I have done my grocery shopping,got petrol in my car,took my cat to the vet for a check up and this match just finished?

Someone wake up Rafa ASAP,though knowing Rafa he probably has been on his 'play station'...

It seems they are, which is ridiculously unfair to both players. They should have started this match at least two hours ago on another court.

I got live Dracula stream..they are warming up...or waking up.

LOL I was watching Basketball and reading some news, by the way in Dubai one of the tallest buildings of the world is or was on fire :-/

Now I'm wondering what the ATP record is for the time for starting a match. I sure don't remember anything like this.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Apia International,Sydney they had a womens match which started around 1am in the morning due to the wet weather,it finished around 3.00am,went to 3 sets,that was this year by the way.

urrgh..a mental moth stops play.

 

[Carol]

The crowd is still there, you can tell it's Saturday :celeb:

Cuevas breaks! Rara in danger of losing first set?

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

yikes..4-5. rafa still erratic,

 

[nehmeth]

First set Cuevas... Rafa mounted the comeback, but two service winners clinched it.

 

[Carol]

Unless Rafa would continue playing so bad this match will go to three sets which means it will finish almost at 4am local time
I can't believe how far he is still of his form

 

[GameSetAndMath]

My popcorn smells great finally.

 

[auto-pilot]

I really like Pablo Cuevas, he makes this match fun!
