How the hell can Blake who didnt even really win a game, get to the next round? I just dont understand this one.
Thanks for the rules Al, but I still dont get it.

Going by the published rules Blake should be out.
I don't have a problem with changing rules or having a RR trial but to do it midway though a tournament is wrong
I don't get how they managed that one either.
EDIT TO ADD.
Blake is now out of Las Vegas after ATP admits mistake to reinstate him.
What a farce

How they made that mistake in the first place baffles me! Idiots!

It seems like the fans hate it. It seems like the players hate it. Who exactly wants to keep this system in place?

Roger Federer has never liked Robin Round, he has said that last year.

It is also not fair on lower ranked players. That make it more difficult for them and easier for top players too.
