Which broadcasters talked about it?

Did they mention ESPN by name?

So the deal that the Cincinnati Open signed with ESPN last November, purposely didn't include the first few days of the WTA? Or did ESPN recently decide not to show those early rounds?
All of them in the LA studio when I watched, so Annacone, Ted, and Austin.

They didn't mention ESPN or the USTA by name, though it's 100% on them.

ESPN does not have any televised play until Men or Women until Thursday so it was not done on purpose. All the WTA matches for the first 3 days can easily be found on espn3

You know you're a loser when you have to make it known that you blocked someone

I see.

Yeah, I'd prefer if all days were televised.

ESPN 3 should be used to supplement TV coverage. Not be the primary source for a few days. I don't mind using it once in a while, but I just enjoy watching games on TV more. Partly because the quality is better.

Sometimes, the quality of my ESPN 3 can vary during a match.

I guess it's going to be like this for a few years.

I'll watch the Fish vs. Murray stream.

If I had more time, I'd browse through the Gasquet - Kokkinakas. Or Wozniacki - Azarenka, Serena vs. Pironkova.

I agree. Just doesn't bother me much since it is the early rounds though

Everytime Mardy has broken Murray, Andy broke back in the following game

Djokovic is as pissed as I've seen him in the last couple of years, and just destroyed a racket. He won the first set 6-4, but he's played some truly awful games.

Goffin won the second and is now up a double-break in the third. His ball-striking is controlling the match. Novak keeps trying to hit the ball clean on the run to get back into points, but he isn't getting to the ball early enough to make full contact.

After going down the double-break, Djokovic wins the last six games. He still doesn't look like he's in very good form going into the major where he has probably underachieved the most. If I'm the rest of the field, Nole doesn't seem so unbeatable.

Remember he only has 1 US open. If he keep this up he will remain at 1
