    Hope you're right EP. It's already 11:30pm here and I'll be pissed if I go to bed with 2 days worth of matches pending. So frustrating.

    That's the update from the RG website as of 13 minutes ago, so we shall see! The weather forecast on weather.com shows clear skies for the rest of today, but I also thought that's what it said last night for all day.

    RG will finally have one next year. Believe that leaves the US Open as the only one without at least one covered court.

    Maybe we should start a line on when this tourney will end. I'll take end of June for $200 if Tail's weather forecast holds true. Hate this stop and start crap, especially when your player has almost closed out the match. Too much can change when they have time to rest.

    Did you see that interview I posted in my thread yesterday that Ljubi gave to a Croatian local paper after his last match? He basically said his body is on the verge of calling it quits at the moment. Right when I read that he became a play for me. I was actually thinking of starting a thread so everyone could post that kind of stuff in it. Like Querrey saying after he got smoked that his mind wasn't in the game, he wanted to go home and pulled out of the doubles, etc... If someone talks about it in their thread and you miss it, it could really screw you over if you haven't come across that info yourself.

    looks like four men's and three women's matches have resumed. It's getting late, though. I'm not sure they'll be able to finish all of them.

    It looks like there will be a window of good weather during daytime. They should get through a bunch of early games, but later ones might be delayed...

    Yeah early morning matches look like they will be delayed, but if the forecasts are close to accurate looks like there will be solid windows of opportunity. The last scheduled matches of the day seem most likely to not get in. That means Youzhny-Tsonga & Murray-Berdych may not get in on Sunday or at least may be suspended in-match. Sucks because those might be the two best men's matches today.
