Ramos lead 6-2 in the breaker over Daveed and doesn't ask the umpire to come check a ball that was out. He proceeds to drop the next 6 points and Ferrer takes the opener.

Ramos had played a really beautiful TB up until then. But that's why Ferrer is so dangerous. He just keep his fight up and Ramos imploded.

Fabio is saying something like " I want to see you now, outside...don't be scared " or something like that to Lehani. I see some fines coming Fabio's way.

Sky Sports are reporting that after the controversial point Fabio said to the umpire "Believe me... if I lose this match you're in big trouble." The umpire responded with "Don't talk like this..."

I think Fabio could be in big trouble.

I think so too Iona. After the Serena incident, they have to take verbal abuse seriously and treat it accordingly.

more bozo activities from the fog..

he is looking for any excuse to not take responsibility for what he does on court. he was chuntering away for ages like an agitated budgerigar.

Magro, after 11 match points, earned the right to face Murray. In the absence of any data from the Murray camp as to how he is feeling and where his form is at, and considering this is clay, can Magro be considered the favorite here?

^^After 11 MP's. Not a chance... :nono

Raonic - Chardy 6-3, 6-3.
Milos played well today, converting on 3 break points, 12 aces, zero DF.
12 of 17 points won at the net.

Fernando up a break in the first vs. Bautista-Agut

Fognini reminds me of Tyrion from Game of Thrones.

#4 Roger Federer has withdrawn. From his facebook page:

I’ve decided to withdraw from Madrid to be with my wife Mirka during these next few exciting weeks for our family. I apologize to my fans and hope to be back in Madrid next year. I’ll be training near my home, and am excited to rejoin the Tour soon!

Wishing good health and happiness to the coming baby Federer, Mom Mirka, and Papa Federer...

Respectfully,
masterclass

Thanks for the update MC. Big blow for the tourney but positive reasons!

Wishing all good things for Fed family.

I hope he is able to come back for RG to extend his record of continuously participating
in GSs which he just established at AO.

I am glad that he will be missing Madrid and Rome as opposed to say Toronto and
Cincinnatti.

What is Stan up to? Dropping the second?

Seeing Thiem for the first time. The kid is awesome. He will zoom through the rankings

Verdy goes out in 3 to RBA after winning the first set 6-2 6-7 1-6

He was very disappointing in the end.

Agreed.

This is my 4th time seeing him. He's been impressive all 4 times. Huge upside for sure.

For Wawrinka it's Thiem out!

Holy Smoke Stan.

Mr. Nishikori, your table is ready.
