He should ask Rafa to give up the PEDs
He should give up PEDs himself.
Federer’s 4th round match against Fucsovics was played in the middle of the afternoon.
How come you’re not getting exercised about the favorable scheduling afforded to Gluten Free Djokovic in this tournament? Djokovic match against the mercurial but physically brittle Gael Monfils was the match of Round 2. A shoo in for the primetime 7pm slot. Djokovic specifically requested that it be played in the afternoon and it was.
I’m just reporting the commentary mate. The consensus is Federer, as usual is getting preferential treatment.
It’s the same time of the day for both players Dandi
Not for his main rivals for the tournament who are flogged in the midday sun while Federer gets to play in the cooler night time.
No it’s not. The consensus on this forum so far is that you’re wrong on this one.
Care to address the scheduling of the Djokovic v Monfils match?
Or maybe address why Nadal is allowed to veto who umpires his matches. Still no sign of Carlos Bernardes umpiring a Nadal since Nadal requested that he not officiate his matches after Bernardes pulled up Nadal for his persistent on court cheating.

Djokovic loses first set tie break.
The consensus of the tennis fraternity who are not Federer fan boys is that Federer consistently gets preferential treatment in scheduling.
Nadal who right to ask for a match official who was extremely biased against him to be changed.

He’s 3-0 down in the second set and looks to be injured.
Who’s the tennis fraternity?
Djokovic a break down in the second set
Tennis commentators who are not Federer fan boys. His fellow players who think he gets away with too much.
Lads on here defending Federer’s preferential treatment.
The top players in tennis always get preferential treatment, whether its playing on the best courts, better stringers, better gear etc. Sure are pros and cons to playing during the day and during the night. Yep night time is cooler but by the time the match is over, then what ever after match treatments are done, then press conference, it is after 3am by the time a player playing at night time leaves the venue. Where as playong during the day, yes it can be hot but the latest you will out of the venue is 7 or 8.
This is about the preferential treatment Federer receives above other top players. Sounds like you’re justifying one player being handed competitive advantages over his main rivals.
When you’re the greatest tennis player to have ever played the game you deserve preferential treatment. Up to the others to over take him, he shouldnt be concerned with the muck below him and what they do.
Sounds like he is being handed advantages to stop Djokovic and Nadal surpassing them as they are greater players.
Federer’s fellow players have chosen him for the Stefan Edberg Sportsmanship award on 12 occasions.
It’s rigged
