Am I right to say that the Novak-Gasquet match means absolutely nothing? 200 points, but no impact on tournament or rankings?

Fed vs. del Potro should be good. Its like the final game in a best of three series, with them tied at 1 a piece. With apologies to David Ferrer, is it the match to decide who is the 4th best player in the game right now?

I don't think either should be considered the 4th best just by making the semi of the YEC. Stan Wawrinka made it too...

Since Murray is recovering from surgery and not playing... 3 and 4.

Enjoy the match everyone. Have it on DVR and will see it later.

*Annacone will be providing commentary. Should be cool to hear his insights on RF.

Milos talking with Koenig and the guys and he says of all the top players, Nadal is the one that puts the most mental burden on you.

If Roger wins in straights and Djoker loses in straights, Roger is 5-2 in sets and Nole is 4-4. How come Nole wins the group? Because he beat Roger?

nope......if Berydch would have won yesterday in 3, he would still would have made SF despite losing to Stan. So is not just H2H

I thought in this case since Nole beat both...What is a scenario that Nole loses the top spot then?

MIlos calls this court medium to slow, slower than the Asian swing courts. I am assuming as an alternate, he must have practiced on it.

sets won and lost. Stan has a 4-4 tally while Berdych could have score a 5-3 record.

If Novak ends up 4-4 while Roger ends up at 5-2, then he should get the top spot.

But the guys keep saying Nole already is the group winner. Who is wrong here?

Ugh, first game lost in a break already? That doesn't bode well.

Nice slam dunk, but he still has to get the break back , Roger.
