...big queues to get drinks/food, but more probably drinks.

I'd just take my own.  Saves time and it's cheaper.

That's no fun when you want some alcohol - these are fun loving Aussies you know! Very Happy  And yes, they do bag searches so that you don't take your own alcohol in yes

Tsonga just lost the 3rd set 1-6 hes going to have to go the distance if he's to come through.
Otherwise it's Kei versus Andy.

Who do you all want Andy to play next  tsonga or nishakori?
Definitely Nishikori for me, less big match experience than Tsonga and although Andy's record against Tsonga is great some of those matches have been close run things and at his very best is a frightening prospect..a lot of short points when playing him too maybe isn't the best preparation for a slug fest against Djokovic.

Courage isn't absence of fear but mastery of it.

Aargh!..Eurosport have just switched away from the Tsonga match just as it was getting interesting, that channel is so frustrating at times. confused
Eurosport Player did the same but are now back on Tsonga match.  It's the survival of the fittest out there. Nishi took 2nd and 3rd sets 6-2, 6-1.

Oh my!  Think heat must be affecting the comms.  The male one just referred to Nishi as a Russian. Very Happy

Andy beat Nishi 6-3, 6-0 in the SF in Shanghai.  But this is far from settled as Tsonga finally starts putting the pressure on Nishi.

Would love to watch this but I'm way too tired now.

Nishikori without a doubt. Andy will be able to beat Tsonga but it  willbe a much harder work and we cannot afford it.

Serena just got broken again in second set. She's totally frustrated. Makarova is playing her tough.

Remember that funny line from Val Kilmer's Elvis Presley-spy movie spoof "Top Secret!"  (1984) from the talented makers of "Airplane!" (1980).

The politically incorrect line which serves as a password is "In women's tennis, I always root against the heterosexual." 

I'm not a fan of the WTA so my mantra is "In women's tennis, I always root against the favorites, the divas and the drama queens."

So, I'm totally rooting for Makarova here.

Me too, not a fan of Serena. Favor men's tennis, women lose serve too often.

I do have some exceptions.  I really like Kvitova and it's impossible to hate Clijsters.
