Federer has 870 wins?! Crikey. Nadal is the next closest of the current players with 583. Hewitt has 564 and Haas is on 499. Roddick had 612 but they didn't include him after his retirement last month.
Ferrer has 474, Djokovic has 459 and Murray has 373. Berdych has 365.
Others who are close are Davydenko (453), Robredo (421), Youzhny (395), Nalbandian (377), Blake (357), Verdasco (347) and Stepanek (327).
Can only really see Ferrer, Djokovic and Murray making the 500 club though, maybe Berdych.

Haas broke in the 2nd set but Djokovic breaks straight back to love.

I know I'm paranoid. But am I paranoid enough?

Cilic getting a proper spanking from Fed. I'll give it another 5 minutes.

Well, well... hold your horses. Fed had match point, but Cilic fought back to break. Will be on serve next at 4-5.

So Fed wins. If Cilic had got this set, I reckon he might have won.

Another Murray - SmugFed showdown. Hopefully Andy crushes him again.

After the Murray match Stepanek went on to win in the doubles QF with Paes (against Raonic & Melzer).
After playing Fed, Cilic (&Melo) beat Butorac & Petzschner in a match that started after 11pm and finished at about 00.40
Long days for some in this tournament.

These doubles and singles regulars, sure seem to be able to adapt well to playing 2 matches a day. From what we saw of Andy in the Olympics I think he'd definitely be able handle both, if he decided to do some doubles in Grand Slams
.
Hope Paes and Stepanek win the tournament, always been a big fan of Paes, he's one of the the best doubles players ever, very humble, and trying his best to further Indian Tennis, whilst Bhupathi and Boppana act like idiots and ruin it.

Nole's looked the best so far. Looking forward to his match tomorrow. Hope he crushes BigBird.
On the other hand
about Andy. Wish he were fully fit
