They have to get it sorted. Otherwise one side will be at an advantage if there is wind. I hate it when that happens.

Either fully open or fully closed.

This AO has seen enough debacles with the heat and everything... Urgh.

I just heard an announcement that they figured out the problem.

After the women's doubles is over, they plan to fully close it and then fully open it
just to check that everything is working fine.

They plan to start the match with roof open.

In case of rain, they will close it and then it will remain closed.

Finally, in case that their trial operation described in 2nd para goes wrong,
we will have a stuck roof.

Thanks for that update, GSM.

Can't wait anymore. Anxious for the games to begin. Hope the doubles finishes quickly.

Just for this match. Bookies have Rafa at 4/6 and Roger at 7/5.

This translates to Rafa 60% chance and Roger 40% chance approximately.
