			Murray vs. Dimitrov coming up shortly - I could see this match easily going 4 hours.

			Hurkacz down 2 sets to Draper appears to be suffering from illness, just like Thiem yesterday. Looks like some bug is going around the US Open this year. Hopefully no one else gets sick

In Hubi's case, it could be just sheer exhaustion as he did play a five set match a couple of days ago,

			Altmaier and Zverev are all square at 1 set each.  Daniel, Leslie Nielsen (RIP) has a message for you.

			Draper wins in straight sets over Hurkacz and gets the winner of Isner vs. Mmoh.  Good chance for Jack to make a nice run at the Open.

			Altmaier played well, but Zverev advances in four sets.  Barring an Andy Murray epic comeback, it will be Zverev vs. Dimitrov in round 3.

			Isner just played his last match. Fittingly, he lost 10-7 in the super tiebreaker. 
 
In his career, he played a record-setting 829 tiebreakers.

Isner and Sock also lost in doubles just now in you guessed it a third set super-breaker.  Jack Sock is also retiring from tennis to play pro pickleball.

She's into round 4 and looking very sharp. She's in tremendous shape being a marathoner.

			I think EE posted earlier that Fritz is boring to watch, I agree and I'm rooting for the 18 year old kid Jakub Mensik (turns 18 today) to pull off the upset. 
 
Edit:  Three games in and Fritz with a MTO (could be blisters on his feet).
