I know that. Don't you think he looks whitewashed in this picture?
His usual skin tone:
Similar to how Beyonce changes in some adverts:
Parisian crowds are terrible and obnoxious as fuck (and I say this as someone who was born in Paris ) but Monfils is a SUPER star at Roland Garros and the french audience loves him to death so there's no way they would boo him. No. Fucking. way.

I'm watching on British Eurosport and I'm just repeating what one of the reporters who was courtside when they entered said.
Watching via Apple TV and it is a bit stuttery. Better than yesterday when it wouldn't work at all though.
Alright, thanks. Wasn't sure if it was just me.
Cool, nice of them to skip a game and a half. Jesus.

NBC showing commercials instead of the first two games of the second set.

I was annoyed when I missed the start of the first point of the set, but that's just disgusting. Reminds me of the disgusting antics they pulled at the Olympics.

Fix your fucking sound Eurosport.
Giving us an update on the hockey schedule is way more important than live tennis for sure.

Monfils and Simon are supertight off the court, really good friends. Doesn't surprise me.

Rooting for a Tsonga Monfils semi, that'd be fun.
2nd best matchup would be Fed Nishikori, they've never played in a Slam.
Fed/Tsonga we've seen a bunch, Stan/Nishikori we've seen already, so boo those matchups.
Monfils/Nishikori could be decent fun.
But the tennis gods, let's get Tsonga/Monfils or Fed/Nishikori, anything else will be a disappointment.

Nishikori would absolutely slaughter Monfils, it would be brutal. Gael plays so far behind the baseline that someone like Nishikori who comes into the ball so early would be hitting winners left, right and centre.

Which I why I dislike when games air on nbc and their stupid sports report, I don't care about updates from other sports.

Not sure Federer actually has a game plan other than "hit to Monfils' backhand, wait for error".
In fairness, it's a working plan right now.

Allez Monfils! Such a shame this won't finish tonight because the French can't afford €80,000 lights

They should call the match now. No way can they get 2 more sets in under this lighting. Come back tomorrow and play best 2 of 3
