This article towards the end has Andy saying no mixed doubles for him and Jamie will play with Jo.

Does anyone have the post match interview with Delpo btw?

Andy's not scheduled for today, not even on the official Rio site with Rio timezone. Nor Rafa singles.

"I'll concentrate on the singles now," Andy said. "I'll get a day off tomorrow and recover. It's been a long day."

Why are they exempt from the singles today?

Wimbledon Twitter posted this for Roger's birthday

All that clip does is make me realise how much I miss Pete and S&V tennis at Wimbledon.

Roger tweeted the other day that he was missing everyone and wishes he was there in Rio.

I bet Hingis wishes he was there in Rio too. Will she be playing mixed doubles with anyone?

I know it could never happen, but I kinda wish you could do scratch mixed doubles a la Wimbledon and people could choose whoever they wanted to pair up with.

Imagine Martina playing with Novak.

As someone who hated being picked for teams at school, I was one of these people.

Oh ffs!

That match might need alcohol to get through it

For me I mean not Rafa or Delpo. My poor nerves will be shot.

You confused me when you said Ward. I thought there were 2 matches on now even though Ward isn't playing at Rio.


This guy beat Sock in R1. His dad is Paul Daniel. Now that's magic.
