both of these matches ended up kind of being duds

i just don't see tomic coming back

 

[cezero]

attention HS:

Berdych and Rafa are playing in the QF

That's right, somebody who can beat Rafa is playing him next.

So please come back and talk about it.

I just hope the Murray lives up to the hype.

i'll end up DVRing it.

i can't imagine it NOT being an excellent match so long as they're both physically fine.

i just wish there were a way to DVR the whole Kyrgios match. I'll have to just go with whatever ESPN ends up showing of it.

 

[bksballer89]

Wow kyrgios came from 2 sets down and is now up a break & is 2 games away from victory

 

[bksballer89]

Seppi breaks!!!

Back on serve

Dimitrov blows a 5-2 lead in the 4th to lose. Lost his cool when 1 of his balls was called out after Murray played it and hit it out. It was changed to in but they had to replay the point because the shot was called out originally.


Disappointed in Tomic. Really thought this would be the time he steps up. At least Krygios came back. Didn't look very good though. Hopefully just a hiccup match.


No surprise with Nadal in a blowout. Didn't watch it. No surprises on the womens side either. Makarova playing extremely well. Only saw a little of her match. None of the others.

 

[bksballer89]

Dimitrov handed Murray the match with his collapse in the 1st & 4th set. Match really should have been 3-1 dimitrov.

Had a 3-0 lead in the first set

I ended up staying up and watching until the end of the Murray/Dimitrov match.

Between that match and the Kyrgios/Seppi match, just wow, it was quality tennis for about 6 straight hours.

Really fun to watch.

Yep made up for the terrible tennis that happened for much of the day.

Laver will be rocking for Kyrgios & Murray.

I can't wait

Roof is closed today.

No play on outer courts at the moment

 

[bksballer89]

CIbulkova 1 game away from beating Azarenka

 

[bksballer89]

No way is Serena winning this tournament

 

[bksballer89]

This serena match is good

If the Ferrer/Nishikori match is any good, very likely that it pushes the night session back a bit due to the first 2 Women matches going the distance

 

[bksballer89]

Wawrinka draw has been so freaking easy. This guy will face his first ranked opponent in the QF.

Unreal

 

[bksballer89]

First 2 matches took about 4 hours.

Serena is through to the QF

Kei & David should get going by 1215 EST

 

[cezero]

hs will be so disappointed

 

[bksballer89]

3 namer Lopez is trying his best to push Stan to the 5th after being down 2 sets to 0.

Break point for 3 namer Lopez to go up 5-3 in the 4th

 

[bksballer89]

Collapse from Stan the Man

 

[bksballer89]

Wow what a rally by Stan. He was down 6-2 in the tiebreak and has now won 4 straight points

6 all in the tiebreak
