#3 Radwanska is out. #5 Kvitova is out too. The highest women's seed remaining is #4 Halep. #7 Sharpova is still there but the last 16 of this tournament is totally wide open.

#18 Bouchard plays #8 Kerber tomorrow

It's the same.

Isner and Stephens still alive.

you got off easy betting on frenchmen

Senator Clay Davis · 06-01-2014, 03:33 AM

Well it was worth staying up just to see that first set. Best I've seen Genie play by far, that was absolute domination.

Senator Clay Davis · 06-01-2014, 04:02 AM

6-1, 6-2 in 52 minutes against the world #8. Yeah Genie is gonna be #1 sooner than later.

KootenayFlamesFan · 06-01-2014, 04:49 AM

I'm up this early and missed the match

Great to see her do so well!

killer_carlson · 06-01-2014, 07:41 AM

Wow.

Just watched some of the pst match interview with her opponent. Said she felt good going in, and is fine physically. Said she couldn't get in the match (mentally) once it started. Standard tennis interview, all about me, etc etc. but her body language was a different story.

She looked shell shocked and her body language was clear that she just got her butt kicked, and badly.

Tennis is funny. Genie took her Swedish opponent lightly last round and squeaked through the 1st set.

Today she was up for it.

Milos is starting!

Gulbis' interview after defeating Federer was pretty endearing. He told the crowd, "I'm sorry."

Stakhovsky did the same at Wimbledon last year. No one really wants to beat Federer.

Good to see Milos up a break in the second set, looking to take a 2-0 lead. Hopefully he can close this out!

Antithesis · 06-01-2014, 09:45 AM

And now Milos is up two sets, up a break in the third.

Senator Clay Davis · 06-01-2014, 10:04 AM

Milos has 212 winners in 4 matches...just rolling right now. He's got as good as shot as anyone not named Nadal of beating Djoker.

Mango · 06-01-2014, 10:08 AM

Another historical day in Canadian tennis!

Machiavelli · 06-01-2014, 10:26 AM

First Canadian male to get into the Final 8 at a major, he just said!

Fantastic job, Milos!

killer_carlson · 06-01-2014, 11:11 AM

Awesome Milos!

Antithesis · 06-01-2014, 11:14 AM

Well done, Milos! A few short years ago, anyone who claimed there'd be two Canadians in the quarters of a grand slam would have been ridiculed.
