Going to have to stay up late to watch Tsitsipas - Fed tonight. Oh well, probably will be all fired up from a big Flames win over the Oil.

I will be flipping back and forth between Nadal v Byrdch and Flames vs Oilers tonight, and hopefully none of them are close

Petra Kvitova just dusted the young American Anisimova 6-2 6-1. Still, a very good tourney for the 17 year old, she has a bright future ahead.

Cliff Drysdale is more of a homer than Kevin Quinn.

I'll probably fall asleep for it so I'll call my shot now that Greek Yogurt beats Federer tonight.

Frances Tiafoe is up two sets to love on Grigor Dimitrov.

Dimitrov wins the 3rd set in a tie-breaker. I didn't see it, but Frances did have a medical timeout in that 3rd set, so he might be dealing with a slight injury.

Tiafoe was up a break in that set too. Can he get the mojo back?

Meanwhile. What is Berdych doing?

Earlier today, I was worried you might've jinxed us, dash. You're still in my good books

Even though it was their 3rd game in 4 nights, I felt really good about the Flames chances tonight. There's something different about this year's team.

lol - The serve clock is broken in the 3rd set of the tie-breaker between Rafa and Berdych. Doesn't matter, it's all over, Rafa wins in straight sets.

Berdych gets rattled so easily, great night with Rafa and Flames big wins.

Effing idiot fan. 12-11 for Federer in the tie break and a stupid fan calls "out" on a Tsitsipas shot that was clearly in and rattled him causing him to lose the set.

They have to kick that jack ass fan out of the stadium.
I still dont' understand why fans yell out anything when a player is ready to serve. Shut your effing face.

I got up to pee and caught the 2nd set tiebreak.

1 set all. This is going to go awhile.

Greek Yogurt certainly looks like a far more realistic choice as "the next big thing" than that fraud Zverev. For the sake of the future of the sport we should all root for a Tsitsipas/Tiafoe SF, sadly we'll probably be stuck with Bautista Agut laying down to Rafa instead.

why are you doing this

Since Fed had already declared Yogurt to be his unofficial son, that makes jumping on the bandwagon a smoother process. One handed backhanders 4ever.

Because it's basically standard operating procedure for a player to upset one of the big three and follow it up by dropping a bit of a stinker. Much as ESPN would commit suicide (or put in on ESPN8 The Ocho), I'd love the final four to be Medvedev, Coric, Tsitsipas, Tiafoe. But we all know how this ends now, Novak beats Rafa with Rafa "re-aggravating" an injury during the final.
