Milos plays Pablo Cuevas of Uruguay on Wednesday, they have met one time previously on clay in Portugal back in 2014 which Milos won 6-3 6-2.

Milos takes the first set 7-5. A little bit of controversy in that first set as a Milos forehand was called out and then was overruled by the chair umpire. I thought they were going to replay the point, but the umpire awarded the point to Milos. Cuevas was upset and rightly so and then lost the next point to lose his serve (he was up a break at this point). He then rocketed a ball out of the stadium and received a warning.

Not a good start to set 2, Milos already down a couple of breaks. Time to hop in the shower anyways.

Milos next faces Damir Dzumhur who ousted Tomas Berdych in three sets earlier today. He had an easy time defeating Dzumhur in Miami recently, but that was on the hard court. I expect a much tougher match on the clay of Monte Carlo.

I did a double take there, wondering how this guy had time to win a Hobey Baker, reject contract offers from the Preds, and defeat one of the greatest tennis players in history in the span of like two weeks.

Dzumhur will want to put up a better showing too, so he'll be motivated.

And amazing to see Djokovic out so early. Perhaps opens the path for Nadal to win a final 1000 level event.

Personally I think it was a silly rap, Meldonium isn't even a scheduled drug yet it's banned, A doctor buddy told me it's no more of a performance enhancer than insulin.

Milos survives again winning 6-3 4-6 7-6(5). Hopefully, that injury he suffered wasn't too serious (might have just been a cramp or something tightening up).
