Isner now up 5-2 in the fourth. The Swiss must have really deeply questioned whom their choice of a fast and extremely high bouncing clay court would benefit more: their players, or 6'10" Isner, who can routinely hit kick serves above head level.
There it is. A second break for the set 6-2. Nicely done Fed. On to the events that really count I guess.
Tsonga with the relatively easy point for his country as expected. Now Canada's hopes are hinged on Raonic winning his match. There's very little chance that Canada will be able to come back and win 3 straight matches if Raonic does indeed lose it.
Damien Cox is speculating that Milos may play doubles with Nestor becauae Vasek isn't playing great tennis and because his confidence is down. I like that idea.

So representing his country doesn't really count, I guess??
Federer down two sets to one to Isner.Terrible court, crazy bounces. Dropped the second when he played one error-packed game on serve and dropped the third in a tiebreak.
Because Federer lost, I presume?
The majority of Davis Cup courts are unpredictable, prepared just for the tie. This one wasn't really any different, you expect weird bounces and unusual happenings.

Predictable response. The fact that you're only showing up to troll now, and that the match started at 4:00 AM in Eastern Australia tells me all I need to know. I watched both singles rubbers yesterday and the unpredictable bounces were atrocious even if it is a makeshift court. Yes, it was in general one of the highest bounces I've ever seen and if you've ever watched Isner you know he doesn't need any help to get kick on his serve. No, Davis Cup doesn't really count. I don't even have to explain that.
Anyway, high marks for John for a great match. Low marks for you for more subpar trolling.

Ah, let the poor guy troll. He's like an alcoholic and Roger is his scotch. At this stage, I don't think there is much that he can do about it even if he wanted to.
Sportsnet1 is showing the Sui/US doubles right now. 1 all with the third set just under way.
Thanks, but no. God, I suppose that I will have to watch the Canadian doubles match, though. I'll ask my partner to strap me into the chair and glue my eyelids open. Four people on a court at the same time is unnatural, possibly evil. (*sigh*)
