Can't say I've ever seen a 47 for total games played. No way I'm taking the under.

Looks like this is now Murray's to lose. I felt that djokovic would lose here at some point just didn't think it would be 3r. He gave a lot to win at Roland garros and I figured this would be the slam he would drop. I would bet he rests and then comes back motivated for hard court season where he has arguably underachieved at the us. Federer has to be excited but he seems to old to outlast Murray or even raonic if he gets it going.

Querrey was amazing today. Love it for him.

Djoker said today he wouldn't be playing Davis Cup and that he would have to wait and see about Rio. Looks like he will be taking a much needed break from tennis

That was free money for the odds. Bouchard sucks and there isn't another woman playing better than Cibulkova I think she wins this tournament if Serena keeps playing like she is.

When I saw those odds I thought are you kidding me Dominika will 2-0 Genie and it won't even be competitive.

I'm still hoping Federer can pull this off. I think he's gotta be pumped about not having to face djocovic.

I hope Fed blows up and falters. I am an unabashed Sampras fan. I feel Federer is not near the player Sampras was and has been gifted wins by the homogenized game.

So get off my lawn!!

I had to edit my post I had the run on sentence from Hell.

But I think the game is becoming easier for reasons I complain about every major.

This tournament, especially the Querrey match shows why. It's old clay court tennis and to me it's taking away from the sport. Guga and Muster could've won Wimbledon if they played now

Isner has only taken 3 games today to go into Droppy Dog mode. I swear if he cared any about returning a serve, he could be good.

In the first set Isner hasn't won a point off of Tsonga's serve. I wonder if you can bet over/under on games Isner scores a point

Madison Keys sounds exactly like a white girl from California.

Unclear how "homogenized game" gifts wins.

Fed was gifted wins by vulturing an unspeakably weak post-Sampras era. 2003-2005 was a tennis wasteland.

You lost me here too. If you are saying the courts are slower than they were in the past, I think that is true. But, clay court tennis? Are you not seeing all these aces and tiebreakers? If it was clay, Joker at his worst would still beat Sam Q.
