I hope Peter can at least avoid the bagel in set 2.

Edit: Fed misses a pretty easy overhead smash and Peter is on the board in set 2.

I was digging Peter's hat, very slick. New record streak of consecutive set wins for Fed with the victory. Four more sets to reach his age.

All of a sudden, Monfils catches fire and he and some guy in Montreal are going to a 3rd set.

Feel confident in saying Monf winning a major would be one of the most popular wins ever. What a man.

Delpo doesn't challenge as he is down to 1 challenge, the serve from Denis was out, both the linesman and the chair missed it, game to Denis.

Some guy served for each of the 3 sets and got broken all 3 times. Lead 5-2 in the 2nd set and lost 5 games in a row. Led the 3rd set tiebreaker 6-2 and lost 6 points in a row.

This isn't a top 10 player. This is Simona Halep.

Denis is serving for the match after breaking Delpo in the 11th game of set 2.

Darn it - Delpo breaks right back and we're going to a tie-breaker in set 2.

Four in a row. Look at this rally. Holy crap.



That is devastating for Nishikori.
