    It was the 182nd-ranked Antonia Lottner. Also holy shit, Tara Moore recovered from a 0-6 0-5 match-point deficit to beat Jessica Ponchet: https://www.bbc.com/sport/tennis/47871628

  • and fed's through to the quarters.  took the 3rd set in a tiebreaker at 3.

  • Pocket Rocket is hanging ‘em up. Helluva career for what she had to work with.

Lol. In his last eight tournaments, he's won just six matches.

Fed serving to force a third against Coric, killed Sousa earlier. 

Coric has consistently been a tough opponent for Federer. Especially last year, when he knocked Federer out of Shanghai and Halle (two of Federer's favourite surfaces).

Ridiculous that they're cramming two rounds into a single day. Tough on older players like Fed.

Boom. Federer's through to the QFs. Should be interesting to see if he can make it any farther than he did in Madrid, his draw is a bit nicer this time around.

edit: Coric won 107 points to Fed's 95, lol. Fed coming through in the clutch.

shoot, just got back from lunch and barely missed it.  glad he's through though.

ATP hit Kyrgios with a significant fine. Roughly ~10% of his 2019 earnings so far.

Forgetting Serena, who we knew would quit, that is still a # of GS champs. 

Nadal picks up where he left off with a crushing 6-4, 6-0 win over Verdasco.

He's lost just six games in his last three matches combined.

 

Might have been our last chance to see Fedal on clay! Too bad.

Never, ever go to Nadal's forehand with your approach shot. It doesn't end well.

 

Goddamn what a passing shot. Looks like we're getting Djokovic vs. Nadal tomorrow.

 

Nadal bagels Djokovic in set #1! Looking completely unstoppable right now

Terrific rally ends with Djokovic botching a smash into the net. Nadal on the cusp of victory

Rafa’s bakery was open for business today. I’d still say Djoker is the second favorite for RG with Thiem a close third.

Andy will come back primarily in doubles. 

Quote

Former world No. 1 Andy Murray has all but ruled out playing singles at Wimbledon this year and said he will focus on doubles when he makes his comeback from hip-resurfacing surgery.

The Scot has not played since his first-round exit from the Australian Open in January, but said last month he was finally pain-free after the operation and planning to return to the ATP tour.

Murray, who will get a wildcard for the Queen's Club Championships in June if fit, told the Times that playing singles would be a step too far given the state of his rehabilitation.

"It's not enough time," Murray, 32, said. "I'd say there's very little chance I'd play singles during the grass [season]. Potentially doubles, but I'm not trying to get ready for singles. I've only just started moving now."

Murray's older brother, Jamie Murray, has ruled out playing the men's doubles with the three-time Grand Slam singles champion at this year's Wimbledon.

Murray has started training since the procedure and hopes to emulate doubles veteran Bob Bryan, who successfully returned to competitive tennis after a similar operation.

Bryan, who cut his season short in 2018 to have surgery and returned to the tour this year, was the one who advised Murray that surgery could improve his quality of life when the Scot was thinking of quitting tennis.

"I don't have pain," Murray added. "I just need to see how good the hip can get really. I know from seeing what Bob Bryan has done that for doubles it will be absolutely fine. I'll need to see from there how it would work singles-wise.

"If I continue to feel good then I will obviously give it a shot in singles and see what happens. In doubles I'm pretty certain I'll be able to play, just based on having an example to look at."

Looks like Zverev may be over his slump. He won Geneva

First title of 2019 for Sascha. He saved two MPs, but his play was shaky throughout. He'll need to up his game for Roland Garros.

Rain in Nottingham washed out the first two days of the ladies’ grass warmup tourney, so they’ve had to resort to playing indoors on hards in front of zero spectators. This is the #1 seed looking like she’s playing a nothing college match. 

 

 

Whoa. The ATP just announced they're officially recognizing Laver Cup matches!

 

I don’t think I agree with that. Count the matches going forward, sure. But to retroactively say those exhibition matches actually counted is absurd.

Nottingham played their first outdoor grass matches today, 5 days late.

Two pretty decent ladies’ draws this week. Hopefully the rain doesn’t fuck with Birmingham too much.
