    Didn't Fed lose to Berdych under the lights last year too? Or was that on Armstrong?

    4-0 up in the 2nd too.

    In top form it seems.

    Kvitova one set down too.

    Halep wins 6-1 6-0 in the end, really starting to put it together on the big stage. Kuznetsova or Pennetta up next :).

    Kvitova is on the way out it seems.

    Strong win for Halep. Definitely a dark horse here.

    Me too. I thought they always showed a repeat of the night matches and I really wanted to watch that fantastic match again.

    Me too - very annoying especially as they showed Andy's match twice today and it wasn't even a night match or a thriller. Managed to see a few mins of highlights of the Hewitt/Delpo match on eurosport this afternoon - again after Andy.
    Not sure but they may show a replay on the red button tonight but I wont be able to watch it. :mad:

    She is, put money on her at 100-1 before the Tournament started, brilliant results all year, except in the Slams, was always going to change that soon.

    Heather's match been by far her biggest challenge so far.

    Being reported Petra had to go to hospital last night :(
    via Ben Rothenberg:
    Hearing Petra Kvitova was in hospital yesterday. Kvitova-Riske was set to be night match, but didn't want to risk her withdrawal…

    Yes, and I think the additional publicity effected her for a while, but she's still quite young, and she's had a great year.

    I have been watching Eurosport International via mobile and it appears that they show Ashe and Armstrong on rheir 2 channels. What you see on Sky Sports you see on Eurosport international. They stay on air for the night sessions.

    Not sure about British Eurosport ot British Eurosport 2. They make way for TV Shop at 12.30am.

    How have you been able to watch Eurosport International on mobile? Does it contain ads?

    Thanks for your reply but I am definitely recording after midnight matches separately. Its showing on my sky planner that it has been recording but when I select it to watch it nothing happens. It's really bizarre.
    Ah well, I've set my own Sky box to record the tennis after midnight tonight, so I'll see what happens.

    I'm pleased that McHale has changed her hat from blue to white, as I was getting confused with these two's matching outfits & matching hairstyles.

    They must have been massive, as sports bras these days are very good.

    There's plenty of pictorial evidence around, and yes they were big. Yet she did say even if she wasn't a tennis player she may have done it because it made her self-concious. Which I guess only got worse when their was such a fuss about it all. Felt sorry for her, but glad she's got through it now.

    Were they bigger than Serena's?
