Apologies for presumptious posting. Have to go out and wanted to put my bet in of 15 on Roddick to win the final. Hope this is ok.
Mods feel free to delete this or move it to appropriate place, but please count my bet.
Many thanks
1 am tonight! For the Insomniacs !!!!!
It's expected to be a tough match but, hey, so was the Federer match but worse! *LOL*

What are your views on courtside coaching, do you think it should be made legal ?
The views of top players on this:
Nadal: "What kind of rule is this that coaches can't say anything during a match ? In what other sport does this happen ?"
Rusedski: "It's a free-for-all, so you might as well ha...
Tough one for Greg here.. Tbh he'll have to be on his game really to stand any chance of winning this match against Ljubicic and if he does it will be in 3 sets. Certainly a match of big servers and if Greg can put in a good serve who knows what could happen during this match. But I just feel Ljubicic will win, s...

This thread is for following the Cinci main draw.
Just seen that Querrey has won the 1st set against Nadal, 7-5 in the 1st set tiebreak !

Querrey's only ranked 178 and a couple of years ago he was nowhere even in juniors !!!!
Well now it's time to stop celebrating folk over Murray's historic win over the world's no 1 and focus on his 3rd round opponent Ginerpri. They have played each other before and that was way back in Bangkok last year which was also on hard courts such as here in Cincy and of course he came through in 3 sets t...
