The Djokovic/Berrettini match has been stopped so spectators can leave to make curfew.

So ridiculous. Why start the match so late if that's the case? It is unfair to the players more than anyone.

Funny when we discussed that last week I thought the curfew was being lifted tonight. Didn’t realize it was just changed from 9pm to 11pm. What a joke lol. Covid comes out at night apparently.

Disappointing we didn't get a breaker. That ox can crush a forehand.

Djokovic was intense AF in that last game. It's amazing when he gets like that.

Berrettini makes a lot of bad decisions and seems to have some mental lapses at times.

Is Nadal/Djokovic going to be on real TV tomorrow? I remember two years ago they audibled and put the Nadal/Federer semifinal on NBC Sports Network.

Hopefully they don't put this one on Peacock or some BS.


ETA: According to this LINK, NBC/NBC Sports will have coverage tomorrow from 11 a.m.-3 p.m. That would be when Nadal/Djokovic are on court.

This 2nd women's SF has been entertaining just because both women are so nervous. The tennis is not that good.

I believe the matches are live on Tennis Channel, and NBC shows them on a delay. That's what happened the last two years at least. I remember the Djokovic-Tsitsipas semifinal last year was in the 5th set on Tennis Channel but the opening set on NBC at the same time

When I was checking scores, looks like there was some drama. Krejicova got booed for taking a break and Sakkari went berzerker over something. What an awful final, though. At least Sakkari may have been the first Greek to win a major. Pavluchenkova is a journeyman vet. I know nothing about Krejicova.

Tomorrow should be fun.

They are complete morons if they show Nadal/Djokovic on tape delay.

Is the Krejcikova/Sakkari match I'm watching on NBC right now tape delayed?

Nah man it's live. I'll bet you $100 Krejikova wins 9-7 in the 3rd though.

NBC has half of the semifinals. Zverev-Tsitsipas is at 8:50am on Tennis Channel, followed by Nadal-Djokovic after that. NBC picks up the coverage beginning at 11:00am. If you’re not on the East Coast, NBC’s feed is tape-delayed so they simulcast live on NBCSN for all time zones.

Also apparently both semifinals will be live on Tennis Channel.

If you're in the central time zone, you can watch live on NBC Sports starting at 10:00am.

Krejcikova's defense is pretty awesome. She had some unbelievable gets and she is able to get them deep in the court with the high ball.
