I've been following the scoressince about 2.30. Sadly Thiem lost to Rublev 9I like Andrey - it's a shame they had to meet so early, it's time Domi got a bit of break). It was a very straightforward win though.
Aart from that, all results as epected- Muguruza lost to Mertens, which is a shame, I'd have liked to see her have a good week.

Lovely Matteo has levelled his match at 2 sets all against Murray.

Sascha in a bit of trouble- 2 sets to 1 down against lucky loser Varillas, from Peru.

I have lost the ability to type- I have just been defrosting my car Grin

The roof is on at Laver. Which could favour Djok, if that situatuation remains. (don't think he's really going to be in trouble though- despite the strapping and 'hamstring' worries.

Just watching the Murray/Berrettini match - Murray needs to hold his serve to stay in the match - 5-4 in the 5th set - eek!

Fizzywinegum · 17/01/2023 07:34

Ivan Lendl looks like he’s ready for bed Grin

Fizzywinegum · 17/01/2023 07:49

Tiebreak!

Fizzywinegum · 17/01/2023 08:09

Wow! Well done Andy! Poor Matteo Sad

Just hope that Murray can recover in time for his next match (Kokk or Foggy) - he can hardly walk Sad

Mo’s little moustache is a bit strange Hmm

Raahh · 17/01/2023 08:15

I had to take ds to the station. I dont like the 5th set tie breaks. I feel very sad for Matteo. Sad he got really unlucky with injuries, and catching covid just before Wimbledon. He needed a good run here , after getting to the semi final last year, because his ranking will drop even more.

Not sure how the Sacha match will end up- it's in a 5th set, but it's even at the moment. Varillas is not giving this up without a fight.

Just jumping in as I do this time each year. I have tickets to rod laver tomorrow night so will see the Radacanu Groff match. So pleased. Also it will be cooler for the next few days.

Fizzywinegum · 17/01/2023 08:41

Sounds good Startup! I saw that they had to have an extreme heat break in the Dan Evans match as it was 35 degrees - phew!

I’m now watching the Zverev match - he’s got match point

Don’t think I’ll bother watching Djok later (unless it looks as if he might lose!)

Fizzywinegum · 17/01/2023 08:45

Well done sascha!

I should go and get dressed now or I’ll end up spending all day in my PJs watching tennis … it does look very cold outside so I might just do that anyway!

Looks as if Rafa's got another early match tomorrow - about 3am UK time so I probably won’t get to see him unless it’s an epic match

Raahh · 17/01/2023 09:23

I have been up since 6, have ferried various people around and walked the dog. He was meant to be going to the groomer- but her pipes have frozen- so he gets a reprieve until Friday Grin Watching Ons but I don't think i will bother with Djok. I've got Vera to catch up on from Sunday Grin

Fizzywinegum · 17/01/2023 09:38

Definitely Vera over Djok Grin

Raahh · 17/01/2023 09:43

it's no brainer, Fizzy Grin

IceandIndigo · 17/01/2023 09:47

I’m super happy for Andy, although I like Matteo too and it’s a shame they had to meet in R1. Haven’t been able to catch much else today, saw a bit of Taylor Fritz’s match, he had a few wobbles but came through in the end. Bedtime here now, definitely not staying up for Djok.

Raahh · 17/01/2023 09:53

I've just realised that my mate Casper has still got a match to play- he is going to end up being on very late, the Bencic/Tomova match has barely started.

Was pleased to see Rune had a straightforward win- I am predicitng big things for him during this year (I've junxed him, now, haven't I ? Grin).

Raahh · 17/01/2023 09:59

I didn't realise that play is suspended on the outside courts- heavy rain, apparently.

JaneJeffer · 17/01/2023 12:10

Don't be jinxing my boy Holger Raahh!

Well done Andy. I didn't realise he was even there! But now I'm annoyed I won't get to see Matteo.

And well done Sascha. Sounds like it wasn't an easy win.

@StartupRepair hope you have a nice time. It should be a good match. I think Coco will win.

Wow! Well done Dan for surviving that Grin

Djok looking for "supplements"

ChessieFL · 17/01/2023 12:53

Really glad for Andy but disappointed for Matteo. I really like both players so was very torn on this match. I hope Matteo can bounce back from this and still have a good year.

The weather there sounds bonkers, first play suspended for extreme heat and then heavy rain!

Raahh · 17/01/2023 12:56

Jane Grin

I'm watching the Ruud match- his opponent looks wiped out- Casper is looking very smark, in black and lilac.
I assume Djok is not having it as much his own way in the second set, if he is sniffing around for his supplements...

JaneJeffer · 17/01/2023 12:58

Beautiful Maxime's match against starey Albert got interrupted. I wonder if they'll be able to finish any of the outstanding matches. I've lost track of the time in Australia.

I'm struggling to post today. I've lost about 3 replies so far. Probably give up in a bit. Grin

Raahh · 17/01/2023 13:31

ooh- Machac has taken the 3rd set.

Doesn't look like Carballes Baena will have the same luck.
