It’s an absolute joke. Here’s a crazy, crazy idea. If you’re going to have 2 day session matches, and you’re truly concerned about late finishes, start morning session at 11, night session 6.
yeah. the excuse of 2 Day matches is just that.

We all love late finishes, but tennis matches are taking longer and longer. If this went/goes 5, we are still looking at a 2am finish.
Not many will stay for that, or watch the last match. I am concerned about tomorrow night with Garcia/Osaka 2nd on RLA. I want to watch that one yet I do have work tmw.

RLA was empty for 3 hours today........Why???. Arent those your big paying customers.

The coverage is non stop on nine nowadays. It wont be the end of the TV rights deal if it started the nigth session earlier. That would then excuse the 2 day matches

Craig Tiley annoys the hell out of me. I can't stand some of his decisions in the last 5 years.

After the deportation saga, he should not have continued in his role at TA.

Do they basically pick what they consider to be the marquee match of the night between the two for the 7pm prime time slot, whether it's the men or the women?

Idk. I don’t usually have an issue with the US Open crowd. Hardly see anyone getting kicked out of them either. Maybe I just watch the wrong matches?

Been to both actually luckily been to all of them. Night session with say Tiafoe or whatever can get very rowdy!

yeah, they do now. Barty was always first on for example.

Back 7-8 years ago, 90% of the time the womens match was first. Think Venus v whoever before the Hewitt Baggy match.
