The ESPN commentators were making whacko comments about it yesterday.

They were trying to make it sound like losing in the 2nd round made it so that Verdasco didn't deserve to beat Rafa in round 1.

what a crock.

if anything, the question should be "Why couldn't Rafa beat the 32 year old guy that Dudi FUCKING Sela beat"?

Glad Hewitt's career is over. Won't have to see his racist face or read his stupid pressers anymore. Good riddance to bad rubbish never sounded better.

Kei vs Tsonga will be a damn good round of 16 match

I was really hoping this Sharapova/Davis match did not go to a 3rd set as I was hoping to watch 2 hours of the Fed match before heading to bed

really wondering how dimitrov will do against fed

grigor really fell off last year, but i can't imagine him not getting back into the top 10 by the end of the season

fed's got an even bigger advantage than usual with the indoor conditions, so this will be very interesting

Grigor looking good right now.

Up a break in the 2nd. Really disappointing that I can't stay up for this entire match. Looking like a good match

It is now a best of 3.

I'm expecting to wake up to see that Fed won in 4.

Down 4-2, 30-30, Fed had a forehand approach that went wide by inches. Dimitrov held. Tennis is a heartbreaker.

Typical Kyrgios

After double-faulting to lose his match to Tomas Berdych, Nick Krygios walked off the court and told the chair umpire he did a terrible job.

I like the way Monfils is playing so far. Lets see if he can continue to be serious about it. Could be a sleeper if he does.

I have very little confidence in John Isner to win tonight. How do you feel about his chances? Thing is with his draw he has a great chance to make it to a QF match against Murray.

Actually I dont even like his draw. He is not great against Lefties and then if he got by Lopez he would face a good returner in Ferrer which also gives him trouble.

I give him no chance against Murray.

He needs Stevie Johnson to somehow beat Ferrer. I think both of them will lose tonight though

Isner-Lopez will prolly be one of the best matches of the fortnight.
