Seems Berdych lost today?

Today's casualties are Grigor and Bird.

Surveying the minefield, 14 of 32 seeds who are supposed to reach the 3rd round lost. The good news is that it is at least less than 50%. In WTA, it is more than 50%.

Though they probably started with more top players actually in the field, so it might kinda even out.

all those dangerous young guns...they slaughtered seeds for their dinner

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Cilic in trouble. Down 2 sets to 1 to Diego Shortman, who did some heroics in the warm-up tourneys.

Just saw this. He's a feisty little guy.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Shortman up a break in the 4th set. This could be over soon.

Cilic bites the dust. It is official. Now Isner is the highest seed in the entire bottom half.

There is guaranteed first time finalist at this year's USO as no one from the bottom half has reached the finals of a GS before.

If Cilic is fit, he really should be ashamed of himself. The final was in his lap.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Only 8 of top 16 men are still standing.

At least we will have some variety, enough already of seeing the same faces all over again. Diego is living his prime, he will make the top 30 after the USO...
And he is supposed to be a clay court specialist.

Juan Martin beat Dominator

And now the Swiss express got derailed.
