My thoughts are: put the house on Djoke. If he's healthy enough to play the match at all he'll win, otherwise he'll just withdrawal, Raonic will get a walkover, and it will be a no play.


My thinking as well.

I had a feeling that was coming for some reason. I should have bit on those juicy odds for Grigs. I have Halep right now. Also making a play on Novak on MV's theory that if they do hit the court, he should win easily. Thinking about the Italian ox tomorrow, but Tsitsi does seem to be playing really well.

Nole was making some facial expressions like he had difficulty, but absolutely clinical when he needed it.

Svitolina and Pegula coming up now. Laying off Berrettini tonight as he may have some rib tear.

Honestly had no idea that Pegula was the daughter of the Bills owners. Never put that together.

She is the better player tonight. I should be happy for the American, but I had $50 on Svitolina.

It's not over. This is the WTA.

And here we go. Pegula will probably break right back.

Nerves are a very real thing.

Pegula hit like 3 down the line backhands on balls that were so hard to change direction on too. Missed every single one of them.

Svitolina fights off triple break point and loses the game. FML.

Not over yet. And sorry bout your bet, but just like every sport, I have to root for the American.

Wow. Pegula got down 0-30 and was just clutch.

If Brady can win tonight, guarantees an American in the semis as well.

Svitolina is not as good as her ranking. She's a pusher and a fighter. Not conducive to winning a grand slam. They touched on it and I agree - Woz and Halep finally broke through and won a GS by becoming more aggressive. At the highest level power and going for your shots wins over pushing

I think I want to marry Pegula.

Kinda cute, great personality, daughter of billionaire.

Rublev being -1200 is wild to me. That's like a Federer/Nadal/Djokovic type of favorite against a seeded player.

Tsitsipas walkover. Berrettini abdominal strain.
