Go everyone I like.
Of course the matches I care most about will take place while I'm struggling at work, and will also surely be moved to Courts 17 and ZZZ.

I hope the Muzza-Wussy match is a cracker. And would it be too much to ask NaNa and KvitKvit to hold onto their sanity for a little while more?

Also, surely Kvitty and Kaia will be moved to another court or Day 10. As long as Queen Maria gets to complete a comfortable victory today. I have a bad feeling about this Zakopalova match.

Do you have to replace the cat's role of lying that you think Mashabot will lose.

Someone has to fill those shoes!
But on a serious note, while she is the favourite I certainly don't think this title is a foregone conclusion like many people seem to think. Petra or Na can stop her in the semifinals. She should win it in theory, but with all the top players struggling in these conditions yesterday she could have problems. And Zakopalova did knock out Seles from a Slam back when she used to be Koukalova.

Aren't all women QF tomorrow on Tuesday? Why they'd put their matches last?
Why Maria's match is basically 2nd when her next opponents is 5th? WTF is this scheduling? The same for the other future QF.
Aren't they supposed to be scheduled to 'start' at the same time?

Wow. Kanepi and Kvitty really got screwed with that schedule. Of course after Queen Masha made her displeasure known last time, they aren't going to be putting HER in that position ever again. Ali being the cat. But I don't think even the cat would try it on when it's Kooky Klara we're talking about, Ali!

The same for the other future QF. Am trying to figure this out, too, but clearly, they're just not concerned about the disadvantage to the 5th ones.

Well, his game is just as effective against the scrubs.
I give him a better chance than everyone else, like 10% or so.

At least the center court schedule looks like it might work out okay after all. Thanks David.

I just hope Muzza can play through his injury and the pain. I'd hate to see him retire.

Almagro takes out Tipsarevic in straight sets. Pretty routine and straightforward day so far.

Ah, Tsonga got a grip on his nerves just in time. Too bad he couldn't have come right out and polished this off, but at least he's back in it.

We'll see how long this match lasts now. BTW, apparently women QF for this half will be played on Wednesday. When did they change their scheduling tradition?

None of it matters now, as long as all matches get in today.

JWT gave his break back before winning that? God.
He really should have a shot at Hobak, who is just...not playing well. But he's such a dummy, I don't know if he can take advantage. But I guess he's a FIGHTER111!!!!! as well.

Yeah, he is a dummy. Don't know how he managed to close this one out after letting it get complicated, but he did. To me, Stan looked like the better player, but what good did that do him.

So will ESPN2 now show Maria warming up, or will we get to see a bit of Delpo before I have to switch to livestreams?
First just talking. No Delpo.
