[Front242]

Pretty respectable score for Darcis considering their last 2 matches each featured a bagel set to Novak.

Tsonga is in trouble

 

[kskate2]

Yes he is. Down 2 sets to 1 and just starting the 4th set on serve.

 

[Riotbeard]

Am I wrong is or is Novak at 198 match wins at majors?

Am I wrong is or is Novak at 198 match wins at majors?

The win over Darcis was actually his 216th or 215th?? Im not sure but he's surely surpassed 200 wins at majors

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Today's win was Novak's 50th RG win apparently.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Glad Thiem won despite (or should I say thanks to) Tignor picking GGL. Now, we have the blockbuster match of 3rd round set: Thiem vs. Zverev. The prize for the winner is the right to face King of Clay in the 4th round.

50 year old Stepanek partnered with 60 year old Zimonjic in doubles and they beat the 20 something phenom Thiem (who partnered with another youngster Lajovic) in straight sets. :clap Talk about aging Men's field.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Tsonga righted the ship. Must stop hanging around with Andy

I'm accustomed to old geezers hanging on and winning at doubles! "In the day" we had Hewitt and McMillan, Gottfried and Ramirez, Smith and Lutz, and of course the Aussie's Newcombe and Roche! Now we have the Bryan Bros! uzzled :nono :angel: ;-/
