I don't hold grudges, and I do take your PM's seriously, just you actually wound me up so I needed to say something.

Del Potro breaks. If he doesn't hold now.

Del Potro takes the first set.

Just got in and they're waxing lyrical over Delpo.

Why is this crowd applauding an easy slice backhand miss?

Because they're all fucking idiots.

Has there been any crying babies yet?

Yep.

Fed manages to hold despite playing like a clown in that service game.

I'm going to put money on Murray to win the US Open.

Murray beat 2 of the top 3 in one slam, really?

Edit: Presuming Nadal's fit and gets into the last 4 of course.

I didn't say it will happen did I? It's gambling Danny.. it could happen, he's good odds plus done well v Novak on the hard courts in Australia, plus with Novak Rafa and Rog winning one each, he could win the fourth slam.

Federer is making me vomit with his tennis right now, his serve is keeping him going though.

Federer.

Serverer saving Federer.

Fed will break here now.. Delpo surely can't hold after being so close to serving for it and Serverer arriving.

Fed takes the tb and pulls through the second set playing some of the worst tennis I've ever seen him produce, typical of a big boy, will probably sweep the third now.

Del Potro kinda bottled it in that tb as well, that missed forehand and the long backhand. Good defending from Roger in the tb though.

This crowd is ridiculously annoying.. how did you put up with it Robyn?

Kirilenko form is worrying.

Seems like most of the annoying people are towards the back where the ballot tickets will have been allocated.

Didn't stay on the main court for too long either, spent most of the time on the outside ones which were pretty empty Tomorrow will be a different story though.

You're going to watch Serena trounce Kirilenko 6-0, 6-0.

At least get some good pictures of Kirilenko.

Guys, what have I missed?

Federer playig shit and being a set down, managing to pullthrough the second now they're playing the decider.

Maria v Maria about to start now.

There's about 50 people watching Lisicki's mixed doubles match and I think about half of them are staff.

Maria defeated Clijsters 6-2, 7-5.

Fed has missed more volleys today than I've seen him miss in his career.

Crying babies in Maria's mach.

I think Court 1 is the official Olympic creche.

Federer is pushing here to try and win, unusual.
