I don't know who he was supposed to play, but I'm not sad. I have to save my late-nights for the AO. Now I can just spend the rest of the evening trying to figure out how the ATP cup works.

Is AP going to get pissed at me if I suggest that he put a clock for Melbourne on his desktop? Or maybe that would just spoil the fun between the two of you.

OK, but can you tell me if this makes complete sense to you? (Other than that Spain is leading in all groups.)

You're trying to make me jealous. And you're trying to drive a wedge between me and Margaret. I'm not falling for your evil schemes.

I'm perfectly happy to watch the odd good match, and have them tell me who makes the SF/F, but, tbh, when I look at the standings, I can get no traction on how to get excited, because their structure is inscrutable to me. I'm not really in favor of the ATP Cup, and I hate their participation in the destruction of Davis Cup. But, if they wanted to win me over, they should figure out a way to make it comprehensible. IMO.

Nah.. Sis.. I have Miss Margaret. I needed a real friend because Keli and yourself dumped me for the Italian model Signore Matteo

Speaking of jealousy, now we arrive at the origin. Hmmm? I hate to say it, but you, sir, are no Matteo Berrettini.

I think its good because it gives him time to tweak some of the rust out of his game. Rafa should be able to step up his game to crack a few more DTL FH and CC BHs.
