Fritz up the break on RBA in the 5th, but it's early.

Honestly it's hard to know where to look right now, as to the men's matches.

I am watching Medevdev v Botic from The Netherlands, even though Medvedev is up 2 sets to love the score does not indicate how close this contest has been ....Medvedev 64 64....Botic is a good athlete,has a great fhand and can volley

Big win for Fritz, but no wholly surprising.

Paire leading in the 3rd set TB, so the plot potentially thickens. 6-2

I'll tell you one thing, for anyone who thinks that Rafa's tennis is "ugly", don't come on here and tell me you love Medvedev's game. He has no reluctance to look "ugly" when he plays an awkward shot and wins it. :good:

Medvedev is like a chess player I would not like to play him quite frankly,you have to have patience for starters.Ugly is just in the eye of the beholder.

Medvedev just keeps rolling. He does have the Eye of the Tiger in this one.

Wow! FAA has won the last 7 games against Evans! Also, Sinner has a double break lead over Daniel so far...

Benoit Paire's shirt says "be normal." Is that a reminder to self, or a brand admonition? Because I don't really see him as the brand ambassador for being "normal."

Paire, for all of his talent, is willing to look like a guy who works with the national park service, and has a terrible tennis IQ.

Oh, wait...and ESPN has stopped showing tennis again for the evening, And why? Oh, because their genius commentators have so many basketball highlights to drum up from yesterday. Just to say it clearly: ESPN has completely blown their coverage of this AO, and they should never be granted tennis coverage again.

Cressy did win, so I get my wish that he meets Medvedev.
