I was also going to cynically ask, what's the point of playing all the games in between? Might as well play the Djokovic vs Federer final tomorrow.
Too bad Djok and Fed are in the same side of the bracket. Looks like Murray or Tsonga or Ferrer has their big chance to get into a GS final.

Could have sworn I looked at that and saw them on opposite sides of the draw.

Querrey takes out Raonic earlier in a nail biter!

6-7(3), 7-6(7), 7-6(8), 6-4

Earlier the US-NBC crew was chatting over the Nadal loss. Saying that putting the roof on between the 4th and 5th set really hurt Nadal. that doesn't seem like a good excuse to me for the #2 player in the world to lose to the #100 player in the world. They were both in the same situation.

Djokovic lost the first set of his third round match to Radek Stepanek, but then looked around and said - "OH HELL NO, this isn't going to happen to me too."



And took the next 3 sets 2,2, and 2.

Federer, trying to conform, also drops his first set, against Benneteau.

Federer just broke Benneteau in the 2nd set. Benneteau also took a tumble that did not look good...

Then Benneteau breaks right back and suddenly his ankle is feeling better.

Those 2 played an epic early round match at the US Open 5 years ago. I remember because I was there.
