Match point 3: Roger faults, then Cilic can't get the return over the net.

Maybe he should stop letting Federer serve for Match point.

It's about finding that next group of core players we can win with in the next 6, 8, 10 years. Let's face it, it's hard for 20-, 21-, 22-year-olds to lead an NHL team. Look at the playoffs.

taste that delicious heartbreak, cilic

all part of the plan to psyche out and intimidate his future opponents. great strategic mind on this, our true tennis hero

also is that major match win 307? I think he's now the outright leader in that stat in both the men and women's game

Cilic bottled it. Played some terrible points when he had chances in the third and fourth sets to break.

Ironic considering Cilic is like the one player on the entire men's tour who's actually been busted for doping.

(because no one will ever test Nadal, Federer, or Djokovic)

I think Nadal is being watched closely, hence his loss of form. His docs are looking for new tech.

Yes, Tsonga won the 3rd and Murray's struggling in the 4th. He just completely flubbed a drop shot although his serve is improving a little.

5th set is definitely on.

Tsonga is all of a sudden serving like Cilic was in the first two sets of the last match.
