Yayyyy he did it. I sweat this one out.
It did not look good for most of the match, :)

This is what drives me crazy. When the draw came out, someone even called Rafa's draw a murderers row. Now tune changes, eh? OK, Tsonga didn't bring anything today. But a lot of people said Jo hasn't been his best for quite some time.
Exactly so. I am surprised to see people considering Tsonga a tough draw. He had a surgery and since he came back, he is so far from what he used to be.

He’s having quite a year, going from about No. 54 in January, and now up to No. 18 in the live rankings.
It is even more impressive if you look back a full year, 12 months ago respectively.
He was ranked 81.

The Grand Slam told us from twitter: someone fainted on the court, so they had a stoppage long enough to have to warm up again.

Ah right. Cheers to you both. I missed that.

I can't believe Berrettini pulled that off! Hurray. I think I heard that Schwartzman had a MP in the 4th. Didn't see a minute of it.

What a point to win the 4th set for Evans. The crowd is going wild! They may not finish tonight. Then they'd have to hold it over until Monday?

Dan Evans is slicing and dicing his way into a fifth set.

That would be cruel.

Maybe they'll squeeze it in...probably an hour left to play. I was thinking of European time.

That court has a roof, though, right? They could close it, and let them finish. Or at least play until the curfew.

You're right...and I think they just said they were closing it. I forget that the roof is also for lights.

What a way to win it! And, while Berrettini is a very pretty new face, spare a moment for Sousa, who is a very handsome man.
