Busta and Altmeier are gonna play until midnight. Collins and Jabroni got moved to tomorrow. Full slate at Chatrier. Rafa will probably be playing late.

Danielle is through to the quarters, Svitolina loses to a no name. Schwartzman and Thiem up next.

Geez, that was a rough match to watch. I was up early and flipped it on, 57 degrees, both of them looked like they didn't want to be there, ball wasn't bouncing at all, and Collin's celebratory shrieks always seem to come with the worst timing.

Yeah, Collins is kind of annoying.

Schwartzman and Thiem apparently had a long game at 4 all just now, with Thiem squandering like six BPs.

This is such a tough draw for Thiem. Awesome match to watch right now.

Seems like every time I look up, there is a break. Someone is going to tap out physically.

That was a horrific game from Schwartzman while serving for the set.

Is hard what they play the US Open on? Yes, I believe that's correct. Is that the tournament where a mere smug hasn't made it into the second week since the W administration?

What's grass? Oh yes, that gimmick surface they play one tournament a year on.

Come on, fellas. I know there are some shady free streams out there.

Match-fixing at a major? For real, ladies?

I know Schwartz just beat him, but I think he would take his chances wearing down Diego versus having to ballbash with Thiem all day before facing Djoker. Schwartz leveled the breaker at 6-6 after being down 5-1, but Thiem takes it 8-6.

Isn't this match awesome? The storylines, the tension, the drama...matches like this are why I fell in love with the sport.

Schwartz in a TKO. Thiem was completely gassed at the end, breaking out droppas left and right.

Sinner is holding very easily. Read into that however you wish.

ETA: Of course he choked when serving for the set and hit possibly the worst droppa I've ever seen.

Rafa takes the breaka but I'm not quite sure he'll just cruise in the next 2 sets like usual.

Wonder if there's a cutoff time since it's already midnight there.

ETA2: Sinner MTO. Looks like some kind of weird porn getting his inner thighs massaged by a dude in a mask while he chugs water.
