Del Potro so tired can hardly walk off court! "Get some rest" Isner tells him!

Let's hope the men's 2nd Semi Final has more opportunities

The tennisform site has a ticker that has match reports and all injury news. It is pretty expensive unfortunately.

An excellent women's final in prospect. Stephens has shown she's capable of fighting this week and that is a given from Ostapenko.
Expect plenty of heavy hitting and wildly erratic swings from the brilliant to the ball flying out of the court!
Opposing Stephens if she leads looks a viable option.

No shortage of opportunities in the first set (8 breaks in 12 games)

I love watching Ostapenko but her errors to winners is a problem. 8 break opportunities each but Stephens just more consistent.

This is the problem I have with WTA; the opportunities were there but the tick movement for a break is so much less than the ATP that
you really need a hold as well - fat chance with these two!

Men's Final. Zverev leads H2H 3-0. Their last 2 matches have been tight with 4 tiebreaks.
Zverev as the young, exciting player has great break back stats in all sets - unlike the serve orientated Isner.

Isner has looked very composed this week after a poor start to the year. If he could just sneak a break he could be hard to pin back.
Maybe Zverev maybe worth opposing if he takes the first set, but it should be an interesting clash of styles.

It’s the tennis equivalent of a wet Monday afternoon at Carlisle after the Cheltenham Festival with WTA tournaments at Charleston on the Clay and Monterrey (Hard). A real selection of flotsam and jetsam from the top 200 on display with Monterrey looking even more poor.

At Charleston the majority of players look opposable if they take the 1st set / set+ break and are at short odds.

However WTA 1st round matches are a nightmare with motivation and fitness to be taken on trust – caveat emptor!

Really frustrating waiting for a tennis match to start. Betfair keep putting back the Rzaki match start time 10 minutes while some idiot is on the tennis court giving a speech!

Looks like it was the opening ceremony.
