Chardy clowns around at the next - break back.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 12:41 (nine years ago) link

NID that Chardy wouldn't keep it together mentally, story of his career

lex pretend, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:07 (nine years ago) link

yup, Murray to serve for the 3rd

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:08 (nine years ago) link

The height on that Serena dropshot made it look like the worst dropshot ever but it only just landed on the other side of the net and proved surprisingly effective

lex pretend, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:08 (nine years ago) link

LMAOOOO that Chardy drive volley

lex pretend, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:10 (nine years ago) link

w.t.f

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:11 (nine years ago) link

Murray's turn to get a DF in.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:12 (nine years ago) link

gets it in the end!

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:13 (nine years ago) link

Amazed this crowd aren't up seats

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:14 (nine years ago) link

ripping up seats. *cries for edit button*

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:14 (nine years ago) link

er ok @ serena

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:16 (nine years ago) link

Serena's just left at least two Stephens shots that landed on the baseline pretty close to her for no apparent reason

lex pretend, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:17 (nine years ago) link

is she injured/uninterested/what? Stephens 6-1 inside 25 mins.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:18 (nine years ago) link

what is this shit on my television?

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:19 (nine years ago) link

Completely bizarre lack of fight in that last game, Serena just slapping the ball out. That set felt like it lasted about 10 minutes

lex pretend, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:19 (nine years ago) link

Perched for the ERRANI SLAM now

lex pretend, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:30 (nine years ago) link

Down 1-6, *2-3, 15-30, Serena won the longest rally of the match and it woke her up. Held serve then broke Stephens after the longest game of the match.

lex pretend, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:49 (nine years ago) link

Rising from the ashes (again)

In the meantime Murray to serve for the match after exchanging breaks.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:52 (nine years ago) link

did sloane show any form at all coming into this tournament? she has looked really good

cerealbar, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:54 (nine years ago) link

PLOT TWIST

I didn't know Stephens could hit BH DTL at all

lex pretend, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:54 (nine years ago) link

did sloane show any form at all coming into this tournament? she has looked really good

not really, though not slumping like Beck/Schiavone/Vekic etc

R2 Charleston (beat Mattek-Sands, lost to Barthel)
R2 Madrid (beat Mattek-Sands, lost to Serena 4 and 0)
R1 Rome (lost to Lisicki (!) 4 and 1)
SF Strasbourg (beat Kichenok and Vandeweghe, then Jankovic retired, then lost to Stosur with a bagel in the third)

lex pretend, Monday, 1 June 2015 13:59 (nine years ago) link

Serena serving to stay in the match.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 14:00 (nine years ago) link

DF to begin with.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 14:00 (nine years ago) link

Serve strong thereafter. 5-5

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 14:03 (nine years ago) link

Races to 3 BPs

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 14:05 (nine years ago) link

Serena to serve for the match.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 14:06 (nine years ago) link

lol sorry for the set.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 14:06 (nine years ago) link

Errani beats Goerges 6-2 6-2 :DDDD

lex pretend, Monday, 1 June 2015 14:08 (nine years ago) link

That was the most impressed I've ever been with Sloane and especially her BH. She made the stretch between Serena waking up and Serena breaking in the third more interesting than I expected but...the match basically followed the Serena MO. 10-0 in three-setters this year.

lex pretend, Monday, 1 June 2015 14:59 (nine years ago) link

Has Nadal been hustling us all clay court season? I'm sure these aren't 2008-vintage performances he's turning in, but the results are close to that (ok, Sock isn't done yet).

Michael Jones, Monday, 1 June 2015 15:47 (nine years ago) link

Sock now done.

How can someone called Sock exist btw? #wonderofitall

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 15:52 (nine years ago) link

i like van Uytvanck's game more the more i watch her. so many drop shots

cerealbar, Monday, 1 June 2015 15:55 (nine years ago) link

re: Sock. This is a post-Roddick thing, right? Men's tennis 2-3 years from now is depressing me right now.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 16:15 (nine years ago) link

Ooh, Sock broke back.

Michael Jones, Monday, 1 June 2015 16:15 (nine years ago) link

Twice :-(

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 16:17 (nine years ago) link

Sock will always be able to cause damage with his FH but I'd be surprised if he even had Roddick's career

lex pretend, Monday, 1 June 2015 16:21 (nine years ago) link

*clicks over to make sure someone is actually on the other side of the net against Novak*

*clicks back to Sock-Rafa*

lex pretend, Monday, 1 June 2015 16:24 (nine years ago) link

Two s-p!

Michael Jones, Monday, 1 June 2015 16:25 (nine years ago) link

bizarro Rafa collapse at the end of that set

lex pretend, Monday, 1 June 2015 16:26 (nine years ago) link

Have I jinxed Rafa?

Michael Jones, Monday, 1 June 2015 16:26 (nine years ago) link

Sock drags this on!

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 16:26 (nine years ago) link

Nadal got that break (courtesy of a couple of DFs from Sock) and then saved his own serve with an ace on 30-40.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 16:55 (nine years ago) link

Nadal wins; Djoko about to, and I won't be able to watch #ohmylyfe

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 17:11 (nine years ago) link

Petra on now..

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 17:22 (nine years ago) link

Your predictable men's QFs and H2Hs.

(1) Novak Djokovic vs. (6) Rafael Nadal
(3) Andy Murray vs. (7) David Ferrer
(9) Kei Nishikori vs. (14) Jo-Wilfried Tsonga
(8) Stan Wawrinka vs. (2) Roger Federer

Nadal 23-20 Djokovic (14-5 on clay)
Murray 9-6 Ferrer (Ferrer leads 4-0 on clay)
Nishikori 4-1 Tsonga
Federer 16-2 Wawrinka (4-2 on clay, 1-0 this year)

lex pretend, Monday, 1 June 2015 17:32 (nine years ago) link

mad match if anyone is watching. the usual tiresome things that go on in Kvitova's game in full show.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 18:30 (nine years ago) link

If anyone is wondering why Kvitova was disputing that line call when she was 5-0 down and SP its because she needs to get going for the final set.

Just thought I'd clear that piece of psychology up for any novice to the game that happens to be reading.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 June 2015 18:35 (nine years ago) link

Petra scream <3

cerealbar, Monday, 1 June 2015 18:55 (nine years ago) link

& then gets broken (n)
