Interesting...

A ball girl was treated for heat stress during a morning match, and the tournament shortened rotations for the ball kids to 45-minute shifts.
Players used metaphors and anecdotes to describe how hot it was.
"I put the (water) bottle down on the court and it started melting a little bit underneath -- the plastic. So you know it was warm," former No. 1-ranked Caroline Wozniacki said. "It felt like I was playing in a sauna."

Sometimes a hot breeze stirred the air, making things worse, said No. 13-seeded John Isner, who retired from his first-round match with a right ankle injury.
"It was like an oven -- when I open the oven and the potatoes are done. That's what it's like," Isner said.
Two-time defending champion Victoria Azarenka agreed.
"It felt pretty hot, like you're dancing in a frying pan or something like that," she said after advancing to the second round.

Canadian qualifier Frank Dancevic said he started feeling dizzy in the first set of his match against Benoit Paire and then collapsed in the next set.
"I couldn't keep my balance anymore and I leaned over the fence, and when I woke up people were all around me," he said. After receiving medical attention, he returned to the match and lost in straight sets.
"It's hazardous to be out there. It's dangerous," Dancevic said, criticizing the tournament for not having suspended play. "Until somebody dies, they're just going to keep playing matches in this heat."

But, the great, the almighty Roger...

Perhaps the only player who isn’t affected by all this is Roger Federer. The 17-time Grand Slam winner remarked: “Depending on where you come from, it has a bigger effect on you, this type of heat, than maybe humid heat,” Federer said. “So it’s very personal, and it can become just a very mental thing and you just can’t accept that it’s hot. Just deal with it, because it’s the same for both.”

The arrogance of this guy never ceases to amaze me. I really admire his tennis career, no doubt he's one of the best ever, but with his personality, I just wanna punch him in the face. All he does is look out for himself, I don't think he ever stood up for somebody else.
