Roddick won the first 6-4, but is a break down and 3-4 in the second set. Could be a long haul this game!

One set all.
7-6 to the Fed in the second, coming back from 2-6 in the tie break....

Unbelievable!
Roddick and FedEx take the second set to a tie break.
Roddick gets to a 6-2 lead in the tiebreak, with one more serve to take a 2 set to nothing lead.
FedEx comes back to win the tiebreak 8-6!
1 set all. Game well and truly on - although Federer playing very cautious - he's being very methodical with his shots rather than getting into a slug-fest. Roddick hasn't had his serve broken yet in regular play!

Australian Danielle Di Toro was runner up in the women's wheelchair doubles final. One of the girls who beat her is one hell of a champion though - hasn't lost in 8 years!

Roddick breaks Federer in the fourth game of the 4th set to take a 3-1 lead.
A-Rod still hasn't had his serve broken (other than mini-breaks in tiebreakers) although he did save break opportunity in a game in the first set.

Roddick serves it out to take the fourth set 6-3.
A-Rod is yet to have his serve broken, FedEx has been broken twice.
I know that prior to this game though, A-Rod has spent more than 4 hours extra on court than FedEx.
Will A-Rod be able to maintain his service form or will fitness start to wear him down with the extra time he has been on court in this tournament?

Federer up 5-4 in the fifth - on serve.
FedEx is playing too cautiously (still) - he just keeps blocking back the A-Rod serve and having "soft" rallies. He is not playing his natural game - almost as if he is trying to "coast" his way to a record 15th grand slam title. If he doesn't change something and take the game to Roddick, then he is playing in to Roddick's hands big time the longer this goes on. Roddick has saved 6/6 break points for the match - FedEx, it's time to take the game on and WIN it, not just carry on "as is".

Two break points! FedEx at 15-40 and 8-8 holds on.
How badly has his topspin backhand let him down all match? The slice backhand to A-Rod's backhand is obviously part of his game plan.
FedEx leads 9-8 in the 5th....

Whatever the result ends up, this is no game for the ages.
9-9 in the 5th now.
