The Raonic-Fed quarter on grass should be awesome, their last match was really good.... dunno if it's even on TV but if anybody catches any word on potential broadcast time for the PVR I would be grateful.
Tennis Canada isn't sure about where it will be shown as of yet, but they say it'll start at around 10 AM ET.

that's gotta be one of those "planned" upsets where Rafa figures he could use the extra weekend to rest. well, not that fixed, but I doubt he was chasing down every ball like it was his last.
Fed and Milos on the other hand, have plenty of motivation to beat up on each other to try and gain momentum for Wimby. can't watch it right now but it's probably all short points, plenty of serve n volleying, and tiebreaks all around.

Yup and he's probably recovering from being drunk on Monday night and losing that $400000 watch.

turn those frowns upside down...pushing the old king of grass to 2 tiebreaks is progress. means he probably really only had 1 bad service game, but just couldn't get a handle on Fed's serves. but yeah, for once I'd love to see him not have to face Roger early on. how about putting him in Rafa's quarter for SW19, there's a little first week spice for you.
Tough to lose another three setter with a tie break to Federer, but Raonic looked good today. He was moving great on the grass, which bodes well with Wimbledon around the corner.
Did anyone else see this? Nalbandian was smashing his racket all over the place for some time before the incident during the final at Queens. What an idiot.
Nalbandian disqualified for kick
David Nalbandian is disqualified from the Aegon Championships final after injuring a line judge by kicking an advertising board into his shin.
It's one of the most bizarre things I've seen in tennis lately. It's up there with Roddick's foot fault outburst and William's spaz attack at the US Open a couple of years back where she told the judge she'd like to shove the ball down her throat.
During his presser, Nalbandian said he thought he shouldn't have been disqualified. I'm not so sure about that. He took the first set in a tie-break, so he wasn't exactly blowing Ancic out of the water. He lost all of his prize money too.
ETA: I just realized I wrote Ancic. I meant Cilic.
Nalbandian has always been a nutcase. If he had any brains he'd be a much better player than he is/was.
The Roddick foot fault outburst was awesome and justified. Roddick never foot faults, ever! He's always well behind the line doesn't creep up to the line when he serves like other players do. When he turned to the lady to ask which foot he foot fault, she had no idea. Then she tried just made it up and said it was his right foot (which was his BACK foot). I would have ripped that lady one too for not only making a stupid mistake but for then lying about it afterwards to protect her ass.
