Thanks :thumbsu:

Monte Carlo is a bit of an odd event because it isn't mandatory but hopefully we get some nice clay court tennis.

Coverage on ESPN all week.

Plenty of laughs in the first match being televised.

Fognini up 5-2 in the first set, Sosa cracks it with the ump and wins the set from there without basically losing a point.

Sosa then up 5-2 in the 2nd set and Fognini decides to start playing tennis again and wins the next 5 games.

Great to have the European clay court swing back!

First set of Goffin/Robredo was alright I watched the whole match but yeah really sucked in the second.

Hopefully tonight is better.

Enjoying this Seppi/Youzhny match

Matosevic got in as a lucky loser with Verdasco pulling out. Will get smashed by Cilic in a few hours.
Oh really cool that he snuck in but yeah Cilic in good form tough ask.
What time will that match start you reckon?

Going to start at 11pm, not a tv court though.
 
Somebody must of took one of Marin's legs after the first set, Marinko has been in pretty poor form lately. I fully expect marinko to lose though.

Anyone watching this Tsonga & Fognini match? Easy to see how he gets the nickname Flognini he is carrying on like an idiot. Complaining constantly to umpire and other stuff
 
Pretty easy all around for the big guys last night, Berdych was the one to be upset by an in-form Garcia-Lopez, although Tomas looked to be carrying an injury

Here's the OOP for the quarters tonight:

Wawrinka vs. Raonic
Nadal vs. Ferrer
Federer vs. Tsonga
Djokovic vs. Garcia-Lopez

The third match is the pick of the bunch.
