Sore fingers. Hot weather. Sore foot ? But Rafa toughed it out. Fernando choked a few times. Even with a lead in second set. But then pulled out the second in a tie breaker …A third set is about to begin. We will keep you posted. So far each won a breaker …

Rafael. Has burned two fingers on his right hand. His index finger and middle finger are heavily taped. Rafa said it was a burn and blisters from touching a hot plate at a restaurant. Ouch. He said it mostly hurts on his backhand since he uses the right hand to help guide his swing …

Ok. Change of subject. Change of channel. Watching on ESPN. Love Pam Shriver. Love Darren Cahill. That Chris Fowler guy is so so. And talks too much. But he is better that that” Ted dude”.(Robinson) From I don’t know what channel…

The funniest was Pat McEnroe ….not what he said but his bad hair day …”Bed head ” ? Bad product ? The humidity ? Maybe it’s a just his new “do ” ….comb over / comb forward ….

Andy Murray ended the run of American journeyman Alex Bogolomov Jr. ..We love BRAVEHEART. He needs a slam. Wozzy needs a slam.
