On another note - I the Zverev kid is going to lose another 5-setter that he should have won. I know he's young - but didn't he learn anything from the Nadal AO match?

You have to feel for both these guys. One guy has to fight for every service game and the other guy is playing groundstrokes beyond his own level at 34 after so much of tennis.

I would think they would have to put him on CC. There's no way he would finish a match tonight unless they close the roof and play under the lights.

They're NOT moving him to Center Court because they're preserving the court for the rest of the tourney. It's looking like Djokovic is either going to start really late - if at all - or more likely is getting bumped to Tuesday and will have to play Tuesday & Wednesday...which shouldn't be a problem because it's only going to take about 90-100 minutes to beat Mannarino. That match is a glorified practice session with Mannarino picking up a nice pay check for showing up.

Well they might as well send him home. There's no way he will complete a 90min practice session tonight.
