Oh no, Andy is cramping badly.

Edit: Now the physio is visiting Stan. Getting old sucks and I know it more than most lol

Edit 2: Both guys getting treatment.

You're not in Cincinnati?

US Open is quite fun, I've been once.

I wish! Although I did see one random Bengals jersey there

That's one thing I will critique Nadal, who picks Cincy over Montreal. One is a world class city the other has a turkey drop.

Cam Norrie (who plays the winner of Stan vs. Andy) is enjoying the fact these old guys are playing three hours in the heat and humidity.

Bad combo when you're not playing great and your opponent is playing lights out. Leylah's serve has gone missing today, but looking a little better here in set 2.

Leylah was up 5-1 in set 2, now it's 5-5. It's really about who makes the mistake first.

Edit: Alexandrova serving for the match at 6-5 in set 2. Unbelievable turnaround greatly aided by some poor play from Leylah.

The set scores read 6-4 7-5, but that was some really bad tennis from Leylah today. She was up 3-0 in set 1 and 5-1 in set 2 and lost both sets.

Well, that was a pretty good performance from Denis tonight winning 7-6 6-3. Dimitrov is not the same player he used to be, but Shapo did a good job reigning in the power tonight and keeping the ball in the court.

Just finished watching Tommy Paul destroy Jenson Brooksby 6-3 6-2. Brooksby is not going to be a serious contender until he fixes his serve, he doesn't get any free points with that powder puff serve.

Neither took care of business in round 1.

She played a doubles match with Kayla Cross a couple of days ago and they won that match. Great to see Genie back on court.

Didn't Andy Roddick offer to and actually work with him on the serve after last season's display? Hard to imagine a pro wouldn't have learned a thing or two from someone like Andy.
