Kyrgios took out Berdy 4 and 4.

If he beats the winner of Kohl and Stan, he'll get this guy in the final named Novak.
would be one of the more anticipated finals in a while for me.

Nole quit after a set with pink eye or something.

So I'm watching a live Davis Cup match on grass between the U.S. and Australia right now. Isner/Groth servefest, though.

Quite soon. Get ready for deep runs in one or more of Madrid, Monte Carlo, Rome, and RG.

He used to annoy me when I was growing up, but I began to appreciate his historical knowledge and quirks/flair as I got older. I kind of felt bad when he got moved out of the booth for McEnroe. Bud was a staple on those Wimbledon calls for at least a decade. RIP.

Nice eulogy from Jon Wertheim.

Has the Indian Wells draw come out yet? Been a little out of the loop the last 2 weeks.

I think the draw is Monday and qualies are the first few days next week. I saw that Fritz, Tiafoe, Ram, and Del Potro received wildcards.

Isner and Tomic on now. The doubles was crazy yesterday. The Bryan brothers cruised through the first two sets, then Hewitt made them look foolish with angle and dip returns all over the place, while his partner generally served well. Luckily, the Bryans got their stuff straight in the fifth. I have a bad feeling the U.S. takes the gaspipe today. It would be interesting to see if Australia plays Hewitt in the deciding match.

Isner looking questionable here in the 4th set TB. Don't know if he will win the 5th should it get there. Hewitt is 2-0 v Sock, he might call on himself.
Eta I think Groth gave Sock the business in Wimbledon first round last round also, so he might stick with him.
Eta John righted the ship. So it's Belgium or Crotia, right?

Yep, glad that Krygios and Kokk didn't play. Bry bros pulled one out of their arse yesterday that was huge. Thought they were gonna drop that match. Settled down a lot late.

Indian Wells draw has been released.

Kind of lame, yet also a great opportunity for each other that Fritz and Tiafoe play in the first round.

Let's also welcome new poster MidnightVibe.

Jack Sock is now a Nike guy and promoting $220 shoes.
