Yeah...It really shouldn't have even gotten to a tie-break, Felix threw in a howler of a service game and was up love-40 in a Ruud service game in set 2 and couldn't cash in. Onwards to set 3.

Ouch.
FAA had match point on his opponent's 2nd serve in that tiebreak but didn't get it done. Hope he has a big 3rd set in him.

Hard to believe Felix has a mixed doubles semi-final after this.

An early break for Felix in set 3.
Edit: Consolidates and Ruud is serving at love-3. Great start after losing a tough tie-break.

That's two match points that have come and gone for Felix. Serving for a spot in the semi-finals at 5-3 now.

I hope they give Felix some additional time to rest and recover because I think he might have to play in about 30 minutes if they're sticking by the original schedule.

Sounds like TSN will have the mixed doubles match as well which is great, I was thinking I would have to fire up CBC Gem to see Felix and Gaby.

Long time-lurker, rare poster, but logged in to say a big thanks to CofRed for his Olympic thread updates and organization. This is my go-to when I wake up and want to get a feel for what to watch and when.
This is the first Olympics that my young kids are into it, and it is pure joy to watch them with their homemade signs and flags cheering on the Canadians.
Speaking of, off to watch Summer in the pool, pumped for FAA to get through to the Semi's.
Thanks again CofR, you truly are the Olympic guru.
