Tennis: US Open - sick as a small hospital

[JaneJeffer]

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

If the roof is partially closed how come there's still a shadow?

It's a bit strange, Jane- maybe it's the position of the sun/time. Djok started his match at bit later, so maybe by then, closing the roof take away most of the shadow (because there was none at all when they played).

This match seems to be going the same way as the Coco/Jelena one did.

Yes very one sided

Zheng has avoided the bagel at least.

I think Brad's advice to watch the girl's match instead was correct

Well done Aryna

Daniil looks so serious today

Aww, Tim. He really wants Andrey to win.

But I think it will be Daniil.

No. Don't show us Jonathan Overend! He freaks me out, he looks nothing like he sounds.

Feli has disappeared for food apparently.

And yes, why is everyone wearing white??

Feli is back!

I'm torn on this match- I don't really mind who wins, I'd love Rublev to get to the semis- but I think Daniil has a better chance against Djok, if they meet in the final.

Ooh!

I know Raahh but Andrey just tugs at the heartstrings

Glad that Feli is back - although I think he’s with Johanna and Jonathan!

I don’t really mind who wins - I agree I think Medvedev has a better chance of beating Djok but Andrey is so sweet

The McDonald’s ad with the eyebrows really annoys me - it’s even worse at the cinema when there’s no escape! (I think the heat is getting to me!)

Fizzy it's such a daft advert. Makes you wonder how they thought it up.

Naomi Osaka!

I don't like it when Andrey gets stressed- and we get the 'sad puppy' face.
He must have been a nightmare child to say no to!

Victoria doesn't look too happy. No hugs from her

Rublev had a good tart- but first blood Daniil then.

tart?? start.

This keyboard is driving me mad.

No Victoria didn’t look very happy!

Rublev lost a bit of a focus there but well done Daniil

I see what Feli is saying, but I think it's wrong of players to ditch doubles late on because they are doing well in singles. It never seems fair on the double player who misses out.

I hope it was a gluten free tart

Why did Andrey get up so early?

gluten free

Yes it’s tough with the doubles - I always feel bad when a partner gets dumped

The conditions don’t seem to affect Coco and her last match was quite easy - maybe Feli is just thinking about his 40 something self
