Very impressed with Felix again today.
The fact he's serving so well and has only given up a total of 2 break points to a pretty decent (not great) returner on clay speaks volumes to his current level.

Felix keeps on winning. Probably gonna be disappointed to go back to hard courts for a couple events.

woot, Felix wins in straight sets, maybe a little lucky on match point as Ramos-Vinolas had Felix dead to rights, but hey, aggressive play often leads to errors.
Edit: Match point is below:

I don't think the ankle injury was very serious, Felix looked to be moving fine, I guess we'll know for sure on Friday.

Another win has Felix up to #56 in the world with the top 50 easily within reach at this event! I'm becoming more and more convinced that this kid could be in the top 30 by the time Roland Garros rolls around.

Rio final re-match is set as Djere takes out Jaziri in three sets after just over 2 1/2 hours on court.

Kyrgios just got a warning from the chair umpire for an obscenity.

Kyrgios is into the semi-finals - Takes out Nadal and Wawrinka on consecutive nights, that's no easy feat.

Oh man, Monfils doesn't challenge on a Tsitsipas shot that was way wide and as a result, he loses the second set tie-breaker. Going the distance in Dubai.

this this True Bounce camera review thing going to make its way into majors? it's kind of cool to see the real video alongside the rendering, but sometimes the two views don't appear to exactly align. it could be similar to the fears that having Hawkeye on clay would result in discrepancies between the computer's call and the court markings.

Is True Bounce replacing Hawkeye (or is a supplement to Hawkeye?) - I agree, the True Bounce as compared to the graphic rendering don't always seem to 100% coincide, but I think players just like the chance to take a closer look and will accept the technology telling them that the ball was in or out.

Wow, that was a great match - Tsitsipas is into the final in Dubai and will play the winner of Coric - Fed. Also, with that win, Stefanos will be ranked in the top 10 officially on Monday.

What a death draw Nadal received in this event, that Kygrios now inherited. On the other side, Zverev basically plays fodder the entire way until the finals.
Thankfully Kyrgios and all of his baggage has certainly turned this event into must watch tennis when it easily could have been extremely bland until the finals.
