Delpo is putting up one hell of a fight. 9-8, just hit a dive volley.

wow cant believe fed blew his chance at 10-9 to serve for the match. Thought for sure he would close it out once he finally got the break but he choked it away.

Funny part is that he always upped his serve under pressure in every other game.

Federer incredibly tight, but gets the job done in the end. Phew, his first singles medal!

By the way, I hope this loss does not affect del Potro too much for the US Open series, because his form in this match reminded me of his form at the US Open three years ago.

Worst serve game by Fed and yet he still wins.

Should've introduced ****ing tie breaks, no point in dragging this choke fest out.
