Murray in big, big trouble 0:2

Oh Boy, yes indeed. I am at work and not watching though. Has he started grabbing his legs or anything yet.

For day 2, James Ward might upset Belluci.

Tralalala laaaaaaa

Come on this whole year, Belluci was losing to all kinds of folks; I said why not to James.
It did not happen. Actually Belluci even won his second round match today.

Dr. Evil has been put to trest Jiri Vesely. The match was decided by 5th set tie breaker.

I typed put to rest. But, a spurious t crept in and it became "trest"

So, we had two upsets today; Jack Sock and Ivo Karlovic.

That is only a total of 6 so far (among seeds). Kei, Monfils, Simon, Grigor and today's two.

In WTA, they had 6 upsets in top 10 alone. So, we can't complain.

If Chardy beats Ferrer today, will that be considered an upset, or just Jeremy playing the type of tennis he's always been capable of? :snicker

Kukushkin over Cilic maybe the most expected upset of all times

I'm a big fan of Disco Tommy, but I''d love to see Benoit pull off another upset and get to Week 2 for the first time at a Slam in his career.

Not sure about all time, since Cilic has really done nothing since winning the USO last year, but Mikhail just took the first set

Benoit does it. Off to the 4th round for the 1st time in his career at a Slam.

He will be scratching at the Top 30 come next rankings release, after starting the year out of the Top 125. Glad to see him back. When he plays motivated tennis (sadly, not always the case), his game is a beautiful one to watch.

Meanwhile Kush realizes he's not a top 10er that should be winning this match and loses 2nd set breaker and 3rd set. :cover
