Upset Corner

[GameSetAndMath]

I am creating this thread with selfish motives. I won't be able to watch the day matches
on weekdays. I would like to learn of upsets that are brewing and finished recently.
I would appreciate if people who are watching matches live could alert other folks
on this thread with impending or just finished upsets. This thread will be sort
of like NFL Red Zone Channel.

Let me just mention the four upsets that happened on day 1. However, I want
people to post them as and when they happen and not wait for the day to be over to
report them. In particular, if you alert folks of an impending upset, folks can
immediately watch it on the computer (at work of course).

Day 1 Upsets.

Thanks for your help.

Querry 1 set all with Maximo Gonzalez after dominating first set.

 

[Luxilon Borg]

Scratch that...Q up 2 to 1 with a break at 5-4 in the third.

I would call you a traitor again if he wasn't playing another American.

[Luxilon Borg]

Ankle.

 

[Luxilon Borg]

If Andujar beats Sock is that an upset? Slap Boy down a set.

Querry 1 set all with Maximo Gonzalez after dominating first set.

This is neither impending finish nor an upset I suppose.

Honestly, shouldn't they have just started each set with a tie breaker??:laydownlaughing

Rosol is down 2 sets to 0 (6-4 6-1 (!)) to Coric and unfortunately can't find a stream.

Not surprised at all. Rosoll is a Dolt and Coric was super impressive in his mini run. Lots of variety.

Only morons play tourneys the week before slams.

Or guys who have a chance of winning a 250 and no chance in hell of winning a slam or even really going deep.

^ I agree about his scheduling but he won the tournament at least and actually he only played 3 matches there I believe so he shouldn't be really tired.

 

[Front242]

Plus he won $80,280 and moved up to world number 26 so all in all, not a great result today obviously but he's making big progress all the same and that paycheck for winning Winston-Salem is a big one for a guy not used to winning tournaments.

Exactly, it would be dumb if he were like a top 10 player. As it is Rosol made about a 100k in a week in half of play (including his first round exit at the USO.
