His opponent seems game today. About to go down two sets to one?

What's the score in sets? ESPN says it's 2-1 Del Potro in the 3rd set.

ETA: Now it's 3-1

And Del Potro is a very good opponenet. However, Federer did beat him, Nadal, Roddick, Gonzalez, and even Soderling in the clay court tournament in Madrid a couple of weeks ago. So, he is definitely capable of winning.

Del Potro up a break in the 3rd. I hate listening to tennis on the radio/internets.

del potro's good, but his style clashes terribly with federer. they've played 5 times and del potro has never won a set. fed embarrased him at the AO and whipped him on clay a few weeks ago 6-3,6-4. if fed loses today he choked

Down two breaks in the thrid now. Ouch. Losing two sets at two breaks each is strange for fed. Can't believe it. Two sets to one now.

He's down 2-1 now. Lost the 3rd set by two breaks. He has to pick his game up if he wants to win this.

Just got the break. Fed may turn the tide.

Del Potro's serve may abandon him, but hopefully not. Fed needs to be pushed.

Listening to it on rolandgarros.com. Announcers aren't Mac and crew.

This fifth isn't going to last long unless Del Potro can wake the eff up.
