Djoker is cramping and down a break in the 4th. Stan closing in on the third piece of the career slam.

Great call on this. Stan is really moving Novak around on the court because he can sense his cramping.

Very disappointing that Novak resorted to the MTO tactics. Be very interesting to see the reaction if he wins

I'm surprised Stan didn't complain more, to be honest.

Stan and Kerber, exhibits A and B as to why we can't give up on Genie or Milos as long as they're willing to fight. Stan's late career development in particular might be the best we've ever seen. But they've both found a new level after the age of 28. Congrats to Stan, my goodness it's a joy to watch him at this level, the most punishing groundstroke player ever.

If you could combine the Del Potro forehand with the Wawrinka backhand and the Raonic serve and the Djokovic flexibility, you'd have the perfect tennis player.

Congrats to Stan! He's just a Wimbledon title away from a career slam. That's pretty cool.

back to the grind after US Open.

What are Canadians up to?
Raonic injured
Pospisil, Dancevic, Nestor, and Shapovalov are in the Halifax for Davis Cup on Friday
Diez is in Menkes CH
Polansky and Bester are in Cary CH
The rest are in Toronto 2 Futures (including Siguoin)

AA has the week off I think.

I know Felix has played a lot of tennis over the last couple of weeks and is likely running on fumes, but it would have been pretty cool to see Felix and Denis out there playing doubles for Canada in Davis Cup action.

She can always fall back on a career as a model. I'm not sure what her next steps are tennis wise. She is going backwards yet again.
