I hope it will rain during Sharp-Cake and that it will ruin Sharp's momentum this time. Fair play, Mother Nature!

Elsewhere, obviously Wuss lost the second set TB. He led 5-2, lulz. I thought Azza was really warm and praising toward Sam after the match. She looked like she appreciated the battle Sam put up. She was. It was just funny she spoke of hoping Sam would miss, considering Sam shanks a lot most of the time.

I hope CAKE wins but given their history it's going to be a blowout. I'm going to sleep now.

So relieved that potential hideousness at 3-0 was averted. Cake continues to zone. But rain, now.

Why does Gasquet-Ferrer even have to continue. Wuss should just Tomic it right now, to help keep the schedule going.

I'm sad for Sam. That was a major chance ... I could be wrong but I thought she could have run around the second-to-last shot she hit. I think the feet froze with nerves and she wound up having to hit a backhand.
But that is by far the closest she has ever come to beating Azarenka, so it was a good performance anyway. But noooooo, now the worst possible result will probably happen.
Except there is another chance. CAKE. It's all we have left. She can beat Aza and she's in flying form so far. I think she can do it. I believe!

Neil Harman â€@neilharmantimes Sharapova-Bartoli match postponed for the day, Bartoli leading 4-0. Still hoping to finish Ferrer v. Gasquet (75, 76, 43) on Armstrong
So they haven't cancelled the night session, hoping to haul in a 2nd bundle of ticket-cash for that match. USA! USA!

So Delpo broke back for 4-5. Thank God for line-call challenges, because a ball that was way out, that is by a few inches not just millimeters, was evilly called good in Andy's favor.

Well that was fun while it lasted. So bizarre to see them stop for rain at the very time rain is also pelting down here in BCTT. Andy, JMDP and I are sharing this rain moment.
