New TENNIS thread here! Montreal starts Monday at 5pm Sky sports 3!

[GameSetAndMatch]

Yipee! the Rogers cup. Live!!!!
lead up time to the US Open! Yay!

there is also WTA tennis on eurosport atm but i never seem to catch it live and when I put it on ita always Radwanska and Cibulkova match!.

Federer has withdrawn from montreal citing a back injury-rare for him.

dont know if rafas playing, havent heard hide or hair (or bum!) from him since Wimbledon .

and wheres Andy gone? must have finished his hols by now.

anyway cant wait for Monday!

And well done Robson!

Should move him up the ranking nicely if he wins this. I think.

Yay!Evans!

my live ranking update-y thing, is not very live- I reckon he'll go to about 156-ish . was 162 at the start.

If it's the live one I'm looking at it reckons it last updated at 17:39.

that's the one. But it hasn't updated his win yet. Get your fingers out!

Need Venus to get rid of Pipkins super quick, so Nadal can win his first match, and I can sleep easily. Of course, as she isn't seeded, it would count as a big upset. (though past form would dispute that).

erm. What's that funny symbol I seem to have created?

oh...it's gone....

Yeah, I had refreshed it a couple of times but no joy.

Not too quickly. I have a big stack of human physiology stuff I'm trying to read. I'm not sure it'll be an upset at all if she wins.

No, it won't be, really. Pipkins had a good run at Wimbledon, but got lucky I think.

I ought to clear up. i had an impromptu BBQ. Seemed like a good idea at the time

yay, I was right. Evans at 156!

Just got home, having takeaway so we can all sit down and watch the rafa match

I am going to sit and visualise the Rafa match

Will this help the visualisation?

ooh yes, Clay

That's a good start.

Break to rafa first game,
Lets hope this is nice and easy
Some amazing shots too

First set. Vamos !

Rafa off to a good start!

Vamos

Vamos, second set won.
