is everyone forgetting about the French Open when Del Potro went up 2 sets to 1 on Federer? I think Del Potro has a very good chance to win.

:lol: You see, even you don't really believe he will win. :wink:


But I must agree with you, DelPo has the game to hurt Fed, question is if he will take that "game" with him or will he leave it at the hotel.

I don't think DelPotro has the nerve or the stamina to beat Federer over 5 sets on a hardcourt.

On the otherhand he could do a Safin and just power through against his more decorated final opponent at his first attempt.

if he can end the points as quickly as he did against everyone else...i definitely think he has a chance.....but no one has a forehand like fed....he just runs people all over the place with his forehand....and his serve is absolutely amazing....when its crunch time he usually comes up with 30+ aces a match...simply amazing

Do you really think he has the game to hurt Federer?, i always thought that the hard hitters were not dangerous for Roger´s game.
He has that slice backhand that can make Del Po go crazy.
Never underestimate the pain of a person, because in all honesty, everyone is struggling. Some people are just better at hiding it than others.

DelPotro will not have the same time on the ball that he had at Roland Garros. The pace of some of the rallies between Djokovic and Fed was lightning quick, I'm not sure DelPotro could keep up with that sort of pressure.

Yes. I do.

I think Delpo will be in a lot of points on Feds serve. I also think that Delpos backhand down the line will hurt roger as he will have to cheat and run around to hit his forehands. Slice definitely will cause problems for Delpo, but this is not grass.....that ball does bounce, even on slices.

Fed will need to serve great (which he is doing at the moment) and cut down backhand errors. I am sure this will be a big target for Delpo, he will try and hit a lot of hard deep balls there.

Saying all that, I still pick Fed to win in 4.
