Conquer Club

This match is 4 hours long. The fifth set is the longest in Finals history. I don't ever watch tennis, and don't really totally follow the scoring, but it's keeping my attention.

It's a brilliant match! Rivals last year's final in terms of excitement and tension

longest tennis game EVARRRRRRRRRRRR

i always root for the americans
and there's been nothing to root for since agassi and sampras. im glad roddick is putting forth the effort but i see him losing in the end

I'm rooting for Roddick too - it's nice to see him back on form

I think I'm rooting for Roddick more than Federer. Actually I'm fairly certain of it.

Yeah, I felt bad when Roddick just fell off the map. Plus, there are no Americans to cheer for in men's tennis.

Heard of women's tennis?

Well Federerer...er...er....won the match. That was a great match, and congrats to Fed for breaking the record.

GGA!

....I mean, well played Federer !
5 stars for everyone !


What ??

I couldn't believe it, they were unable to break each others bonuses for 27 turns in a row, then Federer finally did it ftw.

This was a hell of a match. Roddick deserved a better fate than what turned out...but both men played great.

by far the most engaging match i have ever watched, (till halfway through the last set that is) it was level pretty much the entire game, 4 hours sat watching..... lol

In all honesty i think roddick deserved the win.. pressure maybe??

anyone else think he deserved it?

An amazing display of tennis, with an absurd number of shots in and out by half a millimeter and less. Roddick had 4 set points in the second set tie breaker and Federerer took six straight points to pull it out and even the match.

The whole Championship Final maintained the highest level of play for it's duration and Roddick's serve was never broken until the final game of the match. Absolutely fantastic play by both players.

It was the longest Wimbledon Final and not the longest tennis match ever. Federer's 7th Wimbledon Singles Championship and 15th Major Tourney Championship overall, making him the winningest player in the sport.

The Williams sisters (Venus & Serena) had another great tourney... playing each other in Saturday's singles final. Which was the twenty first time they had faced off in a Major Tennis championship... both having won ten previously. Serena prevailed this time in straight sets and then they finished off the day by winning their 4th Wimbledon Doubles Championship in straight sets as well.

Women's tennis is different.
i vote for the hottest. and the hottest are usually non-americans

whatever hot russian chick is out there is usually who i'll root for.

not the williams sisters

well maybe this can jump start Roddick in the latter half of his career, sort of like Agassi

That match was freaking amazing... although I usually root for USA, I'm glad Federer won. GOAT.

watched the last set in the pub with no sound on(radio was on).



well that money they paid for the roof was worth it. used only once.

I haven't been able to catch Wimbledon. Is Murray still in it?

Yeah, I've kind of been hitting myself on the head all day when I realized just how out of touch I had gotten with this tourney.
