Denon - June 9, 2006 01:41 PM (GMT)
Updates please. I'm still at work, so I can't watch this match. Going to watch it after I get home. Gotta love TIVO.
Nick Havoc - June 9, 2006 02:00 PM (GMT)
Well. It looks pretty grim for Ljubicic in the early going.
Nadal is up two breaks at 4-1.
Nick Havoc - June 9, 2006 02:03 PM (GMT)
But Ivan gets one of them back.
Nadal up 4-2.

ooo big call at deuce, Ljubo could have had another BP there...
sir matchstickmen - June 9, 2006 03:08 PM (GMT)
ok, Ljubo's cooked his goose now methinks...
Nick Havoc - June 9, 2006 03:09 PM (GMT)
Yeah. I think he's about done. I hope the Federer v. Nadal final proves more exciting.

Well if nadal plays like this against Fed he will lose I reckon
This FO has been really disappointing you know, what I find really ironic is that hardly any of the supposed 'Clay-court specialists' have made it far!
(I don't class Rafa as just a clay specialist)

Denon - June 9, 2006 03:22 PM (GMT)
How are they playing? I'm only following through live score.
Nick Havoc - June 9, 2006 03:31 PM (GMT)
I've only got the scoreboard, too, Denon. Ljubicic has at least held his first couple of service games for 2-1 in the third. Maybe he'll step it up a notch.
Nick Havoc - June 9, 2006 03:38 PM (GMT)
A strong service game from Ljubicic (four straight winners) for 3-2 in the third.
Nick Havoc - June 9, 2006 03:58 PM (GMT)
Still tight in the third, with no break chances yet for either player.
Ivan leads 5-4
Nick Havoc - June 9, 2006 04:10 PM (GMT)
And we go to a tiebreak in a set that was clearly dominated by the server.
The Dav - June 9, 2006 04:26 PM (GMT)
And we're going to have the final we all wanted to see :D
Vamos Rafa! :ok:

Lubi and THAT 2nd serve, what happened to percentage play?
sir matchstickmen - June 9, 2006 06:40 PM (GMT)
Ljubo didn't do enough, not surprising really.
Atm though, Federer has to be favourite on Sunday, I so hope he can do it in pursuit of this calendar slam...
