I'm shaking as I write this. Amazing comeback for Roger.

(56,177 posts)I'm a big Roger fan and think this is his best chance to finally get one more slam, probably his last.

(56,177 posts)could win it all. ..didn't look like he would for quite some time. Milo's won fairly easily but didn't see it so I don't know how tough he'll be for Roger.

(16,451 posts)Johnny Mac no doubt helping there. Will be a formidable opponent. Much better player than 2 years ago...glad Fed has a day off first...

(270,078 posts)wasn't going to repeat against Murray. Those are rare comebacks. Two great matches - Roger's technique, skill and ability to win were the difference today. In the other quarter Murray's fitness was the difference between him and Tsonga.

(56,177 posts)He usually doesn't seem so strong at the end. Should be some interesting semis.

(270,078 posts)and Tsonga isn't far behind. The thing is that today was the first time they ever played a fifth set. Remember that he lost the second set 6-1 after that marathon first set (which he should have won), so he did really well to come back and win sets three and four.

(56,177 posts)In the past couple Aussie finals Murray came back and looked to have the momentum in the fifth then Djoker destroys him in the fifth.
I don't like Murray but I like Tomas, but not sure who I will root for assuming roger beats milos, although anything can happen with that match.
