Can hardly wait for Karlovic v Federer. No really I can. Will watch it but don't exactly anticipate any fun viewing. Best matches tonight are probably Djokovic - Chardy and more so Gulbis v Benneteau. Hope Chardy and Benneteau make things interesting.

I have always like Chardy - he's got some flashy shots and when he's on, he's quite good. He used to wreak havoc on my draws. It seemed whichever way I picked, he did the opposite. Glad to see that he's more consistent these days, and I think it will be a fun match to watch.

:puzzled

... I picked Djokovic to win and hope Chardy doesn't mess with my draw again.

^ Yup. Chardy is so annoying that way. Always plays well when you don't want him to and then when you're expecting a fun match like tonight hopefully, he plays crap. Hope he plays well tonight.

Well at least it's like the ultimate practice session for ROS for Roger. Nothing else really and hardly exciting to watch. Poor fans getting tickets to this.

6 games played in 18 mins is pretty fast. Not as fast as Tomic's match yesterday though, obviously.

Fed breaks the Doctor early, and through various holds by each takes the opener 6-4

47 mins it took Fed to win that service game lol. Wonder what the record is.

A Nadal-esque banana passing shot from Fed there.

I get it. But be honest here. If you had tickets to a tournament you bought a year ago and then your first born showed up before the tournament started, what would you do?

I can't disagree with anything you're saying although I hear the odd shot of whiskey does babies no harm :D

This is going to a breaker. Fed will need to continue serving well.

2 MP's and Fed comes through on the first one courtesy of an Ivo error. 6-4 7-6(4)
