Watch Serena have to fight through these racial demons as she approaches Steffi. Its hard to watch. Being the only one in a world where people have OPENLY rooted against you for over a decade is hard...ESPECIALLY when on the brink of immortality.
And unlike before, now fans have a reason to root against her ("I like to root for the underdog"), so the anti-Serena jeering is going to get worse.

It wasn't like the old Murray where he's just counter punching - he went for his shots when the opportunities were there, and he still got beaten in straight sets. If Fed serves and plays like this against Djokovic, I'd say he'll wrap up #18 in 4 sets on Sunday.

Would be stunning if Serena loses, but seeing her complete 2nd Serena Slam will be great. Plus the chance at a calendar slam.
Fed + Nole are the two best players in the world right now. But Nole still has a meaningful fitness advantage. Like last year, if it goes to 5, I don't think Roger takes it.

I'm with you in not thinking he can do it (at least as long as Djok is 100%), but I'll be damned if I didn't think I'd hopped in a time machine this morning when Roge was blasting those forehands. At the very least the match should be high-octane stuff

Some great rallies there..capped by a beautiful Djoko baseline winner. You could see Fed walking off the court with a slight head shake like "nothing I can do against that"

8-8 at the 2nd tie break, Fed powers through a forehand with great width...Djoko on a full run and stretch is able to get it back and deep with a wrist flick. Incredible.

Djoko made some uncharacteristic errors (especially the first point when he let the ball drop and didn't even swing, couple of wonky errors and misses)...dude almost ripped off his shirt at the break, out of anger

Just too consistent and it played out the longer the match went on. If you wanna beat him, you need a little more firepower (like Wawrinka) because his court coverage is ridiculous
