Nadal better not wear pink again

That always angers me.

Ya see any upsets today, BR?

Ryan Miller was the true MVP.
I really hate Jerry.

I'm not BR, but

I really like Dolgopolov to win and Serra is a minor upset. Also, I think Benneteau over Stepanek if you consider it an upset.

I dunno if Step is really an upset

Don’t know to much about ol’ Dolgo, but I could see Ferrer losing early at the USO

Ryan Miller was the true MVP.
I really hate Jerry.

Fully expecting the score of the Gulbis-Chardy match to be

2-6, 6-2, 0-6, 6-1, 6-2

Ernie now down 2 sets...

Does he have the fitness/mental toughness to win the last 3 sets.

I'm a say NO

Baggy goes down

So much for the Fish v. Baggy match….

Ryan Miller was the true MVP.

Some real nutty results today, a lot of which the heat has to be responsible for.

Djokovic is lasting better in the heat better than I thought, and Troicki is tightening up just like I thought he would.

IMO

Troicki has to force and win a TB to win this match.

Ryan Miller was the true MVP.

I can’t believe Groth isn’t ranked higher than 60

Definitely. It’s also amazing that she’s never beaten a top 20 player in her career.

She can’t keep up that pace against top players who wait her game out. Eventually she starts missing.

I like how Gabashvili is playing early.

Not saying he will win, but all you got to do is hold serve….

playing well but still lost 6-7....

I really hate Jerry.

He is hitting the ball really hard...

I’ve never actually seen him play before tonight, but I know he had a difficult US Open Series and watching him now, I wonder why?

It sounds like the crowd would like to stay at Ashe well into the morning…
