Ivo retires. The only big server in Nole's quarter is gone.

 

[herios]

Austin Krajicek def. Wu in straight sets

 

[Carol]

Stakhovsky against Goffin, 6-3 3-6 4-6.....

 

[herios]

Kei through with ease in 3 sets

 

[Carol]

Goffin wins the fourth set and match 6-4, not bad playing against a dangerous player

Goffin struggled in the beginning and overall he was just avergae

 

[kskate2]

Borna down a set and 4-1

 

[nehmeth]

Djoker goes up 4-2 in the first.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Unbelievable coverage. ESPN3 has separate live feed from 16 different courts. You can choose which match to watch and when. Not just show courts.

 

[herios]

Djoker goes up 4-2 in the first.

Then Chung breaks back. So now after a few games, what do you think about Chung?

 

[Carol]

Who is Chung? I've just watched a couple of games and I haven't seen something special of him, on the contrary he seems to be very erratic

Djoker goes up 4-2 in the first.

Not much. Novak is just unleashing on him now. Up a break in the third set now.

Not much. Novak is just unleashing on him now. Up a break in the third set now.

He is a pretty solid player considering his age, but he needs much better stamina.

Thiem wins. Coric sent home.
