[Doctor/Lawyer Red Devil]

Ouch, cramping.

Did you download it on your computer!?

True but oh well we had to play a bad match eventually. We will beat CSKA next week

I was given a link of the full version (with a bug) a few months ago, unfortunately that link has expired due to inactivity.

Damn well if you can find another link for it can you please send it to me on private message

 

[Charlie]

Novak would improve if he borrowed Pliskova's or Serena's serve right now.

 

[swordtennis]

Djoko breaks into the lead 5-4. Medy not looking too steady on the legs.

Looks like Nole should pull this out now.
However yes that right arm is chronic and he might be in perma decline.
Question is does he have enough left in that arm and enough mental strength left to bag a couple more majors?
Also with these top 5 just one big clutch win can pop them out of their coma.

 

[Doctor/Lawyer Red Devil]

He retired, 2-0 for Serbia after day 1.

Speedy recovery, Medvedev.

 

[Noleberic123]

2-0 for Serbia. Idemo momci!!

Hope Medvedev recovers quickly.

 

[Meles]

So... Djokovic is barely scraping past a guy who can neither move nor land shots on the court more than three times in a row.
And not only that, screaming like he regained the #1 spot in the rankings after breaking?
Come on...

No. Medvedev was actually impressive in the first two sets. Nole worked him over pretty well in the end with a lot of long rallies, so the cramps were coming.

 

[Gazelle]

What the heck is going on with Djokovic this guy's rapid decline is quicker than Rafa's.

The field has improved and caught up with him, overall level now a lot higher than in Djok's prime.

 

[helennnnnn]

1-0 to GB, straight sets win for Dan

 

[Gazelle]

Pff, Djokovic dropped another set to a far lesser player. Does this guy not have any pride? He's still number two, number one not long ago. Play like it or retire.

Give the guy a break! He still won and he will be back strong soon enough!

 

[Emperor of Belgrade]

Hopefully it's the same as last year when he suffered in the Davis Cup and then went on a good run in next tournaments.

 

[Coolio]

This is pi$$ poor from Kyle Edmund right now. Pospisil is playing woeful these days and he's injured and Kyle is still struggling...

 

[The Green Mile]

Damn, Simon meant business. Looked very sharp against Nishioka. Grew more confident as the match went on, and played a bit more high risk tennis. So fun to watch. Backhand dtl was lethal.

 

[I Am Finnish]

Djokovic was awful
His serve is on a decline since wimbledon last year he was serving at 2009/10 level

He playing worse without becker he should dump the guru it is not working with him

 

[I Am Finnish]

Easy win from vasek I did not expect it

 

[jaggy]

Isner puts usa usa usa 2-0 up without looking too convincing.

First match rust for the retiring Djokovic. Peakovic RIP.

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Australia through to the QF already.
Thompson won in 3. Kyrgios won in 3. Groth/Peers win in 3. No sets dropped.

 

[Nostradamus]

Australia through to the QF already.
Thompson won in 3. Kyrgios won in 3. Groth/Peers win in 3. No sets dropped.

Why is Tennis channel filling the Air with this stupidest Jack Sock blowout match against no name Swiss............. Can you think of these fools that bought tickets in Alabama 6 month ago....thinking they will at least see Wawrinka or even Federer.....................????????????? LOL.....What a waste of ticket..... They should all demand their money back for false advertising.....

1-0 to GB, straight sets win for Dan

Dan Evans played a wonderfully solid match to extend his recent momentum. Very young Denis Shapovalov played an exciting but error-filled match. Straight sets to GB. Well deserved.
Vasek Pospisil played a wonderfully (and recently rare) solid match. Young Kyle Edmund played an error-filled, moderately nervous, match. Straight sets to the Canucks. Well deserved.

Exciting doubles match for tomorrow! Extremely top-notch Murray/Inglot against top-notch Nestor/Pospisil. Should be exciting!

 

[gogo]

Evans vs Shapovalov highlights.

 

[I Am Finnish]

First match rust for the retiring Djokovic. Peakovic RIP.

Peakovic is gone since wimbledon last year

More like primeovic/past primeovic

 

[jaggy]

The Canada-GB dubs should be a great one.

 

[Nostradamus]

The Canada-GB dubs should be a great one.

do they play Canadian doubles there ?

 

[stringertom]

Zed failure in the dubs fifth set.

 

[gogo]

Into a tiebreak is set 1 for the Brits/Canejuns...and the Brits take it.

 

[helennnnnn]

Now 2-1 to GB in the doubles after 3 tie breaks.

 

[jaggy]

Huge for Jamie and big Dom

 

[stringertom]

Safe sex USA having their way over the Swiss as expected. Up two sets.

 

[jaggy]

Team usa usa usa cruising

Russell Fuller‏ @russellcfuller
Vasek Pospisil is due to face Dan Evans first up on Sunday, but he's taking painkillers for a knee injury and says he's not certain to play

 

[Deki]

Croatia vs. Spain 2/1
Croatian B team Draganja/ Mektic won over F.Lopez and M.Lopez 3/2.

 

[jaggy]

GB in a good position but still a bit squeaky bum time

 

[Red Rick]

Darcis celebrating way too early there. Will eat 5th set bakery

 

[Red Rick]

Darcis celebrating way too early there. Will eat 5th set bakery

Scrap that. Steadies the ship just in time. Beats Zverev 10-8 in the 4th set breaker. Belgium through to the QF

 

[helennnnnn]

The Croatia v Spain 4th rubber is currently being shown on the BBC website.

 

[helennnnnn]

Canada up a set and a break in the 4th rubber, looking like it'll go to a 5th. Which ruins my plans for a nice relaxing bath before bedtime come on Dan.

 

[helennnnnn]

Evo takes the third set...

 

[JonnyMac]

Evo takes the third set...

Evo loses to Pospisil 3 sets to 1.... Goes to the 5Th rubber !

Shapovalov

V

Edmund

 

[gogo]

VASEK!!!!

Pospisil played inspired tennis....glimmers from the past. He had a let down in the third set and early going of the 4th set, creating an opening for Evo, but dug deep and found the energy. This should do wonders for his confidence, which has been absent for the past year.

Now to watch Edmund and Shapo.

 

[Doctor/Lawyer Red Devil]

Bye bye Croatia.

Fingers crossed both Djokovic and Nadal show up in the quarterfinal.

 

[helennnnnn]

Come on Kyle, you can redeem yourself here and save your team. 1 set in the bag.

 

[helennnnnn]

Uh oh. Disqualification coming up.

 

[helennnnnn]

Well GB were gonna get it anyway... Nasty ball to the face for the umpire. Poor guy, hope he is okay.

 

[marc45]

insane, Shapovalov drilled the chair ump in the head with a ball after the point...DQed...wasn't aiming at him, I don't think

 

[marc45]

here's the video...

[HipRotation]

Denis couldn't have nailed him better even if he tried

 

[gogo]

And...Canada defaults. Young Shapovalov lost his temper at his shot. He pulled a ball out of his pocket and hit it up toward the crowd. It hit the chair ump in the face!! Rightly DQ'd.

Holy ****. That would have stung. Hope he's alright. Wow, don't think I've ever seen something like that.
