They've lost the first time in a tournament in round one since the Aussie Open 2001.Bryan Bros losing
Yep 14 retirements or walkovers so far are a big worry, i've heard a lot of players are taking some special tablets now.
Monfils playing within himself in a tight one with Ferrero. Gael is my favourite player to watch of the current bunch and I took 200/1 on him before the Tournament started.
JCF What a performance!
That performance showed exactly why he's out on 200/1. Incredibly flashy and rubbish player.

Djokovic vs Berlocq 6-0 5-0 after 45 minutes.............i feel sorry for him........anyone fancy Berlocq to get a game here?
Okay still no game for Berlocq (6-0 6-0 2-0) but we've seen some amazing points in the last minutes from both
And now Berlocq breaks Djokovic's serve
And he breaks Djokovic's serve again
Okay we haven't seen the greatest comeback ever.........Djokovic beats Berlocq 6-0 6-0 6-2.
Looks like Berlocq was a good sparring partner.
This got me thinking if someone ever lost 6:0 6:0 6:0.
Apparently there are plenty of them.

OK, just started watching. What the feck is up with Murray?
He's been poor. The forehand is so error strewn. 2 sets down but I think he'll win this.
Haase is a good player though. Almost took out Nadal at Wimbledon last year.

Berdych retires at 6-4 5-0 down vs Tipsy. This is getting ridiculous now. Retirement number 18 or 19?
What's happening there, food poisoning again? What are they eating?
A lot of these players have fallen ill and many are getting injured.
Even at Montreal and Cincinnati there were loads of players struggling. Infact around 15 of the top 20 have suffered from some illness/injury after Wimbledon.

Yup, betting on tennis is a mugs game at the moment.
Yet another retirement. Grannolers vs Ferrero. I'm lost for words now
10 male and 8 female retirements.
And next year will be worse due to the Olympics having to be adjusted as well!

Fed won the first set 6-3 but loses the 2nd 6-4 vs Cilic.
Cilic is a pretty dangerous opponent and has been playing very well.

No doubt the ATP + WTA calendars are too busy, but when i see a player like Petkovic plays with a tear in her meniscus since the start of the tournament than it's no surprise she has more injuries in the future.
I'm actually more surprised that so many players are ill.

Wozniacki is through

Nalbandian is playing some seriously aggressive tennis out there vs Nadal.
Nalbandian with the early break and leads 4-3.
I honestly don't really expect Nadal to win anything for the rest of this season. I don't know what sort of impact that Wimbledon final had on him but it's almost like he's forgotten how to play tennis at times.
He's not had one good match in the US in the last month.
