I agree.

Not Tendulkar though. He pisses on every Tennis player in history tbh.

Apart from the legendary Bhupathi and Paes

BBC :doh:

On fourth round monday, they'll still be repeating U2 while Nadal v Del Potro and Murray v Gasquet are on.

They have had a shocker all day.

F1 on BBC 1 instead of Tennis :doh:

I think Federer and Nadal were both playing then but we had to miss out on one cos they had to show some cars going around in a circle

Set point for Djokovic.

Deuce.

No, Nadal's match finished before Federer's started.

Auntie needs a long rest tbh.

In that case, we missed out on Serenas match.

Not so bad after all

BBC :bow:

No Djo wins the first set

Tie-break in the third set in the Almagro v Youzhny match, also known as 'The Battle To Decide Who Will Be Pummeled by Federer On Monday'.

No live football is the biggest shocker they have had.

Wimbledon and Eastenders are their shining light tbh and Wimbledon is only on for 2 weeks.

Thank god for Eastenders, carrying a whole broadcast channel on its shoulders

:lol:

First signs of the WUMing genius returning.

Two break points for Djokovic.

Both were saved, he has another one now though.

That's saved also.

Adv. Djokovic again.

Baghdatis eventually holds, 1-1.

Baghdatis breaks and leads 2-1 in the second set.

A horror game there from Djokovic

Tomic won the 2nd set.

Soderling will have to come back from 2 sets down again

Have to agree really, Tennis is such a physically demanding game, I consider myself to be quite sporty and active but Tennis is one game I've never been able to get to grips with.

Ferrer won and will face Tsonga

Youzhny 2 set to 1 up v Almagro

Malisse took the first set on a tie break v Melzer

Llodra 2 sets up v a pub teamer

Great point that. Can understand Djokovic beating the shit of his racquet though. :lol:

Djokovic is serving to stay in the second set.

Baghdatis to serve for the second set.

Djokovic saves the first set point, another one to go.

Baghdatis takes the second set 6-4.

:popcorn:

Now this is what you call Saturday Evening Entertainment. LWT :pal:

Tomic serving for the match

Tomic wins 6-1 6-4 7-5

A shock but worth noting that Soderling wasnt well

That won't stop News International. "This makes it easier for Andy"...

Youzhny won

4-6 6-3 7-6 6-3

Just 2 more Round 3 games to be completed.

Malisse 2 sets up v Melzer

And the one on tv

Break point for Djokovic.

Deuce.

Adv. Djokovic.

And he gets it. 3-1 he leads, in the third set. That was a great game.

Looks like Malisse is through

5-0 in the 3rd set.

Melzer serving

Malisse won 7-6 6-3 6-0

He faces Tomic i think.

Baghdatis is serving to stay in the third set.

And he does so. Djokovic serving for the third set at 5-3 up.
