. u have to play well

of course Djokovic is a bigger scalp that Federer. But Cilic was amazing against Federer.
|
|
By:
and he's goat this match so far aswell
|

By:
not sure if this is a one tournament wonder but if he can keep this level up then surely he has to be one of the favs for the next slam

see ww agrees
|

By:
Djokovic on his day is the brilliant. But when he mugs he's really bad.
|
|
By:
Federer even on a bad day can play ok... but Fed could have played well against Cilic he still might have lost.

The irony of Stakhovsky's moan on twitter.
Let's do what he wants. Let's give the players what they bring in. So yesterday's final will probably get 4x the ratings, twice the crowd. So these two mugs deserve about 30% the pay then? |
|
By:
Greg gutted that one of these will do better in the US Open than he did

By:
Well football is in effect paid on ratings isn't it.
The premier league draws the most money, thus a consequence is it's the highest paying league (on average). |

By:
yes im agreeing

It's also why Beckham got paid at the end of his career so much when he hasnt been a top player for like 10 years
|
|
By:
I wouldn't expect Cilic to win another slam
|
|
By:
Goran has turned him into a brutal serving machine
|
|
By:
You don't do it on either Mike anyway. I am just tearing apart Stakhovsky's latest argument in like 20 seconds.
The other thing is. He's moaning about lack of competition for Serena in effect. Yet when we get endless Nadal vs Djokovic finals, no complaints about a lack of competition. He's the sorta guy, Nadal vs Federer final, those guys are the best ever. Cilic vs Nishikori final, look how deep the men's game is that these guy's reach the final. |

getting near slams? he had one SF 4 years ago
 |
|
By:
25/1 too win the Aussie open
|
|
By:
he can win hard court slams. 2 or 3 of them.
|
|
By:
he was threatening to beat Novak at Wimbledon but then collapsed, if Mugrin is completely eliminated then yeah he could possibly win multiple slams
