I don't think Raonic has done well enough on grass the last two seasons to catapult himself all the way up to the 13th seed at Wimbledon? Maybe I'm mistaken but his Queens and Wimbledon final appearances in 2016 should coming off the books as of this year.

I doubt his meh grass performance last year is enough to substantially raise he seeding unless he goes deep at both events this year.

I believe they take your ATP ranking points then add 100% of your previous year in grass points and then add 75% of your grass points from 2 years ago. This is the site I was using to grab the rankings from:

Wow looking at that, I guess he's still in a great spot seeding wise for this year's event.

Roger is into the semi-finals in Stuttgart and will play the winner of Nick Kyrgios and Feliciano Lopez. Milos will face Lucas Pouille in the other semi-final.

Federer won his match in just over an hour.....the French Open final took 40 minutes to finish 4 games reminds me of this hilarious clip

A little while ago, I signed up for the ATP Media Tennis TV subscription package, it costs $19.99 a month, but you get unlimited access to all ATP tournament action plus you can always watch the match later in the day if you can't catch it live. I've had it for a few months now and I really like it.

bah...20 bucks a month, but SportsNet seems to carry all 1000 events, and sometimes some 500 ones if they don't have more important things to show. that leaves a smattering of 250 and 500 tourneys that I currently can't get but may be interested in if Roger or a Canadian is playing. I think for now I'll just rely on your free play-by-play until a cheaper option comes along.

Milos breaks Pouille in the fifth game of the opening set and eventually wins the set 6-4. Playing well again today.

Kyrgios takes the opening set 7-2 in a tie-breaker. Roger will have to go the distance.

Fed with an early break in set 2 (courtesy of back-to-back double faults by Krygios).
