What a Davis Cup kind of day. The doubles means a lot. And for the Swiss things didn't turn out so well. And Stan Wawrinka was literally knocked off his feet at the net on a match point volley.

Although it was close, the Bryans never really felt like they were under threat here; they faced only one break point, which they saved, while earning five break points of their own. All through the match, it felt as if they would win it in tiebreaks if not before. As it turned out, in the second set, it was before.
Not much to say about this except that Kei Nishikori waited until about two hours before his match to pull it. We'll have to see if he can play Davis Cup. The loss means that he will leave here at #18. Djokovic has now had two walkovers and has played only three matches here!
For most of the first set of this, Rafael Nadal was holding fairly easily and Milos Raonic was struggling. Then, out of the blue, Raonic had a break point in game ten, and Nadal double-faulted, and that was the set.
When Maria Sharapova went up 3-1 in the first set, we couldn't help but think, "Waitaminit, wasn't she just getting her serve plastered?" Yes, she was, but somehow she had saved all the break points (four in just two service games), and Serena had blown one.
This was a very long, very tough battle -- it really does seem as if Caroline Wozniacki is coming back to life. Coming back enough, at least, to have put herself in the Top Fifteen. But she had a lot of help -- Li Na made 32 errors in the first set, as against just one winner for Wozniacki.
“I hurt my right calf muscle in the last game of my match against Mona Barthel when I was serving for the match, so I don’t know if you can get any more unlucky than that.
