You know they’re going to milk these arson caused fires for all they’re worth - will be unbearable especially when the players start weighing in.

Tiafoe is a night match in Laver correct? Jo-Willie is a night match also? Droopy Dawg and CoCo are outer courts as well?

I like CoCo Vandeweghe she has a fiery spirit on the court and she’s a racket smasher like me. As of now it looks like Tsistipas and Novak are the top two men to beat and Ash Barty - Serena are the top two women. I’ll be watching late tonight.

I think you forgot “in Quarter #4” or “out of everyone who has played so far” at the end of your sentence.

Or maybe you didn’t.

Yea I should have added “in Qr 4” that’s true. I hope Opelka can hold on to win this match in the 5th set after he won the first two sets. I’m pulling for Madison Keys now she’s up a set. It sounds like Maria Sharapova has lowered her scream a few decibels that’s awesome.

Keys wins I’m happy. Opellka has to be mad losing the last three sets and the 5th in a tiebreaker. Nadal up now.

Yea I usually pull for Sharapova to lose but even I’m getting to feel bad for her. She’s one of the few women that can say she won all four Grand Slams. In my humble opinion if Sharapova can’t make it into the second week of of any Slam in 2020 she should retire right after the US Open. Seeing her lose in the first round of all these Majors in a row is undignified for a player like her.

Her ranking is about to plummet to about 350 in the world after this loss.

Imo she should announce her retirement, accept wildcards into a few premier events and the remaining 3 majors, and make the US Open her last tournament.

ETA holy shite I didn't even read your whole post. We're on the same page obviously

Ole Hugo Dellien is about to get pummeled off the court by Rafa. Thiem should roll straight sets against the Frog.

This Felix Auger-Aliassime match is tight. I hope the young Canuck can win it but grass is his surface. Rafa is cruising as expected. I hope Keys can make it to the second week. I know Serena will.

Amanda Anisimova might make some noise this Aussie Open if she can come back in this match. This is a good one. Felix is trying to hand on.

Hey Crack, you think Frances Tiafoe can win a set and make Medvedev sweat tonight at 3:OO am. I’m pulling for Tiafoe but I don’t see that happening.

I can't see it, but it might be worth a shot at +140. I think his only chance would be in a tiebreaker.

Then again I thought Rafa would lose maybe 2 games at most and I thought Novak would win in straights.

Felix couldn’t hold on. Grass is his surface I don’t see Felix ever dominating on hard court or red clay.
Muguruza is looking good so far and I can’t believe she’s not seeded. She could make some noise.
