2014 Semifinals: Nadal vs. Berdych

Has the time for this one changed?

Has the time for this one changed?

No, they won't change it, because of TV schedule and tickets sold.

I feel bad, though, for the people who bought tickets for the first semifinal. Ouch!

Thanks T.

And no disrespect to Berdy, but I'm sure there's a lot of people hoping for a Nadal-Djoker final...

 

[Busted]

If Berdych even wins 6 games I'll be surprised. His H2H with Nadal actually makes Fed's look pretty good.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Can someone confirm this news please

Berdych has withdrawn...due to gastro?

 

[zalvar]

Can anybody confirm if berdych withdrew as well? My app better be lying.

Darren Cahill tweeted:

"Never seen a day like this before, ever. 2 withdrawals and no semifinals. So sorry guys. We are all a bit shattered & feel bad for the fans"

So I guess it's true.

 

[the AntiPusher]

what ... they should just play the final today

this is a joke right ?

 

[tented]

Does anyone remember an event where there were no semifinals?

 

[britbox]

^ I guess they can't because of all the corporate packages they've probably sold for finals day. Not to mention TV deals. Bad news for the fans booked in for the semis.

 

[zalvar]

Well then x_x

Novak vs Rafa finals - woohoo!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

By the way does anyone know if the fans get their money back or not with tickets to the day/night session?

 

[britbox]

^ I think they'd have to. They aren't providing the event that people paid for.

 

[Front242]

Whoa! Berdych is gone too?! Ah man! That's madness. Another guy protecting his h2h from getting even worse lol. Good job, Mr. Easy Power.

 

[Front242]

Does anyone remember an event where there were no semifinals?

Definitely not. This is awful for the fans.

 

[Front242]

Waiting 3 more days for the final means both guys will be lacking match play and possibly rusty. Quite possible it'll be a horrible error filled final now.

Well, there's still 2 doubles matches.

This is their official policy (taken from their website) after Nishikori withdrew, which is why there are specifics about session number, date, time, etc.:

"The following ticket exchange policy applies to guests who have purchased individual session tickets for Session 21 (Friday, March 28th @ 1pm) that were purchased directly (and not via ticket auction, exchange, resale or other secondary ticket outlet) through IMG Tickets, SonyOpenTennis.com or in person at the Crandon Park Tennis Center Box Office. Ticket holders who purchased tickets for Session 21 may exchange their tickets for Sessions 3-21 of the 2015 Sony Open, which will take place March 23- April 5. Please note that this policy does not apply to weeklong subscription packages in the 100 level (Box), 200 level (Suite) or 300 level (Series) or any tickets issued on a Complimentary or Trade basis. The Sony Open cannot guarantee ticket availability, exchange of equal value or comparable seat location. All ticket exchanges are final, and there will be NO REFUNDS OR CREDITS."
