Looking for an apology? What?

Should Novak not have hit the shot?
Yes Novak should have hit the shot, very valid shot.

But standard tennis etiquette is you do a little wave of the hand, tip of the head, whatever to basically say I wasnt trying to hurt you. It's not an expectation to shout I'm sorry, are you ok.

Yes, Fed with the break, he can serve for it

Ok. Thanks.

Seems to have inspired Rog. He is crushing it right now.

Holy shit, we have seen better matches but the drama and pressure on both of these guys is insane.

Up 40-15 with serve. That’s going to leave a mark for Federer if Novak takes this. So close.

Actually I think it sucks someone has to lose this. I like both players.
That's the way I feel, although I'm pulling for Djokovic for some reason. I'm at work with a big TV and am the only one doing so.

If it gets to 12-12, the whole court should be in shadows at least.
