Sorry BB, I don't think so Seppi got anything special to beat DP, DP likely to blow him off the court with the likely score line of 6-3 6-4. thumbsup

Cilic vs. Melzer for me interesting, the odds on Melzer is quite high and we all know what Melzer can do and what Cilic is when things don't go his way. I would bet on this match more than the above match.

I have been very underwhelmed by the Olympic tennis event.

For me the grass looks longer on the courts and thus prolonging the rallies excessively. Again the rain is decimating the fixtures.

The grass certainly looks very different and it is horribly slippy. I thought it was playing very slow in the Fed/Falla match but Tsonga and Belluci were really hitting through the court so it all looked faster yesterday - would the roof immediately make that much difference?

I agree with you legend, the atmosphere is not really anything special. It completely lacks the buzz of Wimbledon - there don't seem to be so many people on the AELTC grounds moving from court to court, and the empty seats in Centre Court are a real shame. Just would never see Fed playing to so many gaps in the audience anywhere really, but unthinkable at SW19. Crowd a little better for Murray vs Wawrinka but it still lacked the intensity of Murray's matches at Wimbledon proper.

Perhaps it will all improve, but have been disappointed so far - very little big time atmosphere.

time please

Not sure what has killed the buzz TP. I don't think Wimbledon having such an event so soon after it's own showpiece has helped the cause. If it was held indoors, then maybe the buzz may have been much more different. I think the fact the same courts have played completely different does not bode well for organisers.

The grass looks 'sticky' and the Falla and Federer match it played like Paris indoors.

Someone get a Flymo out and shorten the grass!!

Once the match goes indoors the conditions change markedly...no air conditioning in the world can precent moisture building on the grass so it plays quicker. We saw that with Belluci/Tsonga vs Fed/Falla.

If the conditions stay wet and Fed plays indoors he'll be fine. However, there is a backlog building and players may have to play twice per day at this rate. Also, why arent they starting matches at 10am given the forecast all week isnt great? Come on guys, use your noggin's for a change!

But damned this British weather, Wimbledon is not meant to be an indoors event!!! furious

Chance would be a fine thing. I agree that we could see players playing twice or even 3 times with doubles in one day.

I bet Murray will be on Centre all tournament. I don't think he has to play 1 match away from Centre unlike Wimbledon.

I think Pironkova will win today. And Goffin hopefully.

Agree totally with the suggestion for earlier starting times. Weather favours the top seeds like Rog and Andy as they'll be safe under the roof.
Fed could be through to the third round today before some have played their first match. We could well have Queen's Club two-matches-in-one-day scenarios if the weather stays bad.

Any idea why so few of the Courts are in use even though there's a logjam?

I can only think of:

a. they aren't using Aorangi park for practice at the moment
b. so many players are playing doubles and singles that you can't get the matches out.

Oh, on another point apparently they have taped over all the names on the hand dryers to stop them getting free advertising!

Any other bright ideas?

There's a part of me wouldn't mind Fed dumping out and going to Canada fresh.

Now the Olympics have begun they look even more of a sideshow to the tour than I thought beforehand.

Caught a little bit of the Hewitt match earlier (he's never been the sort of guy I'd pay to watch, but all credit for past glories and for sticking around through his plethora of injuries). Made it past Stakhovsky in 3

Anyone notice this plonker-like habit he's developed of pointing very theatrically at the ball boy/girl for a towel, straight after a winning (or even losing) point ?

Like the 'c'mons' and his ever-dwindling band of crude 'Fanatics' in the Aus Open crowd .... no harm done I guess. Just very tiresome Rolling Eyes

Didn't see Monaco/Goffin but seems a clean performance from Monaco judging from scoreline OK

Phew ... bet that's a relief for the Beeb. Just as well ITV or Sky didn't get the contract Wink

Room for a 2nd set walkabout for so long as Benneteau can defend his serve, but looking good at the moment I agree.

Re BB's comment, I'd like to see Fed win this ahead of Canada because it's the one he hasn't got, he won't get another serious chance, and it would pretty much guarantee him staying at No. 1 until October when you look at the respective points that need defending between now and then of Fed and Djoko. Canada is just another TMS, he's already won it, and he'll get other chances to win HC TMS tournaments. He should be fresh for Cincinnati whatever happens, and he's better there.

It is a sideshow....when we assess Agassi's career none of us talk about the gold medal he won...nor will we about Nadal, or Federer if he won it.

I dont think it belongs in the Olympics anyway but thats a whole different discussion/thread!

How well did he do in Cincinatti last year? Can he gain a lot of points there? The surface suits his game quite well.

Fed got 90 points at Canada last year and 180 points at Cincinnati. He can improve on both, but since he's better historically at Cincinnati, it's closer to the USO in time, and he'll have more chance of being fresh for it I'd say concentrating there makes more sense. Also, Djoko's respective tally was 1,000 and 600, so there's no chance of Djoko eating substantially into a Federer lead (if there's one left after the Olympics) by even winning at Canada.

Provided the olympics goes well then I guess it's smooth sailing up to the USO and maybe afterwards too given how good Fed is indoors.

Watching Fed/Wawrinka vs. the Japanese pairing. Surprised to see all four wearing their own variant of team kit with the sponsor's logo more prominent than the national flat - except Stan has "Suisse" on his back.

Stan playing in the backhand court and Fed not particularly standing out except on service.

You wonder about Fed's motivation for the doubles given he's won it before and he'd probably rather save his energy and focus for the singles. Wouldnt surprise me if they lost tonight.

I like this match, just been watching for five minutes but some really good exchanges.

Much better than the usual doubles matches.
