Berdych choked away the only record he was ever going to hold. :/
They have failed me. Hades, Artemis and Hermes are my new gods now.
Eurosport showing and reading Tweets on Game, Set & Mats is so lazy.
"Hey, instead of making some content ourselves let's just show Tweets!"
Kyrgios is still a little bit young but he could do real damage in the draws in the coming months/years. Will be interesting to see his progression.
I'm curious about Murray-Berdych. Berdych actually leads the head to head, 6-4. If I had to choose I'd bet on Murray, he's in great form and is more used to winning these kind of matches, but new, Nadal slayer Berdych will probably be a strong opponent. Taking Nadal and Murray out in a row would definitely be a fantastic performance for him.

Berdych won all 3 clay matches, though, so perhaps not the most indicative. They're 3-3 on hard courts, pretty evenly matched. Berdych seems to be slightly favoured on the slower courts, though - I guess because it gives him more time to set up the forehand - so from that perspective given the AO court speed he's probably in a better position.

You just gotta feel for Eugenie. She was pummeled at the YEC and once again went out meekly to Maria. That and twirlgate, she has to be wondering if she will ever be known for anything more than her beauty.....

All 4 matches yesterday were straight set wins. Hopefully tonight has more entertaining matches.

Maria just has her number. She's only 20, there's room to improve both mentally and physically.

At least Maria can put a sympathetic arm around Bouchard's shoulder and say 'hey, I know what it's like when someone owns your soul on court.'

Raonic has absolutely nothing to hurt Novak.Ok now that Eugenie is out(she will be back stronger)...,rooting for Cibulkova to go all the way...and Raonic I guess.(take some pressure off Bouchard man
)
He has, like Karlovic.

Not a high level of tennis thus far by either Keys or Venus

I think Keys will fade in the 3rd set

They look they're not even trying. I mean, I know it's because they're both dead tired, ut even so, doesn't make for an exciting match.
Serena has to win against Cibulkova first.

3 all in the 3rd. Okay maybe now the matchplay will start to get better

For a quarter-final, this is shockingly bad quality.

5-4 Keys. Please just break to end this

Madison Keys becomes the first teen in the AO semi-final since Eugenie Bouchard in 2014, and Sloane Stephens in 2013.
As much as the beat writers talk about the men taking longer to mature in the game, women can still blossom early it appears

Sloppy match. Bring on Cibulkova

Man, that's tragic for Williams. You literally cannot get a weaker QF opponent than that.

Her best match was against Kvitova. She did play well to break Venus in the last game though.
10 years ago it would be tragic. But now it's expected.

Serena looks great so far. Crushing that first serve. Cibulkova is playing game, but when Serena is dialed in like this, hard for anyone to edge her.

She's pissed that Madison eliminated her sis, and wants to make damn sure she'll have a crack at Madison next round.

Shriekarenka would have actually given Serener a good match. This is just a poor matchup for Pocket Rocket

Cibulkova's service motion is so bizarre. Her ball toss is waaaay high, and she compresses her shoulder so much when making the shot. It's not what you expect from a pro.
If Madison has any sense, she'll withdraw =p
