Tennis thread looks quiet. Probably resembling the quality of matches, both WTA and ATP.

What a day for Dutch tennis!

Lesley Kerkhove in the quarter finals of a WTA tournament (Kuala Lumpur) and Robin Haase beat Tomas Berdych in Dubai 

 

Berdych had some break points when Haase was serving for the match, which is when Haase normally neatly deposits the ball into the net and lets himself be broken, but he actually finished it off this time 

 

Happy Robin

ATP is still holding so-so, but WTA sinking deeper and deeper. Though, I am glad for some players making noise, or blooming after years of non-existence.

Yeah, i spoke too soon.  Total mugfest by Roger, lost so many vital leads, that i don't think anyone know how it happened.

Ruud lost but I like what I saw in Rio and Sao Paulo
