Well...that would suck. Tonight's my ticket. Delpo is a warrior how he battles through mid match injuries, but this is why the guy may never climb to the summit again. Big dude that's held together with duct tape and chewed bubble gum.

Ballbasher Gulbis just beat Murray in straight sets!

Vasek loses the 2nd set 6-2. Looks a bit deflated.
Needs a reboot in the 3rd set.

Can't believe Berdych was trying to get away with that cheap underhand serve while the ump was talking. Classless

Great match. I honestly thought he'll lose after he missed that easy forehand at *4-3 A-40 in the decider and then ended up losing his serve. The crowd really pulled him through.

I heard them mention that on the broadcast but missed it, what happened exactly? Ump was talking to Pospisil and Berdych served?

I did some rough calculations, Vasek is now ranked #54.
He will play the winner of Davydenko-Bogomolov Jr.

If he wins that, he'll be #40.

Ump was saying something to the crowd I think, it was in french so I didn't catch it, and as he was talking Berdych lobbed an underhand serve over the net with no one noticing, then wanted the point from it.

Even worse. Ump was giving Berdych a warning for slow play and Berdych quickly served underhand then turned to the ump, "see? that fast enough for you?"

Nobody likes Berdych so that was a sweet win.

I dunno what Lubijcic did, but milos serve return looks so much more reliable. Delpos not putting much heat behind it, but not long ago Raonic could barely keep the ball out of the stands on return. Great start.
