God could Basil get any more embarassing. Surprised Courier hasn't flogged him with a tennis racquet.

Yes lol I thought i mis-heard that
Scheduling is bizarre as is the telecast deciding which match plays on 7 - 7Two, and witching them over when one match finishes arghhhh.
Rafa having trouble putting this guy away.

Nadal is boring me, so I switched to 7TWO and Martina Hingis is playing in a double match. Was never a huge fan of hers (preferred Huber) but she is still a remarkable, highly intelligent player, even in her mid 30's, and I think would be more than competitive in singles.

Sela is actually hitting some nice shots in this set
Both Aussies on RLA? Possible. But I'm guessing Nadal and Tomic.

Well when I was there on Monday I didn't appreciate them. My heart sank when I realised I would have to put up with them all day as I was watching Aussies.
Love his answer to what percent are you playing at haha
Could be done. Kyrgios late day match leading into Tomic at 7pm?

Why the * are they showing the interview?
Spent the day at the tennis with a ground pass. Potentially could've been a great day, but was mainly a frustrating one. 11am on sc3 was Dimitrov v Bagdhatis with a 1.5hr wait to get in, managed to see sets 3-5. After that match everyone raced to Hisense for the Murray match. Like others have mentioned there were people everywhere. CBF with another wait so went over and watched the men's doubles on sc2 with Hewitt playing. Made the trek back to Hisense to try my luck again, arrived at the start of 3rd set and managed to get in for the start of Groth v Tomic game. Game was a bit of a fizzer. Finished the day off back at sc2 to watch the rest of Anderson v Gasquet.
Anyone else have problems with long waiting time at Hisense in previous days? The pass-out system is a bit of a joke as well.

Djokovic vs wawrinka Nadal vs murray = Djokovic vs ? Depends on how Nadal physically recovers and develops his game. Otherwise Murray will pounce on him I reckon. If I was pushed though I'd say Djokovic vs Nadal final. With Djokovic winning in 4.

Yep sounds about right but Nadal's form is just so......
, he could play himself into form though
Don't think Nadal's fitness is good enough at the moment to get to a semi he has missed so much tennis. Hope he proves me wrong though.

Yeh he's rusty but to be fair to him in that 3rd set I thought he started to look tired and wasn't power through the ball with his legs. Like he was doing the first 2 sets. He'll be better for that match. Djokovic biggest challenge I think before the final could be Isner. If Isner plays lights out which wouldn't be the first time against Nole. He could present some problems for him. I think if he plays Stan in the semis, he gets revenge and puts a beat down on him.Yep sounds about right but Nadal's form is just so......

Yep no doubt, Raonic would be another Djokovic would like to avoid. With the way Stan has played it wouldn't surprise me to see him get thrashed by Djokovic. Especially that serve.....

Yeh I reckon we might see Nole give Stan a breadstick in one of the sets,if they happen to play each other. Raonic could be tricky, but Novak seems to have his number. He much prefers returning Raonic's second serve compared to Isner's, which kicks up like a mule.

Most people who left for drinks/toilet around us spent an eternity trying to get back in and often told "Once you leave, can't come back...
". Only saw the 10min pass outs being spoken about prior to Tomic game which I didn't stay for. Seemed pretty chaotic today, much better value on Showcourts.
