TWD's Sports Saturday Thread #1 For 9/10/11: 2011 US Open- Men's Semifinals #1 (Federer/Djokovic)


It's the Top 4, the last 4, once again. It's a reversal of the schedule from the French Open, with Federer/Djokovic first before Murray/Nadal clash for the third straight Grand Slam.

Keys to the first semifinal, for Federer/Djokovic:

For Federer
1. The magic of hitting over your backhand has worked.
2. Keep Novak off balanced with your usual variety, including the dropshot forehand
3. Same formula from the French.

For Djokovic
1. Be aggressive today, none of this passive stuff in the tournament.
2. Don't worry about the crowd.
3. Show that you still are the faster player.
