Had to step away from my desk, just got back when Verdy was up 5-3 in the breaker. What happened? He slammed his racquet at the end of the set and I assume went off court for a bathroom break.

Delbonis played some amazing points to pull that out. Very aggressive, bold play, including one of the best backhands I've seen in ages, which was also a return of serve winner. Great shot.

This is unbearably bad tennis right now. Please end this and get Haas-Fog out there.

Although I don't necessarily agree, I understand where DF is coming from. Verdy has been complicating this match.

How long have you been watching?

Everything except the last 5 points of the 2nd set tiebreak.

That's a good way of putting it. This should have been over a long time ago, but Fernando has been so uneven he's still out there.

(Close your eyes, Herios.)

At this point, I'm rooting for Delbonis.

I'm not the biggest fan of clay tennis to begin with so keep that in mind. One guy can't move and the other guy is playing like the Verdasco we've seen most of 2013.

3 BP's for Delbonis and unlike Verdy he knows how to convert. Serves for the match at 5-3. Looks like this will be over soon DF.


Or Not. Verdy breaks back. Aye.

Good God. Clearly I would have been better off going to work today.

You have to excuse Darth DJ. He can be very Darth if you know what I mean.

See. Just like that it's over now. Bring on the ageless one and the fabulous.
