Bronze medal mixed doubles match will have the world #1 Men's player and the worlds #1 Women's player competing against each other. Can't remember the last time that happened.

PCB takes the bronze. During the match Djokovic threw his racquet into the stands, and smashed it into the net. Something about PCB's play pisses off Djokovic, that's who he was playing at the US Open last year when he hit the linesman with the ball.

Bencic wins Gold, what a final set so many twists and breaks. First Swiss player to win Olympic singles Gold.

I gotta be honest, the racquet launch into the crowd is legit one of the funniest tantrums I've ever seen. Also worth noting PCB might be the Novak mental kryptonite because when Novak got defaulted at the US Open last year he was playing PCB.

Citi Open draw is out, Rafa is #1 seed and Felix is #2 seed, how cool would it be if they met in the finals. Shapo pulled out of the tourney.

Vasek played well today, but lost in straight sets 7-5 6-4 to Sebastian Korda. A couple of breaks of serve was the difference. Felix is currently in a battle with Andreas Seppi, lost the first set 6-2, but is up a break in set 2.

6-2 was the set score du jour today, Seppi won the first set by that score, Felix won sets two and three by the same score. He will take on the winner of Tiafoe and Brooksby in round 3.

Several upsets at the Citi Open in DC - Felix has a chance to make a deep run this week.

Where has this level been from Sock the last couple of years, he's playing fantastic today.
