Couldn't update courtside ... signal is very poor at the event except for right outside the truck where the antennae is situated. Will have to wait and see for Flembo's injury. Could tell he wasn't himself. Not much pop on the service for starters! Shame as he looked to be playing really well and had a good chance of making the main draw. The shoulder pain began after the rain delay yesterday and seemed to be worse this morning. They are not due to play dubs until tomorrow and may hopefully receive an extension until Wednesday, so fingers crossed that additional rest and treatment will help. Not sure if I'll be there for the Dan Evans match tomorrow (depends on the timing of that and the Flemski match). Will send updates if possible.
Just to let everyone know, now the MD's for both singles and doubles have started the scoreboard is now working perfectly, shame not all challengers do it. Im sure all they have to do is connect something to the umpires gadget haha.

Looks as though your wish has been granted, Tim: no sign of them in today's OoP! Am keeping my fingers very firmly crossed that Colin can shake off the problem & will be fit to play tomorrow.
