Smallest court he would be moved to would be Grandstand.
Priority today is Djokovic's side of the draw and the completion of those matches.
My main worry is that night and day sessions are treated independently at the USO. I sincerely hope there's no possibility of the day session being cancelled (Murray not being able to play) and yet Federer could sneak in his match later tonight.
That court is actually known as the graveyard as so many upsets had happened there in the past. I've checked the weather and the percentage of rain falling is highest (60%) exactly between the time frame when Andy is supposed to play, so there's a chance his match might move to another court. Andy definitely loves AA so fingers crossed that he stays there despite the rain. This wouldn't have happened though if the 4th rounds matches had all been completed last night as scheduled. Having said all that, I really think it's very important that we stay positive and don't think of things that have yet to happen. We have no idea how things are going to pan out weather-wise so best not assume too many things. Toronto get similar weather as NY and it's very bright and sunny today (rained all day yesterday just like NY) here so I am really hoping that rain will move away quickly and give the day/week a sunny break. It's only fair to all players too. |

Here in London, Ontario we have a forecast of rain and thunder & lightning yet it's sunny and not a cloud in the sky.
Desperate for Andy to get his win in today_can't possibly imagine Cilic could beat him.

And it's supposed to rain hard at this hour so I say it's a good thing. |

It's a bad state of affairs when MW members on the other side of the Pond (London, Toronto, Florida) can't organise good weather so that Andy can secure a win against Cilic!  I think some North Americans have been doing a rain dance.  After all, look how we on this side of the Atlantic always arrange sunshine and calm conditions at Wimbeldon.  |

The Brits are too moody for us. We can't detect their moods; therefore, can't set the weather according to His Majesty' mystic nature. We don't even know which Andy will show up forget anything else. Therefore, our strategy is always: you keep us in dark, we keep you in dark. Tit for tat.  |

Touch the sky - and touch it he did.

they had an interview with the guy in charge of the tournament and he said the weather for later on was looking like it might be better than originally forecast and that they were pretty confident they'd complete the scheduled matches. But seemed a bit of a smoothie to me and not sure totally trust him. He wouldn't be drawn as to what would happen to Andy if things got badly delayed but said moving instead to the night match and moving Andy on to another court was one of a number of scenarios they're studying.
