Richie up 4-2 and looking to close out Maria's boy in straights.

Richie could give Grigor some pointers on a career full of extraordinary talent and unmet expectations. ::dodgy:

Milos doesn't look right. I think something is wrong w/ him physically.

He probably wanted to finish up quickly so he could give Maria a nice rubdown after her matches and have her back generally. I won't begrudge him that :snicker

Dimi has just an awful strategy. Does he have anyone in his camp telling him how his game is tailor made for grass?

Slice the ball off your backhand more Dimi. Especially when you're struggling to get rally balls into the court.

After 5 MP's, Dimi is gone 6-3, 6-4, 6-4. Great job Richie :clap, but a poor result from last year's SF :cover

Anyone have an idea how far Dimitrov will fall after this? Even with the 720 SF points from last year I was surprised he is ranked as high as #11. Seems like he hasn't gone deep anywhere since.

Milos was never a "mover", but he is really looking hampered out there. Wonder if it was too quick of a return from surgery. Nick moves on in the draw.

Not sure. But he didn't defend Queens either so there's a tumbling of points coming off the last few weeks.

Won't go there.

With these recent results Maria may want to withhold something as an incentive for Mr. Sharapova to get back to form.

I think they both need to withhold then...

Kyrgios is an obnoxious diva but he is fun to watch and he is playing a very smart match, drawing Milos into the net has turned it around for him.

Facebook generation - nothing but divas from here on out. :nono

I'd probably say more Twitter and Instagram generation. Average age on Facebook is 41
