de Minaur withdraw from singles but played doubles! Very strange 

He had an injury recently and wasn't at 100% and singles is way more demanding physically than doubles. Plus clay is his worst surface and a 1R draw vs Struff wasn't the best, I think he made the right choice (Nadal should have done the same)

I think Nadal also would have withdrawn from singles if he wasnt drawn against Djokovic. His match against Djokovic is I feel what pushed him through.

It's always funny to see @hckošiceso negative about Slovakia's chances at every sport before every major competition and then they usually end up doing quite well in the end

The mixed doubles draw is really falling apart! Following the withdrawal of , I thought the clear favourites were  followed by  and 

 

Now all of these teams are out 

 

Wasted chance for us , but at least both of them are still alive in singles

this GIF is just too funny. Medvedev couldn't receive Errani's serve 3 times in the final game

Vekic just beat Gauff and that is another American hope slashed, after Pegula last night. Good news for them is that Collins and Navarro are making it past this round. 

 

Donna looks very emotional again. Don't know when she is not, is she loses, she is emotional, if she wins she is emotional.  (good thing i'm not a Eurosport commentator)

Donna Vekic takes out Cori Gauff in two sets. Gauff once again is unable to take advantage of the soft draw and Vekic winning three matches on clay is quite a surprise tbh.
