Any chance Carlos Ramos will be in the chair for the Genie - Serena match?

I dunno who the ump will be, but my TV's gonna have to be on mute. Serena's first match was boring so I wasn't going to watch long anyways, but I barely lasted 15 seconds before Chrissie started talking about how if she ran into Osaka again, there would be no way Serena would lose this time, because she doesn't lose to the same player twice.

it's at least on par with Quinn and Remenda doing an E=NG broadcast, possibly even worse at times.

The best thing was during the second set and the start of the 3rd set, 4 times they zoom onto his brother in the crowd .... and he was on his phone texting every single time. He knew. He knew before the match started. Another match for Milos!!!

I'm with you Jack, that was cringe worthy commentary from both Chris' (Fowler and Evert). All the chatter about how Serena was wronged and how unfair it was and nothing about how Naomi Osaka's first grand slam title was overshadowed by some pretty poor behavior from Serena.

dash, you're being too nice. It was an abomination of poor sportsmanship. How can the broadcasters who were there forget the image of that young lady on the podium, crying, with the crowd booing as she's trying to accept her first Slam?

An iconic moment forever ruined. Just thinking about it makes my blood boil

But, I digress. Actually...I wonder how many times they are going to bring up Genie's lawsuit?

Melbourne time - subtract 6 hours from MST, and it is tomorrow. Or, add 18 hours.

Calm Kevin Anderson has gone off the rails. Up a set and 41 he lost 5 games in a row to dump the 2nd set.

And just saved break point to start the 3rd.

Also, McDonald won a 11-9 2nd set tiebreak to even things up against Cilic.

Why is Tiafoe taking a long break between sets with all the momentum?

Hes the anti-Nishikori

Anderson looks like he has an arm or wrist issue.

I'm surprised Stan and Milos aren't a night draw.

Djokovic/Tsonga is the better draw for the night match.
Repeat of the 2008 final.
