@satyanash is conflicted on who to root for in today's Federer match versus Sumit Nagal. 

[spystud13 2371]

Genie out by 11:30 our time. 

[spystud13 2371]

Barty eats a first set breadstick. 

[Aleemay 304]

Genie is just bad

Berdych upset by the American teen

Brooksby is gonna be Baylor’s best player since Banjamin Becker.....assuming he doesn’t go straight pro

[perfectchaos007 6671]

Lucky Loser Little Lauren wins in straight sets today 

[spystud13 2371]

Believe she was direct entry, the LL is Lepchenko right above her on the draw. 

[spystud13 2371]

7-5, 0-6, 6-4 for Kiki over Angie. 

 

Women. 

[spystud13 2371]

Serena/Maria up next on ESPN2. 

[spystud13 2371]

24 minutes, that went well. 

[HouTex 1878]

What the hell is Serena wearing?

[spystud13 2371]

Catsuit v.2. 

[perfectchaos007 6671]

Sharapova is just ball bashing, which plays into Serena's game. Can't wait for Serena to (hopefully) play Hsieh in round 3. Hsieh will move her all over the place

This. Hitting it hard right at Serena is not the way to beat her.

[spystud13 2371]

Can we get to an hour? 

[spystud13 2371]

Nope, 59 minutes. 

[satyanash 14526]

Brutally one-sided so far...

 

[Kevin O’Shea 279]

Who’s this 18 year old Italian ginger giving Stan all he can handle? 

[satyanash 14526]

😍

 

[spystud13 2371]

Fed drops the first. 

[satyanash 14526]

That was the worst first set from Federer I've seen this year.

[gsoda3 3262]

Are you guys seeing this tall black ball boy? He's made a couple impressive grabs.

[satyanash 14526]

Federer's won 13 of the last 16 points. Up 5-0 in the second.

[satyanash 14526]

Everyone's saying the kid's name wrong. It's pronounced Nāgal, with the stress on the first "a". As opposed to Nadāl.

Also Federer's blown six set points on his serve O_O The mental block is real.

edit: fucking FINALLY

Rumor is he's going pro. Heard rumblings that he switched his commitment from TCU to Baylor because of the Baylor-Oracle connection allowing him to get WC's to a bunch of challengers. With  >$100K prize money, top 300 rankings, and now the USTA teen poster boy, there should be no need of those Oracle WC's.

[PittsburghTiger 6188]

The hype from ESPN concerning the Serena - Maria match was stupid. Maria has won two titles in 11 years. She was ranked in the 80s. Just stop.

[spystud13 2371]

Bianca v. our girl Volynets here in a few. 

[spystud13 2371]

Ali sends Garbine to the bar to hang out with Angie. 

2-6, 6-1, 6-3 

[perfectchaos007 6671]

Andreescu was too much for Volynets

Those were two rough kits.

Tsitsipas out to Rublev. 

[Reynolds Woodcock 4757]

Last night was pretty awesome. Weather was perfect.

[spystud13 2371]

What’d that ticket run? 

[spystud13 2371]

Caro ate a first set breadstick, would not surprise me at all if this is her last tourney. 

[spystud13 2371]

Gibbsy had 6 SPs to force a decider against Halep, Simona now serving for 4-5. 

[spystud13 2371]

And of course promptly breaks to play 3. 

[spystud13 2371]

Simona survives, Caro forces 3.

Like most people in those sections, they were given to me by our corporate overlords.

I’ll be there tomorrow. Prices are stupid.

[cafe society 2871]

My girl Sorana Cirstea playing at 5:45.  Potapova is a bad, bad girl.  She and Coco Gauff slugging it out early.

[cafe society 2871]

Potapova - Gauff looks like the future of women's tennis.  Both so young, both badasses.  They give no quarter, lightning bolts right on the margins,  geez.

[spystud13 2371]

Nice little comeback from Caro's breadstick. 

[cafe society 2871]

Yeah, espn+ not loading for me.  Fuck.  Did CaroWoz pull it out?

Thiem gone.  Nadal's half of the bracket now brought to you by Duncan Hines.

[spystud13 2371]

Kids playing 3.
