So, both Dog and Fog are gone.

I saw the last half of the second set between JWT and Dog, probably JWT played his best match this season. He was dismal all year long, can this be a turning point?

Not to rub anything in but there's a reason I thought it was preposterous when Fognini's name was being thrown around as any sort of serious contender in a different thread (you know, that whole "does he have a ceiling" debate).

Tommy wins 3 consecutive games to take the match 6-3 in the third. Seppi really lost his way when Murphy called a time violation. He snubbed the ump when the match ended and didn't shake his hand.

Tommy/Seppi are in the decider 3 games all

Tommy won, but with Seppi serving at 3-3, and Haas has break point, Fergus Murphy gives Seppi and 2nd time violation, and so forces the 2nd serve. And Haas breaks. I think that was a terrible time for the chair umpire to insert himself. Seppi didn't shake Murphy's hand after the match.

Novak comes through in straights, but not w/o complication. Had his serve broken a few times including twice at the end of the 2nd set.

Stan/Riba warming up.

Was Nole strapped up?

If so, only enough for the wristband to cover. Otherwise, no.

Thanks, Moxie! He's healed in time for a good tune up before Paris... :)

Stan must be playing well , pastries and all...

Looks like Giraldo quit? Lots of tennis catching up to him maybe? When you are not used to advancing to later rounds week in and week out, it must be a nice wake up call. And a whole new respect for the top guys who do it week in, week out, year in , year out.

Verdasco falls to Gouleb in the 1st round. Verdasco has done nothing after winning
Houston. It is terrible performance from him and sort of unexpected as well.

Report me.

Jesus you're an idiot. I'm feeding off what you said, to make a general point. It wasn't meant as a dig at you. But rather, the natural flow of conversation.
