Tennis: US Open - sick as a small hospital

[JaneJeffer]

I couldn't resist, it's something we say in Ireland, sorry

it is a bit^^ Ice

Oh my pointy things are back again

When Stricker takes his cap off he looks completely different

Tennis back on the other channel now, it’s Hijikata-Zheng.

And Foe finally on!

Well done Foe!

Stricker is 2-1 up

Well done Dominic. He's great to watch.

He's going to celebrate by having some chocolate

Well done Dominic- wonder whst he will add to his play list?

I woke up and saw that Djere was about to go 2 sets up against Djok.

I'm just glad I am not listening to any commentary. Djok is now 3-0 up in the 3rd. He's still going to win, isn't he?

I woke up and Djokovic was 2 sets to 1 down, so I've decided to watch, even though it's obvious he's going to win anyway. Still, tiring him out a bit can't be a bad thing...

I'm so happy Alcaraz v Evans is day session tomorrow. I was sure it was going to be night session (thought Svitolina v Pegula would be too, to be honest).

I’ve just watched the end of the Djokovic match. Hopefully the late night and a 5 setter will tire him out a bit…

Why couldn’t Djok just lose like a normal human? Hopefully he’s exhausted.

He’s not a normal human Ice - at least he’s been pushed - hopefully his next match will be a day one in the blazing heat (but it probably won’t be!)

I saw a bit of Stricker - he is definitely from the Stan mould with his agricultural physique - hope he enjoys his chocolate

I hope that Dan doesn’t get demolished by Carlos later - Jack Draper and Cam Norrie are also playing at a similar time - not sure why they put all the Brits on together!

DH will be pleased with that Saturday evening line up

If you’d told me Stricker was Dan’s long lost love child I’d have believed it, they definitely look related.

Look who's landed in NYC 🥕

Holger and Patrick Mouratoglou have parted company

Yay the Carota boys! That’s interesting about Holger - maybe his Mum’s going to be fully in charge now

Daniel makes me laugh!

I'm sure Holger said he was splitting with Patrick, months ago.So is it official now?
I LOVE Daniil- I really hope he's on good form as we need back up to oust Djok .

I'm torn by the appearance of the Carota boys- I wish Jannik wasn't playing Stan .

Feli looking very nice, chatting with Annabel. I'm really looking forward to her being on Strictly..

At the moment, Sky (sans app) are only showing matches on one channel again- which is annoying. Rugby is on the other one, again. I was hoping that I would get to see Carlos at 5- but it's Mmoh/Draper on Grandstand at 4- so they will probably stick with that.

They seem to have turned down Laura's mic.

@Raahh, the guide says Alcaraz v Evans at 5, so it looks like they're switching over. Hopefully another channel will switch to tennis and take over Mmoh/Draper at that point so I can keep checking in on that.

Looking at the times, the 'second' sky sports channel that is available is showing other things (Rugby/boxing) until 7pm, which happened yesterday too- but a bit later on.

I would be surprised if they took off the Mmoh match to show Carlos- but they might .

Daniil seems to play better when he is being the villain - he’s been having some arguments with the crowd already so hopefully he’ll be in good form and beat Djok

Maybe Carlos/Dan will trump Jack Draper but who knows with Sky

Fizzy the Sky coverage has been all over the place, and it's impossible to settle into a match that starts now, without thinking they will take it off.

I would rather watch Carlos than Jack though- sorry Jack.
