Nice double hit at the net by Ivo. He got away with it and wins the match.

I was not paying attention much, but Brad Gilbert explained something about that peculiar situation what was happening there is legit and is not called as a double hit.

Who knows...but if the ball hits the bottom of your frame first, and you complete the shot with the top of the frame, to me that is the definition of double hit. Maybe the rules have changed.:huh:

It's amazing how the game can change set by set. Pablo doing too many errors giving a good advantage to Berdych :nono

It seems that Tomas is keying on Andujar's forehand and it's broken down. First set he hit too many to the Spaniard's backhand and paid dearly.

We'll see now the third and fourth sets, maybe Andujar changes the game plan too after to make that second set so badly? he should....

So, Karlovic managed to win the match without ever breaking Tsonga even though he got broken.

Yup. Jo needs to sharpen up in TB. He is not a beginner.

Muzz will teach a lesson to Dr. Evil. Good vs. Evil H2H is 5-0 including one in Wimby 2012 that went to multiple tie breakers.

And Vasek serves it out. Tremendous comeback after being down 2-1.
Great effort to reach 4 round for the first time. Big applauses on Court 1 for both players.

I like Andujar's fight. Reminds me of Harold Solomon back in the day.

An American always gets one wildcard. Kudla made the most of it, considering his record in slams so far.
