Why can't hawkeye answer this question for us?
I feel like this is not only possible, but probably very simple. If not, then some combination of hawkeye and whatever system measures the speed of serves would surely do the trick.
I'm guessing the organizers don't want it known, and proven, that they are constantly tinkering with the surfaces. If so, I think that's pretty unfair. Imagine if an NBA franchise secretly raised the rims by 5 inches for one of their games. It would be obviously be against the rules, but I'm just using that as an example.

I have to agree with this 100%. But, at the same time, I would say Bautista is more consistent. Less winners, but also less errors. Kei also tends to get down on himself, and he finds a way to turn what should be easy wins into tight battles. Not to mention the guy could pull a muscle in his sleep.
He 'should' win the match though. I just wouldn't want to lay over -200 on it.

I can't find Cilic highlights, on YouTube or the Wimbledon app. Anyone know where else to look?

My big play today is Lorenzi at +145 over Donaldson, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Yeah, he's a clay specialist, but he's a vet and a gamer. It's more of a Donaldson fade than anything.
I picked Donaldson a while back in one of our threads as my favorite "NextGen" American. He's ranked right behind Tiafoe, so it wasn't a bad choice up to this point. I just don't see him making any big strides going forward. Hopefully I'm wrong.

I love Kei's game and think his counterpunching style can succeed on the grass sort of like Hewitt. That said, the dude is a china doll and RBA can be a tough customer. I certainly wouldn't break the bank on that match.

Isner going to a 5th and Delpo drops the first 2 sets to Gulbis.
Wut?

Sela up a break. Somebody mentioned on Talk Tennis a bit earlier that Isner is gassed. You play tiebreaks all the time, you're gonna get burned here and there.
Disappointed about Delpo. I was hoping for a match with Djoker on Saturday. Ernests is kind of fun, I guess.

Isner about to lose to Sela.
And Bunk, I think these best out of 5 tournaments are just brutal for Isner.

The heat is bad for these big guys too.
Posted on 7/6/17 at 9:40 am to Dawgsontop34
Yeah, the dude just breaks down over the course of two weeks in three out of five. As cracka said, heat is a killer today. Some fans have been passing out, I guess.

McHale just had a great chance to take out Radwanska up 5-2 in the 2nd set tiebreak.
Going to a 3rd now.

Even if Delpo pulls a miracle comeback, he'll be dead for Novak.
They're approaching 3 hours just for 3 sets.

And Droopy Dawg does Droopy Dawg. But in other news CoCo the Bitch got fired up. Now hopefully we can see some real serve volley? I'll see that probably after they discover unicorn riding Smurfs living on Atlantis.

CoCo is so trashy.
Lots of chatter about court speed, as you'll see upthread. Not sure if hot weather baking the courts, different balls or some other shenanigans are slowing things down out there.

Mattek-Sands looks to be hurt pretty badly
Posted on 7/6/17 at 10:54 am to lsuman25
Yeah I missed it but her crying is gut wrenching. Her shot at the doubles grand slam is gone too.
Posted on 7/6/17 at 10:59 am to bayoucracka
Her right leg took an awkward turn and looks like the knee just buckled on that.

Oh Bunk you know better than to say that. Just because she pukes on court and has attitude does not mean she's trashy.

It's crazy how a bet can make you hate a guy that you never hated before.
Still waiting on details about the Mattek Sands injury.
