interesting, I could have sworn his lifelong dream was to be loved and respected as much as Roger and Rafa...

I don't think it'll happen while all 3 are still playing at the same time, but in my opinion Djoker's legacy will trend upwards after they've been retired for a while, and the memory of his sometimes questionable beliefs/decision-making fades. when that stuff is eventually forgotten and what's left is the raw career numbers, he'll probably be looked upon as the consensus goat.

Fed's first match back will be against Dan Evans on Wednesday (not an easy one).

Lloyd Harris just sent Stan the Man packing in Doha 7-6 6-7 7-5. Definitely the biggest win of the young South African's career.

Genie has forced a 3rd set in her match as I type...

That's a pretty nice win for Genie considering the jet lag she was battling in travelling from Lyon, France on Sunday to Guadalajara, Mexico. 3-6 6-1 6-3 over Caroline Dolehide.

Shapo wins in straight sets 7-5 6-4 and will face the winner of the Fritz - Goffin match.

Watching the Federer - Evans match and Roger is looking pretty good thus far. I find it interesting that he's wearing a different shoe today (no longer wearing the Nike Vapor X). I tried a pair of Nike Vapor X and although they were comfortable, they provided very little support and I think caused me to have some ankle issues that I'm finally getting over.

That's right, I'm blaming the shoes, not the fact that I'm older than dirt.

A vintage Roger backhand passing shot gives him the opening set in a tie-breaker (10-8 was the tie-breaker score).

The new shoes are from a Swiss company called On. I think I read that Federer has an ownership stake in the company too. I don't know if the RF logo reverts back to him tho.

Roger breaks to win the match 7-6 3-6 7-5 - A beautiful backhand down the line seals the deal.

Is this tournament being broadcast on TSN?

Have to imagine if Shapo plays Federer they will put it on TV
