It's way slower than Rebound Ace

They said it has a sandpaper feel to it which makes it slower.

She has awful yips right now, just bending in terrible serves. And yet, last game she hit two of the nicest running angle backhand winners from ten feet behind the baseline that I've ever seen.

She doesn't have the confidence and mystique of a #1 player. And her serve is pathetic. I do like her game and she does play terrific defense and has shot making ability.

Chris Everett is not good as a commentator. Cliff can't even save her.

She's ok. Tracy Austin is bettet though.

Sure, he should do OK against the lesser Zverev. Isner should get to the fourth round with Pouille out now. Jo Willie is rolling.

Tsonga is just dismantling this guy

He's going to finish in under 2 hours easy

Beating a dead horse here but Kerbers first serve is a basically a weak 2nd serve.

There is a weird sort of thing with some big guys like Isner that they actually do well on clay because the slow bounce gives them a lot of time to set up for shots and they can handle high bounces easily. Plus, some like Soderling in his runs are strong as shite and can hit through slow conditions better than smaller guys. Sure, Isner can bomb away on grass. But, he can't move on it and can't return on it.

Big night for Americans, huh?

I understand but you'd think with his serve he'd been in a Qtr somewhere

My issue with Isner is his outward demeanor. I want him to do well, but watching him is infuriating
