I think Gauff can win the event. It will be interesting to see if she has the mental poise to pull it off.

Mental poise is not something I think she lacks. Which is rare to say, about a player that's so new to the tour.

Raonic is into the quarters. Has to face Novak in the quarters so a tough challenge, be interesting to see if he can pull off an upset.

I haven't seen Wawrinka volley like this in a while. Repeatedly in the 5th set.

The quarters have been set for both the men and women. Nadal/Thiem will be a match to watch for the men. Barty/Kvitova looks like a good match for the women as well.

Federer loses the 2nd set, and is down a break in the 3rd.

He looks terrible, by his standards.

Federer saves 5 set points but can't save the 6th.

It was just brick after brick from Federer. His usual clean shot making wasn't there.

Down 2 sets to 1 now.

Jesus, this is some really flat tennis in the Sandgren/Federer match.

Ball girl just ran into Sandgren on the change. Bizarre.

Who had Sofia Kenin as the last American Women in this tourney?

She is in the SF vs Barty

Kenin reminds me of Andrea Yeager. Pretty nasty out there. I like it! I expect Halep and probably Mugs to be the other 2 although Fattychenkova is finally in shape and playing very well so that one will be a war

It was ugly for 5 sets. I wont say who won because they will show it again later today.

Fed is definitely a dead horse before the Djoker match. He said he felt uncomfortable in the groin. He spent about twelve hours on court so far for his five matches. He’s not getting even a set from Nole methinks! Nole should have a breezy path to finals.

They should ban Navratilova and McEnroe from the site for the rest of the tournament. I get the point of what they're protesting and tend to side with them. But pulling a stunt like that went completely too far and was totally unprofessional.
