I've added TV schedules for live coverage in the US, Canada, the UK, Continental Europe, and Australia.

 

[Riotbeard]

I guess the conspiracy theorists will have been silenced. Novak plays on Lenglen tomorrow.

 

[Riotbeard]

Also Lenglen really has the choice matches in general. Tsonga vs. Jerzy could be a lot of fun... or an absolute error fest.

 

[Rose]

I don't want to say who I want to be defeated here because 1) it isn't popular and 2) it won't happened anyway :nono And thanks to tented
for doing these threads

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

yes..Federer and djokovic both on diff courts after 2 womens matches.

meaning prob on roughly same time, (insert a lolwut pear of your choice)..global tennis tv networks and fans not too impressed with the scheduling there I think.

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

Tsonga v jj is it ?..nice one, good to see jj winning a couple of matches after his horror run of recent times..if anything else to get his morole up for queens/halle and his 720 rank pts Wimbledon sf to defend.

and Tsonga after the sf of last years fo will be able to build his rank up after last years wimb 2nd rd injury default.

 

[Front242]

Gulbis is serving like a demon. Gonna be hard to beat in this form. Glad to see him progressing well here.

 

[JesuslookslikeBorg]

gulbis is in federers bit of the draw isn't he ??..4th rd ?.

potential upset I think..:emperor:

 

[Front242]

Gulbis is playing well but has to win this match first and the way he goes nuts over a single bad call I could still see him lose the next 3 sets! Missed it but apparently Stepanek gave him the finger a few mins ago and nothing was said to him.

 

[Front242]

3rd set goes to Stepanek. Can see Gulbis brain farting next service game.

 

[Front242]

Shows what I know Well, I still think there's a strong possibility he loses this set.

 

[Front242]

Again, little do I know Very impressive match by Gulbis.

 

[Front242]

19 aces! 94% points won on first serve. Very, very impressive.

 

[nehmeth]

Again, little do I know Very impressive match by Gulbis.

Ernie spanks the "Worm" in three sets! Looking forward to seeing him play Fed.

 

[TsarMatt]

Cilic playing some orgasmic tennis at the moment.

Wonder how long he can sustain it.

 

[nehmeth]

Novak down a break in the first... played a little tentatively the first couple of games, but starting to hit his way into it. Cilic is exhibiting the "Goran" effect; nice to see him hitting so well. World #2 has some work to do.

Hopefully isn't on Cialis. :nono

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Roger stepped it up just in time to get the first set.

 

[nehmeth]

Back on serve at Lenglen

 

[isabelle]

Happy for nuts Ernie, he can play some amazing tennis when he's in top form
