All I am saying is If he was as sure as he seemed at the end why not ask for an explanation at the time. It would have put the pressure on people who were either trying to cheat/making a mistake/calling it correct
---------------------------------
He is trying to serve on key points...the last thing he wants is to have the crowd shouting on his second serve.

I haven;t watched the whole match but I am pretty he complained to the umpire.

"Djokovic playing in an indoor instead of an outdoor. What really is the difference he's played indoor before"

It's very different, wind is eliminated, to start with.

Novak didn't have the issue with having to play indoors, as he said he likes playing under the roof, he was just confused as to WHY the roof was on when there was no rain.
Nadal's case is clear, it was getting dark. Nole played his match FIRST today.

And Ljubo it;s clear in the clip that Karlo has a string stutter and speaking loudly in the big arena is probably his biggest fear.

Lars really went down in my eyes after this fiasco.
OK, maybe I was naive, too ...

nitb, best case is that Karlovic officially complains.

There will be coverage somewhere and it will put Wimbledon on the spot to determine what happened.

Even if it was found every fault was incorrectly called I don't know what Wimbledon can do in terms of the result, but at least they can do something about the officials concerned.

Right so you think it's Karlo's fault? He should have fought the line judge, the empire, the crowd, his loss of focus, his stutter and last but not least Murray!

What about the line judge? nothing possibly wrong with her/him?

Wimbledon has a long history of selling itself to the world as quintisentially British. Excitement and fair play.
---------------------------------------

"Fair play" has long been replaced with "profitability".

Not all 19 courts have a roof and hawkeye.

"But 11 dude. No self respecting sportsman should put up with that many bad calls if you really feel you are being cheated"

Lubo,

Ivo mentions Centre Court and Wimbedon with reverend awe several times during that interview.

He didn't expect "the most prestigious tennis court" under the sun to stage a cheat on his account.
"lesser" (pun not intended) dream about playing on that court, they adore it, just the rare, real tennis fans that manage to get a seat there (and not get kicked out ) , he may have put up with a few, but he was focused on the match and putting up with. some people do, they don't want to stick out (pun not intended here either!) in public ,the whole world watching, "embarrass" themselves...there could be million reasons.

He was NAIVE, too. he

"but honestly they must be junior conspirators though because closing the roof and delaying rafa for 45 doesn't seem really bad."

Lubo,
do YOU like Murray?

Comment deleted by Site Moderator

Do you like Murray only because he is Scottish or because you like his tennis more than any other player's?

lubo, you should contribute here more

So do you not like murray then?

He was already winning the match?
--------------------------------------------------
I can't say I like Murray. I won't say that I dislike him. But this foot faulting has little to do with Murray really.

I can tell you LIKE him. It doesn't matter either

I can tell you don't like him so what It dosen't matter
---------------------------------
Yes but it doesn't mean I dislike him a lot. And more so that I cannot see his ++ and ---.

For instance I do believe Murray is actually strong mentally (tenacious, a fighter) but has no guts (typically unable to risk a winner under pressure).
