^ They've only released the schedule for Ashe & Armstrong. I'll update it when they release the rest.

Day 8 will be a bit more complicated it looks like.

Two great men's matches on Ashe. Go Jo and Kei!

Starting from tomorrow, you only need those two courts for the singles matches. :idea:

Yes, but I also include the doubles and mixed doubles.

FYI: I've updated the schedule to reflect the most recent changes.

With three rounds over, the top 16 are the ones who are supposed to remain. 11 of
them kept the appointment. The 5 losers who did not live up to their seeding are
Ferrer, Isner, Gulbis, Gasquet and Fognini.

I think that is a right mixture of some new folks (about 1/4th) and some expected folks
(about 3/4th).

Nole takes the first set with no issues, 6-1 was the score.

Nole takes the first set with no issues, 6-1 was the score.

He has really gotten to a good level compared to the masters.

It's best to peak here than in Cincinnati, right?

He does have a tight second set on hand.

I was hoping for a rematch of the Wimbledon doubles final, but Pop/Sock lost to Berlocq/Mayer. 6-2, 6-2

That's true. He's even won a few back-to-back matches here. :snigger

It's also the way he has been winning matches. Has looked the best of the top guys by far. No lapses yet, but Kohli is a tough player. Great timing.

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Kohly played as best a set point as he could, but Nole had other ideas...

 

[tented]

Great point to get to 5-5.

Now here comes the avalanche for Kohls

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Bad miss from Nole at the net. BP for Kohly, again.

 

[TennisFanatic7]

Not overly confident about this match. Hopefully Andy can prove me wrong!

 

[Riotbeard]

Wheels are off for Kohlschreiber.
