    Murray wins 4-6 6-7 6-4 6-2 6-1

    now that definitely should not have been a first round matchup. Gasquet is capable of playing with anyone.

    Monfils wasn't much more than -200 over Schuettler, but wow. He had no business losing that one.

    Schuettler 6-3 6-7 6-2

    So Federer and Davydenko goes down 2-0 and comes back to win.

    Now Djokovic is down 1-0 and Hewitt is struggling. Bad day to be betting ATP faves.

    Djokovic with a lackluster performance today until he awoke in the fifth set and started putting on a clinic.

    Five straight games after being down 2-0 and now he's got match point for a 6-2 win.

    About 11 PM now in England.

    He wins!

    that's the latest they've ever played at Wimbledon

    Exactly the reason they needed the dome and the lights. Exactly why Roland Garros is getting it next year.

    Robin Haase has set point vs. Nadal!

    and he wins it 7-5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Nadal will almost certainly win, but #151 just took the first set from #1.


    Haase with 15 Aces

    has anybody watched fognini against russell. the guy is a real character, looks like the karate kid, has this weird strut like im the greatest. lol one of the worst tempers ive ever seen too, constantly smashes his racket, i have a moderate bet on this guy though, but its just hard to root for him

    Haase breaks Nadal to go up 4-2 in the third set.


    Aced Nadal four straight for a love hold and goes up 5-2.

    Roddick up 7-5 6-5

    at 5-4 Roddick, Kohlschreiber faced 0-40 on his serve, but won five straight points to win the game.

    Kohl backs it up by winning the tiebreak.

    1-1 in sets.

    Kohlschreiber has yet to break Roddick.

    Soderling loses a tiebreak to Nadal and Tsonga loses one to Murray, and both players collapse.

    Murray rolled after that, and Nadal did the same.

    Murray-Nadal coming up.

    two matches going on in California at the moment

    in one, Murray takes the first set 6-0 and Lopez takes the second 6-1
    in the other, Radwanska takes the first set 6-1 and Sharapova takes the second 6-2.

    Nishikori up 3-0 on Korolev and serving... but Korolev follows up with a break-hold-break

    3-3 now, Korolev serving. What a turnaround.

    Russell up a break on Davydiver.

    I didn't realize Nishikori had such a large American fanbase. He's getting huge applause on every point and Korolev is getting almost nothing.

    Baghdatis was about a -1200 favorite over Clement

    3-6 6-2 6-1 4-6 5-4 and serving.

    break, hold, break and Clement wins.

    I love it even though I had no money on Clement. (I hope you didn't have any on Baggy.)

    Did you go to the Bash?

    shari, I missed it. I hope one day to attend, but weekends are not a good time for me to travel to Vegas.

    I'd like to watch the Riba match (ongoing) and also Ferrer/dolgo, coming up soon, but I don't see streams for them.

    Well, we can make a pact to try to get there next year together. I'll be back in Canada after the Aus Open, fingers crossed, so we'll have a lot of time to wheel and deal so both of us can make it there.

    maybe. I'm in NY if you ever want to visit.

    I can try for next year but can't make any commitment.

    Honey, the word commitment in any context is so far from my vocabulary there's a better chance of Vliegen winning the Open than of my using it.

    I'll either be in Montreal or Ottawa, so we'll be close. I'll have a few months to try to convince you since I'll definitely need a wing-man to actually make it there I think.

    Fish bageled Hajek in the first and fourth sets and now he's up 3-0 in the 5th.

    Troicki up a break on Djokovic, tied in sets 1-1

    Troicki up a break in the 4th. I put a small bet on Troicki +7.5 before the match given the heat and Djokovic's apparent uselessness when warm. Wish I'd put more on it now.

    We all knew Djokovic didnt have a prayer of winning the title, but 1st round? We'll see.

    Devilder won his first two matches in straight sets but can barely win a game off Novak.

    Djokovic just steamrolling people.

    I was expecting Nole to fold at some point pre tourney.

    That and most other pre-tourney expectations have been wrong.

First ... 2345
