yeah and the biggest difference with the Grand Slams and the rest of the tournaments is that they're played at best of 5 sets, and with this planning the organization is adulterating the tournament, so you play 3 sets today and 1-2 tomorrow? , what's that, a joke?, it happened the same with Murray and ...i can't remember the opponent, but all this didn't happen in the past
Never underestimate the pain of a person, because in all honesty, everyone is struggling. Some people are just better at hiding it than others.

Troicki.

Yes, the planning is a bit weird indeed. Imagine if Nadal and Murray would have gone to length..

i think this way the tournament is able to make more of a profit...a second day of playing is a 2nd day of buying merchandise and etc.
MURRAY?!?!

Don't know. Surely tickets for tomorrow are sold out already. WS final (like anyone cares). Some doubles final I guess. Then there's still Veterans and Juniors playing.

Surely this is the biggest match tomorrow if it's continued then, but I highly doubt it will increase merchandising.

Anyway, still some time to play before it gets too dark.

Yeah, still light enough to continue now.

The other day with Djoko - Delpo, they stopped around 21.15 I think. 4th set is still possible, 5th not.

If he manages it, the break will ruin that epic comeback feel.
Also it becomes very apparent fed a lot lighter with footwork. Although fed has the best foot work I've seen in tennis lol.
