He's #33 right now with the points he has. He's guaranteed a seed without Nadal and whoever else above him is unable to play.

This is a throw away set. Also, my feed has died.

15-2 point ratio this set...but at least Milos comes back from 0-40 to interrupt the avalanche.

One early break shouldn't equal throwaway just yet.

Agreed, but I posted that halfway through the third game.
Is it really overcast at the tennis centre? And is this the noisiest place ever?

Here, too. I've got UB40 cranked up. Fits nicely. I just have to imagine palm trees in Cincy.

If there was a 100 meter dash among professional tennis players, who do you think would come last? I'm thinking Querrey, but I'm willing to entertain other possibilities.

Tomic! Or Karlovic... We see these players' lateral mobility tested much more than their forward mobility though.

Djoker vs Davydenko shouldn't be a problem for Novak

I remember when Wesley Moodie would play singles, guy was slow out there, good doubles player though.

Two breaks for Berdych secures the set and he gets to serve first in the third set. Dusk should be a great time for a big server, but it isn't working out that way for Milos right now.

I'll bet. Pylons can be good doubles players.

Not sure how many of you guys get the channel CBS Sports Network, but they are actually showing US Open qualies next week. I'm sure there will be streams online of their coverage you can find.
On 1-9 Tuesday, 1-9 Wednesday, 5-9 Thursday, and 11-1 and 5-7 Friday.

Love Berdych's chances in the third. Unfortunately.
