Even worse that Kyrgios. And that's saying a lot.

(9,936 posts)4. Exactly what he should have done. Unfortunate for him and though I am not a fan, I hope he

unless Norrie can pull off a miracle.
It's a Hobson's choice but if Djokovic loses, Rafa will still have two more Grand Slam wins.

Norrie looks good and Djoker looks off today.
Let's hope it can hold this way for another couple hours.
