Can he come back from 2 sets down? (SPOILER)?

Question

Can Federer come back from 2 sets down?

Can he come back and win the 3rd set? And if so, can he actually win 2 more in a row?

Anyone know Fed's record for coming back from 2 sets down to win a match? Has he ever done it? (I think I heard the commentators say that he has done it against Nadal in the past?)

P.S. Nadal fans must be happy right now! Congratulations in advance if Rafa eventually takes the title. With the way he's playing, he totally deserves it. :) I will be sad for Roger, though...

Answer 1

The record of Federer to come back 2 sets down to win the match is 3 times.  Yeah.  He did came back 2 sets down against Nadal but that was way back in 2005 in Miami Masters Series.  Now the chances for Federer to come back is slim as Nadal is in his prime.  My only concern is whether Nadal's injury will stop him from winning the title.

Answer 2

I don't ever recall Federer win from 2 sets down.  But prove me wrong.

Answer 3

No i  doubt federer will come back from this it may go to another set but i belive nadal will wrap it up =]

yes you are right that federer has come back against Nadal in a previous grand slam final..dont know which one..it is possible but  ifeel nadal will win lol

Answer 4

i've answered pretty much this same question somewhere else, correctly predicting a tie breaker in this third set, and as i'm typing this, roger federer has just won it.

i said to the other poster that i believed that come to a tie-break, federer would win, and then go on to win the match entirely. his play is a little like a snowball effect, pretty much unstoppable once he's on a roll. i'm disappointed, because i was so sure it would be rafa's year, but my guess is that chances are slim.

if rafa does pull through, though, it'll be the best thing to have happened all year. :)

Answer 5

i guess not!
