It says a lot both about how much Shapovalov is improving and how Milos is falling off that this is such an even match.

And going back a few pages to Vasek's comments on pay - there is a lot of chatter from players lately about that. Wouldn't surprise me if we're only a couple years away from a unionization effort.

That was a great point by Milos to win the match. Good wheels to get to that ball and hit a clean winner.

I felt like Marge watching Bart and Lisa playing Hockey against each other during that match.

Hope to see them playing more matches against each other. 1-1 this year so far.

Milos vs. the winner of Dimitrov/Joker in a quarter-final match. That should be a doozy.

They would help each other's game practising with each other as Denis needs more help against players that have booming serves and also players that attack the net and Milos does both. Milos needs help with ground strokes in long rallies.

They get to chill out in the club house, before having to hit a yellow ball back and forth for a lot of money. Thoughts and prayers.

Rebecca Marino moves on in Vancouver with a nice 7-5 7-5 win over Yanina Wickmayer of Belgium (currently ranked #96 in the world).
