If Djoker win Shanghai, he reach some new score margin, probably record.

 

[herios]

In the R1, expected winners today: Klizan, Isner, Tsonga, Thiem, Kyrgios, Lopez, L. Mayer, Bautusta-Agut.

One less than expected, Ramos_Vinolas defeats Querrey and Steve Johnson beats Seppi.
In a match which determines who will meet Nadal, Ivo Karlovic defeated Chardy in 2 sets.

Cilic barely survives, Tsonga wins a tough 1st rounder, Johnson survives a 3rd set TB, Querrey couldn't get to a 3rd set TB, and Young lost a match he should have won.

Too bad about Paire. Was looking forward to his match against Goffin. Marty gets So Goeda instead.

Murray starts his Shanghai against Steve Johnson and then if Goffin gets thru Isner, we could have a Davis Cup final preview. Then Murray gets Berdych, Djokovic and then one of the Swiss. Tall order but he's well rested so it will be interesting. Muzza!

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Roger is 30 points ahead of Andy in live rankings. So, whoever goes deeper will come out as #2 after Shanghai.

 

[Kirijax]

A little bit concerned about Nadal. He was teamed up with Verdasco in the doubles but they have dropped out. Hope this foot injury isn't too serious. Just when he was getting going again. Nadal can no longer afford to have these injuries. He can't bounce back like he used to. But it is a fact that he is injury prone so we'll have to see. Has anyone heard anything?

Tignor said Roger is going to the finals and winning it all, so just give him the points!

Not so fast, Roger is down a set against Ramos-Vinolas

 

[Kirijax]

Ramos just took the first set 7-6 from Federer and leads 2-1 on serve in the second. Time to start playing Federer.

The bad boys (Kyrgios & Tomic) defeated the good boys ( Popsock) in doubles
