I'm assuming you said total crap before later stages of 2nd set, tsonga pulling out awesome shots.

Federer loses a 2 set lead at a major for the first time in his career. Can't believe that just happened.

Yeah -- Federer wasn't at his absolute best, but it's not like he was playing poorly. Tons of winners and not many unenforced errors; it wasn't one of those matches where he was mishitting forehands left and right. Tsonga just blew him off the court in the last 3 sets.

I'm at work and missed the whole thing. Sounds like Tsonga won this match rather than federer losing it so that's something I suppose. Tsonga needs to back it up now though, I hope he can.

yep Tsonga was played great, plus he showed he has improved his mentality a lot, not easy to turn it back when you are 2 sets down in the Centre Court against probably the GOAT.

I'm stunned right now...

Tsonga just went to a different level. His serve really gave Fed a lot of issues, and the early break in each of those 3 sets were killer.
I used to think I was indecisive... but now I'm not so sure.

yes absolutely, Federer played well but Tsonga played like he did in Australia years ago, and after the match he said " Everything was in"

As a Fed fan, that gives me hope for the next couple of years. Its not that he was poor, just outplayed by a man who found a hot streak.

Do you think Fed should start considering being like Sampras was towards the end, and becoming more aggressive e.g. more Net approaches?
