Wimbledon Day 4 Open Thread and Discussion

Sparse pickings here early on, watching Zheng-Kvitova.

Kvitova’s playing well, and is in a very soft quarter of the draw. Semifinal darkhorse, for sure.

For the second consecutive set, Tsonga breaks Dolgopolov at 4-4

ans Tsonga now leads 2-1

I really want to watch this match..
but ESPN could have shown other matches the last hour….
Dolgo vs Tsonga
Chardy vs Lacko
Benneteau vs Beck
"We're starting to get into Plush mode," Nyjer Morgan said
Anything short of 100-98 would be quick at this point :)

I don't know how quick this one is going to be...
seems like they are picking up right where they left off…
"We're starting to get into Plush mode," Nyjer Morgan said
63-62
This is not looking anywhere near done.

Where this match will end...
…though at this rate, I wouldn’t be shocked to see triple digits

I meant to say for who
I’ll go 70-68 Mahut… The end is nigh
Total toss up.
Should be Isner, but the man is playing lazily.
http://accordingtow.blogspot.com
I think he's beginning to crack...
Mahut at least gets himself into some sort of a rally on Isner’s serve, while Isner does nothing in Mahut’s game.
That was a great service game from Isner.
So glad it ended with a winner.
