Delic and Djokovic are having a hell of a match.

terrible way to end a good match.

i can't find the times for these matches listed anywhere. do you know when the fed/safin match is going to happen live not the re-air time here?

I have no clue...its hard to find times. I would guess late tomorrow night, or tomorrow on the Tennis channel in the a.m.
Its hard to keep up with.
Fans going nuts after Delic/Djokavic match. What a shame.

i think i figured it out roughly. it's 4:00 clock there right now and the fed/safin game is the night game. so i'm guessing it should be going on in 3 or 4 hours

Roddick plays at Midnight central time..he played pretty good his last match..19 aces

sweet. since i'm a lazy unemployed bastard i'll probably stay up and watch both matches

Haha. I wish they would switch and show Hantuchova. She is down in the 3rd set. For some reason, I really like her.

Have we discussed what a luscious choke artist Ivanovic is?

i wouldn't be surprised if monfils came out of that quarter. he whipped nadal about 2 weeks ago and i think he can take down ancic

4th Round
(19) Cilic v (8) Del Potro => Two of the best young rising stars....this is a must see match!
(2) Federer v. (20) Berdych
Fed wins, Del Potro wins...setting up the most exciting match so far for me...Del Potro is the real deal. Most of the tennis heads are thinking he's going to be a top 5 player for a long long time.
(7) Roddick v. (21) Robredo - Robredo is rolling right now. Hasnt' dropped a set. These are the matches Andy has lost in the past, but his quarter is wide open and he looks fitter and quicker than he's been since he was last number 1. Please win this one Andy.
(3) Djokavic v. Baghdatis - Probably two of the top 10 players in terms of court emotions....these guys are both blatant and unreserved. Regardless of the score, will be fun to watch.
I say Roddick wins because I am being US optimistic, and I think Djokavic struggles to beat Baghdatis. He's struggling right now, and I wouldn't be shocked at all to see Baghdatis win. I just think Marcos won't be able to hang physically. However, Djokavic loses to either Roddick or Robredo, both of whom are playing much much better than Djokavic.

Im pretty sure wihtout looking at my picks that I picked him in that quarter. He's changed his game up a bit to where he won't wear down late in tournaments, but he can still get to any ball. He's the one guy on tour that can beat Nadal physically blow for blow. Freak athlete.

Monfils is putting on a show, up two sets on Alamagro. This guy is fun to watch
