    what's the point, they got hundreds of ballkids ready at a moment's notice to get on their knees and dry the courts with towels!

    Forecast ever changing. They will try to squeeze in any play they can though, guarantee that because the schedule is going to be really clogged up if rain sticks around for two days. Going to be tough on the players.

    Could be pretty bad for the night session matches, Roddick/Ferrer is meant to be on at 7pm EST. That match could go lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng, and winner has to play Nadal too.

    supposedly there might be play between 2pm and 4pm est.

    Murray/young and isner/simon are first on - hard to imagine the latter being a short match though.

    Getting kinda ugly for the guys who haven't played R4 yet (Murray/young, nadal/muller, isner/simon, roddick/ferrer). Fed and Djoko are happy already in qfs.

    Winner of Isner/Simon is ****ed. That match likely goes long. Then they have Murray the following day. Then Nadal in semis.
