Better chance of pulling off the upset - Vasek or Leylah who faces Elise Mertens? I'll take Leylah.

Line robots seem to be a bit quicker on the call than last slam. A bit more natural now, other than many of the voice recordings are really casual sounding. So this is it then right, we’ll never see human line judges or towel slaves at a large tournament ever again?

I heard last night that it's the recorded voices of first responders that are making the "out" calls (a nice touch).

I watched some highlights yesterday and was caught off guard by the robo line callers.
I feel like that in a couple years we’ll laugh at the times we had lines people, and feel the old way was archaic and decades in the past.
Can you believe they used to have actual people on every line to call the ball in and out??

And no one to hit in the throat with a ball or tell them you're going to shove the ball down their throat

Good point. This move must be devastating for throat doctors and specialists.

Not only that, he lost match point getting dinged in the head by Di Minaur, retaliation for getting body blasted by Sandgren earlier in the match.
Now that’s how you perfect the revenge!
