glad that was relatively quick.
they are going to be leaning on Milos pretty heavily.

Italy's three singles players are all ranked in the top 80
For Canada, Levine is the next highest at 96

Nice to see Canada developing a decent tennis program. It's taken too long.

Hopefully Milos can win a slam and do for tennis in Canada what Weirsy did for golf almost ten years ago.

I hope Canada can rally to win this 4th set because Nestor is running out of gas...

Serbia / USA are 11-11 in the 5th set, btw.


fuck. Italy up a break in the 4th (2-1)
turn it up, old man!!!

 

[puckhead]

shit, canada is done. broken again.
I think that's 3 Prospisil service games in a row.

Italy serving for 4th set now

Pospisil is playing great, but old man Nestor is making way too many errors...

Italia leads 8-7 in the 5th set - Pospisil serving for Canada

8-8...Come on boys!
