I'm in class and this is the first break I've had. Did Wawrinka blow that second set or did Novak take it? Cannot believe Stan could be up 2-0, he must be en fuego again.

I see Novak breaks to start the 4th. Hopefully this takes 3 hours more so I can see the end.

Novak leads 3-0 in the fourth set, it's going quick. Hope you make it to see what's likely going to be a grueling 5th set.

Also, Wawrinka got a 1 pt. penalty for drilling his racket into the court but made it worth while and ripped the racket apart and snapped it over his knee, crowd loved it!

I love what Stan's done this tourney, but I cannot really cheer for him to make it to the final just so he can get ripped a new hole by Rafa. Nole is the only way that Monday is going to have any drama at all.

That said, I want Djoker to earn it with crazy play, not Stan imploding like he used to.

Gasquet has a chance!

Well too bad for Wawrinka, great run and even though I want a Nole/Nadal final, would have loved to see Wawrinka stun the world. Nadal appears on his way to a routine win.

so they keep mentioning "Tornado" Alicia Black and how she's tearing up the junior tourney, therefore I had to look it up:

http://msn.foxsports.com/tennis/stor...ly-buzz-090513

Quote:
It’s too early to tell whether they’ll be the next Venus and Serena Williams, but two young racket-swinging sisters from Boca Raton, Fla., are already taking the tennis world by storm.

Fifteen-year-old "Tornado" Alicia Black and 12-year-old Hurricane Tyra Black have unconventional names — Hurricane’s is her legal name; Tornado’s isn’t — and you better get used to them, because the sisters are climbing up the junior tennis ranks.

“They wanted us to be tennis stars so they picked storm names,” Tornado told the New York Post of her parents, Sylvester and Gayal. “I used to hate it because a lot of kids made fun of me, but now I’m getting used to it. I like it now.”
them plus Sloane Stephens, Victoria Duval, Madison Keys...I know we're not supposed to play up the Williams sisters race card inspiration story too much, but boy if Tornado and Hurricane can actually become the next WTA stars well...pure genius. then I'm going to wait for someone to raise some brothers to dominate the men's side and name them Earthquake and Typhoon.
