Schwartzman is playing unreal, Nadal had to go to another level to close out that third set.

Yeah, that was Diego's chance to really put pressure on Nadal as he wasn't playing all that great in set 3, yet Rafa rallies late to take the set 6-4 and leads two sets to one.

This looks like a different Diego in set 4. Hopefully Nadal can put the hammer down here and move on to Friday.

Rafa broke Diego's spirit in the 3rd set and then it was smooth sailing to a bagel in set 4.

These guys can only play unreal for so long and by Set 4, the tank is empty.

she is the heir to the guns throne previously occupied by Sam Stosur. I started referring to her as Crossfit Rey lately.

Djoker had a grand total of zero unforced errors in the 2nd set of his match against Berrettini.
Edit: Sorry, it was zero until that final game (I think he made a couple in that last game).

Well, we need a 4th set as Berrettini takes set 3 in a tie-break. Djoker was two points from victory and just crumbled with two unforced errors.

This is taking forever, hopefully they give the players a warm up like a rain delay.

Ah yes, the French Open, the red-headed step child of the grand slams.

Just a second rate major all around. Make Indian Wells the fourth major instead.

Djoker just took a nasty spill and may need some time for a change of attire.

You guys are English-biased but Winbledon is the bigger mess. They couldn't even hold the tournament last year. Not sure how they will cope this year. Always rain and scheduling problems. And who wants to watch big servers on grass (and I'm a fan of big servers). They start the men's semifinals at freaking 1pm. And then because of that they put in a stupid 5th set tiebreaker that Federer loses in the final.
French Open is tradition, they've changed nothing.

I mean I know you're being you Girly, but Wimbledon is by far the biggest event on tour in terms of global engagement. The French is generally ignored and features the least exciting tennis we see every year. If it were well run then whatever, but adding being the worst run event on tour to it all just makes it the bastard child of the majors. Throw in the typically awful attendance and it's basically a 250 event that gets to be called a major, because "tradition".
