Has anyone noticed how they've spelled 'quarter' on the Livescore box - 'quater'.


It's a very common mistake on sites for lesser tournaments in non-English-speaking countries, DJ, presumably because they can't afford to employ a native English-speaker to ensure that everything's tickety-boo! frustrated.gif  Some of their efforts can be quite funny, but that one's intensely annoying! steaming.gif  But as an ex-professional translator, I would say that, wouldn't I?  wink  Even so, I could cheerfully strangle the individuals who inflict such indignities on my mother tongue! rage.gif  I also disapprove of the absence of a hyphen, but that's the Yankee influence, I'm afraid... hmm



Better watch out, Wolf, Stircrazy is after you ...

Delgado and Auckland's semi-final opponents today, Petzschner and Peya, have just started their singles quarter-final (currently 2-1 to Petzschner, first set). The doubles is scheduled for Court 1 (so just live score then) not before 3:00pm GMT, not before rest, so hopefully they will tire each other out beforehand.

Peya has just won 6-2, 6-4. Nothing that special from either really.

P&P broke for 4-2, A&D broke back for 4-3, but P&P got the the break again for 5-3, and P&P have just served it out to take the set 6-3.

Oh flip. Just checked the SB again and P&P have just taken the first set 6-3

Edit - you beat me to it, Wolfie.
