Martina just said these courts are playing faster than Rebound Ace. I am skeptical, but she knows her stuff.

I don't think they are. They may measure faster but the rallies are so long

But she is more knowledgeable than me

It looks faster than Laver, but these guys are both crushing the ball so I can't tell.

Martina and Gimelstob were criticizing Tsonga for changing his service motion -- he did the toe drag and now has the platform move -- interesting change.

This rally tells me they're not as fast as Rebound Ace

Strange move. He's not getting as much pace on the serve. I didn't think anything was wrong with his serve before.

Sock looks ridiculous with the pink shoes/socks, zebra shorts, and basic T. Always thought this was interesting.

If they keep this firepower up and come to net every so often I may need to get Bananarama, Duran Duran, and Oingo Boingo music going

Wow. Jo pulled out a one handed crosscourt roller to go up a mini-break to 6-4. Then finishes it out the next point. Good stuff. Sock is playing pretty well.

Keep the faith, kid. Gonna try to shut it down now and catch Fed early tomorrow.

I'm bummed that Zverev and Nadal are last on day session tomorrow. That probably puts them at 11:00 eastern tomorrow night. I was hoping for the night session there so I could watch early Saturday a.m.

I'm good I'm enjoying g now that Isner has gotten rid of my hate early

I think the directors of the AO have a foot fetish and are pervs. The camera shots they give us, makes me feel happy I'm in Murcia

Haha normally I don't give a shite but it's sorta relevant to the court speed discussion.

Sock has made good improvement with the backhand, but I think he needs his serve to be more of a weapon to move up in the rankings.

Well boys, enjoy it while it lasts because after tonight singles for the men will be American-less.
