Sock is where he should be happy I took Tsonga in my multi

This is Tsonga we're talking about, ballsy to call it already

 

[ChookMFC]

danstar, in a way I agree with it. I don't get it when there has to be absolute quiet when serving. I mean could you imagine a full forward asking for the crowd to be quiet as they prepare to shoot for goal.

1) It's so ingrained in the tennis culture to have quiet and lack of movement
2) It's a high-precision sport that requires utmost concentration. Imagine a crowd going bonkers and moving around as a snooker player or a clay pigeon shooter lines up to take their shot. Even cricket players get to have that white blocker thing down behind the bowler.

Heh.

True but Sock can barely hit the ball in the court

 

[ChookMFC]

Wawrinka and Tsonga are both having a heck of a lot of trouble closing this out.

 

[ChookMFC]

Troicki gets the break AGAIN! No such trouble for Tsonga finally.

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

Tomic v Tsonga a cert for Sunday night on RLA I hope.

Assuming Tomic doesn't flop today

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

Assuming Tomic doesn't flop today

I have no confidence in this

 

[Lotus]

What a shot from Troicki.

 

[ozgamer]

Evans will want it more. Needs more gambling money.

 

[ChookMFC]

This tiebreaker is something. And yet it's not on either channel.

 

[Hamingja]

Troicki couldn't get to his 3rd 5 setter of the tourney.

tsonga was a great price as was seppi nice odds boost to a multi

 

[Sempfys]

Tomic broken first game, lol.

 

[Hamingja]

Tomic v Evans is an interesting match up.

On class Tomic every day. On lead up form Evans has him covered.

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

Over the moon to have seen Tsonga win live at MCA.

 

[rippersnipper]

Duan with a different adidas strip here. Like it a lot

 

[BobbyMorri]

Cirstea is wiping Riske off the court at the moment.

So good to see!!

Oh and Bernie sucks.

 

[ChookMFC]

Cirstea is wiping Riske off the court at the moment.

I'm so happy to see her finally over her injuries and playing good tennis again.

 

[Sempfys]

It's hard to stay interested in a Tomic match, one of the most boring players on the circuit.

Gilles Simon has that title and he's not giving it up!

 

[Sempfys]

Good call but I still think Tomic has joint ownership... just the way he plays his ground strokes especially, no sense of urgency and half arsed.
