Australian Open Day 5

[LukeParkerno1]

5 sets in this weather

Yikes!

 

[BobbyMorri]

Cornet is injured might have to retire

Mertens will win this in under 40 mins if she doesnt

Mertens wont be down to Hobart next year if she performing like this

 

[JackNah_8]

oh god. 15 deuces forr Edmund/Basilashvili in this 2nd game of this 4th set. Edmund finally breaks after 20 mins.

poor guys

I walked by that court, it was like an oven. Awful

I'm staying undercover in MCA from now on.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Svitolina should be winning this

 

[LukeParkerno1]

In watching the Edmund match

It’s sooooo hot!

 

[BobbyMorri]

Cornet Mertens 4 all....okay..didnt see that happening.

To think, this time last week, Mertens was playing in 10C in a cold and wet Hobart. Cornet played in this heat before. I doubt Mertens has.

 

[ItsGameTime]

Who is Basilashvili and how come I have never heard of him? I want him to win this one.

 

[BobbyMorri]

These guys are warriors. Fair play to both for playing for over 3 hours with no shade and just oppressive heat.

 

[Me Myself and I]

Tough day at the office for Mertens today. Still has doubles later on with Schuurs against Barty/Dellacqua.

 

[Lotus]

Who is Basilashvili and how come I have never heard of him? I want him to win this one.

I want Edmund to win .

 

[pepsi]

Edmund and balishvilli both deserve to go through. It is oppressive, unbearable conditions on court today. Thev have been out there for nearly 4 hours.

 

[Scholz Supremacy]

Young gun Marta was in the deep end today. 40+ degree heat and against one of the worlds best but I look forward to having her around for the next 20 years.

 

[BobbyMorri]

They have no chance in the next round

 

[Scholz Supremacy]

No idea how Edmund and Basilashvili are doing this.

 

[ItsGameTime]

No tie breaks in this set either.

 

[Scholz Supremacy]

How good are Ukrainian women?

 

[BobbyMorri]

A lot of people are at Hisense away from the heat. The commentators are asking for a review on the heat policy. I had my say earlier but surely the current policy is not best for business or health. Surely today is the day they change it for future years.

Well done Kyle and Basilashvili.

 

[ItsGameTime]

Edmund just won. Good job.

Unfortunate for Basilashvili but good try.

 

[Lotus]

They have no chance in the next round

Their next opponent also play in the similar condition. So it'll will be a fair game. But yes, I wish them all stay healthy.

 

[ItsGameTime]

Dasha is one of Australia's best tennis players at the moment.

 

[BobbyMorri]

Cornet is up and down, up and down emotion wise. Not a shock there.

My stream went down but she is suffering from the heat. dizzy and collapsed is what I am hearing.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Dasha is one of Australia's best tennis players at the moment.

Lol

Says a lot about Australian tennis then

 

[ItsGameTime]

Lol

Says a lot about Australian tennis then

It does. They just played her recent tantrum with the umpire again.

In other news, Rublev about to play Dimitrov. Come on Rublev! My prediction is Rublev in straight sets.

 

[chickenonachain]

Stuff the wet bulb call the tennis off way to hot

 

[Arbuckle]

FFS; Mertens-Cornet dumped for mixed doubles with Stosur and Groth?!?!

I hate Ch7 sport so much.
