Hope they move Coco's match to some other court ASAP. No point making her wait on Gasquet when other courts are free.

They can move it to court 3 where the Williamses are about to wind it up.

Venus serves it out 6-3. On court 2, Aga dumps serve and is down a break in the decider 2-1

Happy to see we still have a "Dane" in the third round after Julia Boserups win over Bencic. Julias parents are Danish but live in the states. And Caroline can play the Olympcs after all - so a good day it is.:clap

Aga breaks for 5-5, but Konjuh breaks again and will serve for it again at 6-5

Aga narrowly escapes, 9-7 in the 3rd. Konjuh should have closed it out when she had the chance. Poor girl will have nightmares about those MP's.

Aga vs. Konjuh match had lot of drama in it (but the quality of tennis was not great). They each had 3 match points. Finally, Aga won on her 3rd match point.

Konjuh served for the match two times, only to be broken by Aga.

Then in the next game, Konjuh ran towards the net to get to a drop shot by Aga and rolled her ankle. A medical time out and lot of tears follows for 10 minutes. Konjuh bravely decided to finish the match instead of retiring. Aga is too clever to kill a sitting duck.

It was just a miracle that Aga won this match. She basically has a second life in the tourney now.

p.s. Aga was my pick to win the tourney :snicker

The nighties suit her well, although they could be an inch or two longer for the general public. She never looked right in any outfit until this design. Nike did a good job.

I can't believe Aga escaped. I was sure she would lose when I turned off the tv. This could be a good sign for her.

Pliskova is a disappointment. She needs another coach.
