**JulieSmithdccd** · 07-31-2012, 12:19 PM

Woo...got both of Canada's singles games on (so far!) Of course we're down 2-0 in both.

**Nypbscao** · 07-31-2012, 12:52 PM

...And Raonic just mirrored Tsonga's 3-0 start in the second set. If he can hold 3 games then it looks like we're in for some third set fun. Good stuff.

On the other hand, Wozniak is embarrasing herself.

**JulieSmithdccd** · 07-31-2012, 01:10 PM

Yup, we have a 3rd set coming in Tsonga-Raonic.

In the H2H contest I gave Wozniak 4 games and I see I may have overestimated.

**Nypbscao** · 07-31-2012, 01:26 PM

Right on the spot ptmcmahon! And now it looks like the bleak weather forecast is imposing itself on everybody...

As long as we're waiting, who do people have for Tsonga-Raonic and Lisicki-Shvedova?

**ViagraFeller** · 07-31-2012, 02:22 PM

Anyone know how long the Venus/Wozniack match was (for the tiebreaker question)?

**ViagraFeller** · 07-31-2012, 02:24 PM

Anyone know how long the Venus/Wozniack match was (for the tiebreaker question)?

I found it. 63 minutes.

**ViagraFeller** · 07-31-2012, 02:27 PM

Some of the stats seems pretty generous. Kerber beat Babos 6-1 6-1, and Babos is listed as having 21 winners to 18 errors. (Kerber 17-3)

**JulieSmithdccd** · 07-31-2012, 03:36 PM

Wow and I had 65 minutes for Wozniak-Williams. I called that much pretty well. Probably will be my only point of the day but I'll take it!

Oh yeah...WITHOUT going over.

**ViagraFeller** · 07-31-2012, 03:44 PM

You still have the better tiebreaker than someone who picked 66 minutes. You'd just lose to someone who picked 1 minute, ala The Price Is Right. I imagine you'd beat most people. (I went with 72 minutes.)

**Nypbscao** · 07-31-2012, 04:05 PM

Watching Roddick vs Djokovic. Roddick down 6-2 3-0 already in a disappointing performance. His return of serve and his weak backhand are big liabilities.

**noingenah** · 07-31-2012, 04:34 PM

Anybody watching Raonic-Tsonga? I'm stuck with the live scoreboard. Looks exciting from here though, 6-6 in the 3rd!

**Nypbscao** · 07-31-2012, 04:46 PM

I'm trying to watch that match but my live stream keeps crashing. 7-7 now. Curiously it's like a mirror of the women's match between Lisicki and Shvedova which Lisicki just won 7-5. Two big hitters in both cases.

**noingenah** · 07-31-2012, 05:16 PM

Crap, the itftennis.com olympics page is crashed and their live scoreboard is pooched. Is Raonic still playing?

**CialisBestPrice** · 07-31-2012, 05:17 PM

Woody, go to ctvolympics.ca. It's on TSN right now.

11-12 on serve in the third. Come on Milos, my stomach is in knots!

**Nypbscao** · 07-31-2012, 05:18 PM

Loving Raonic-Tsonga. Both are playing great with a lot of winners. 12-12 now. This and Goerges-Radwanska are the matches of the tournament so far.

**noingenah** · 07-31-2012, 05:20 PM

Thanks, found a live scoreboard. And got my kids to record TSN, I'll see what I caught when I get home

It is really tough to know what will be broadcast and when!

**Vomephems** · 07-31-2012, 05:21 PM

Anybody watching Raonic-Tsonga? I'm stuck with the live scoreboard. Looks exciting from here though, 6-6 in the 3rd!

If Raonic is going to win this, he is going to need help from Tsonga in terms of errors and tactical mistakes. If Tsonga is going to win this, he has to clean up his return games and take advantage of the slight chances he has gotten.

Needless to say, they are both serving bombs.

You can't livestream where you are?

**Riprincattiva** · 07-31-2012, 05:33 PM

14-14 - this is tortue

- I can hardly watch - 3 medals for today - that makes me feel better
