Strange, my livestream was ok in that game, but the problem you describe is what I was having earlier.
very strange. the problem sorted itself out by my simply ignoring it. Not sure what it was doing or why though. Oh well, I'm grateful that theres a livestream at all!!

Excellent stuff from Andy. His court coverage in particular is superb, even better than it used to be I think.
Like you, Mad, I noticed that they seemed to be pretty friendly at the net ... or at least, Andy was, and from the look opn Kolya's face, there were no hard feelings. I imagine the players must know that other players' comments (not to mention their own reactions) are often blown out of all proportion by the media.

I guess Andy must be playing for a place back in the top 10 tomorrow ... and he should now be assured of avoiding the top 4 seeds at the AO until the QFs.
