Here's a fun fun video...the closing line is classic!

Blindfold serve

Emily Travers gives Paul Hanley & Jamie Murray one more challenge and a twenty dollar reward if they can hit the Panasonic Lumix camera while blindfolded.

Haha, thanks for this, luvs! Only 32 views on youtube so far for this exquisitely crafted video.

Woohoo, Well done Kiwi Doubles pair of Dan King-Turner and Michael Venus through to the semis! :happy:

[papadopul]

Hot Sauce and Ferrer both through their QF delayed from yesterday- will play each other in SF later --

[mylittlejewelaa]

The Auckland weather is rubbish. A rain delay just about every day. Weather down here in Christchurch is much better...you just have to worry about the odd earthquake.
