Is he playing with an injury? I'm trying to get my 4 year old to bed and I can't watch.

Before your time and maybe not the biggest upset of all time, but pretty shocking when it happened...

He looked like he had one of his thighs taped earlier in the match, but the strapping has been removed.

Edit: Correction, the strapping is still there - At any rate, his movement hasn't been the issue, his timing for whatever reason seems very off tonight.

BVDZ needs one hold of serve to send Carlitos packing.

He has to show what he’s made of and break him.

He did play excellent tonight. Not sure if that loss to Novak at Paris is still bugging Charlie, but he just hasn't looked that great since losing that match.

Hard courts are arguably Carlitos worst surface. I could see him pick up RG and Wimbledon on the regular while Sinner (fitness permitting) could clean up AUS and US.

That's one less guy that can eliminate the domestic abuser, that dude winning a grand slam would almost be as bad as the Oilers winning another Stanley Cup.

Dang it. Was hoping to watch the Zheng match, but it looks like it finished fast! Happy to see she advanced!

Tennis is sort of on the backburner for me today with the tragic passing of Johnny and Matthew Gaudreau. I will just say that Ben Shelton and Big Foe are going five sets as I type.

Ruud and Sheng are going at it right now. I don't believe a chinese male has ever made it this far.

Yeah, though Michael Chang is Chinese, though his citizenship is American.
