So, NOW I have a big problem.
CBS coverage for the women's final was to start at 8 PM.
Now the Williams-Woz SF will be taking place then. However, that is scheduled for 7 PM.
Uhhhhhhhhhhhh is this SF going to be on TAPE?
Fortunately - HEY CBS YOU HEAR ME - I can stream it on the website.

Of course, the other SF won't be shown on TV at all, so...yeah.

CBS has coverage from Noon-10 on Saturday now. Don't be surprised if the local news is shown, and every attempt to ignore the 1st SF take place, though.

Did I get that right from Eurosport - Men SFs will be played earlier then Women? Even though Women play final on Sunday?

I really think the reason this happened is because the men bitched really loudly and they are more faymoose.

This tournament deserves a Kerber def. Wozniacki 4-2 ret. (tummy ache) final immediately followed by nonstop rain for next 5 days.

We're going to get a Kerber-type winner at a SEWTA Slam very soon. Would be absolutely fitting right here, right now.

I'm grateful for this schedule. I'll be able to watch Men SFs, and I really wanna watch them. And there's no need to stay up for the Women SFs since I don't care.

I can't believe I'm going to miss Silliams-Wozniacki. Laugh at this match on my behalf, please. I would, but my internet doesn't work properly. I'm stealing somebody else's, but this is Russia, so people turn off their modems at night. Or is that a thing that people do everywhere? I never do that, but I also know enough to password protect my stuff.

Our internet died last night. I think the modem has actually expired. So I went round to the neighbours with a sob story about being a writer on deadline and could they give me their password? (Not entirely untrue.) It worked

There are several in my building that don't use passwords. I don't know why, but I also don't care. It's not like they're paying for bandwidth, so at worst I'm slowing them down a touch by using it.

I did. She was also in those wedding photos with one of the Pole girls that got married. So, a final against Karolina would be fitting.

I just hope Serena/Woz doesn't get pushed too late. I am exhausted and will assuredly fall asleep early tonight. As for now, I have nothing scheduled except a vacant hangover stare into the middle distance.

Very isolated showers there now. As for getting play in, I'm not guessing anymore. It doesn't help that they have to wipe the court down forever.
