Belemans mentioned in his post match interview that Bernie didn't look right on the court today and wasn't running like he normally does.

That pitiful effort will be in tomorrow news big time

Yep. Tank Engine type headlines. That last set only lasted 19mins!

Kokkinakis vs Bolt could go to 5 sets if we are lucky.

Genie serving at 6-3 5-2 to qualify for the main draw. I expected a tougher match.

EDIT: She held. Waiting for happy interview

She has a bit of a spare tyre I must say.

Well done to Bolt

 

[Firestarter]

Bolt, JPS and Kubler in the men's draw. Solid.

 

[juice t]

That’s so Bernie

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

Great to see Bolt, J P Smith and Kubler qualify but Thanasi Kokkinakis, where is he at?

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

Istomin on grass is a yuck matchup. Who ****ing knows what he'll throw out there.

 

[Hamingja]

So dirty with the draw. Had a few futures and they have all lobbed in the top half of both the men's and women's draws.

 

[pepsi]

Top half of men's draw plays Monday, bottom half plays Tuesday.
Bottom half of women's draw plays Monday, and top half on Tuesday.

Some very tough opening round matches,
Gael Monfils vs Richard Gasquet
Stan Wawrinka vs Grigor Dimitrov
Dominic Thiem vs Marcos Baghdatis
Andy Murray vs Benoit Paire
Daniil Medvedev vs Borna Coric

If seeds were to play to their ranking this would be the round of 16 matchups.

Federer-Coric
Querrey-Anderson
Cilic-Raonic
Isner-Dimitrov
Thiem-Djokovic
Kyrgios-A.Zverev
del Potro-Goffin
Schwartzman-Nadal

Halep-Mertens
Ostapenko-Kvitova
Muguruza-Kasatkina
Kerber-Garcia
Pliskova-Venus
Goerges-Stephens
Svitolina-Keys
Vandeweghe-Wozniacki

 

[Gigantic]

Wait, how did Bernie get in? lol

 

[pepsi]

Wait, how did Bernie get in? lol

If players in the main draw pull out at the last minute, then losers in the final round of qualifying can gain a spot.
There are already 5 lucky losers in qualifying who have now earned a spot in the main draw.

 

[matt_897]

Overall, not a bad draw for the aussies although Nick's is tricky first up but Istomin hasn't been the same for a while. Don't know what curse Ducky has got but anyways. Shoulf be a fun couple of sleepless nights to see jow they go.

The women have got dome some brutal draws. You can lock first round loss for daria

 

[danstar]

How the %$#^ does tomic get a spot they should have overlooked his spot and gave it to kokkinakis at least he will try. In before tomic loses in 65 minutes in the opening round

 

[red+black]

Unlucky 32nd ranked but unseeded Cibulkova has #42 Alize Cornet then #22 Konta then #15 Mertens.
