Does anyone know if the Nadal/ Senna quarter final match is going to be played after this women's quarter final that is going on now ? It was scheduled but the Thiem match went on to over5hours.

[-SharonA-]

I don't know, but I am too waiting patiently. I know Nadal will be fuming.

[Rosie29]

I bet !

[Rosie29]

Yes it's going to happen !

[-SharonA-]

Feel sorry for the players, at this time of night, their body must start shutting down & tiredness creeps in.

[Cloverjo]

Should be on soon.
The women’s match has finished.

[Rosie29]

And the waiting around and the uncertainty must be so stressful. Any way- we'll enjoy what we can tonight :-)

[Cloverjo]

It’s only half past ten there. (!) At the US Open they’re sometimes put on court at midnight.

Why would Nadal be furious? Not as if Schwartzman and Thiem took 5 hours on purpose.

[-SharonA-]

Of course not. Late night match, in Europe, it's cold as Nadal has acknowledged which makes conditions harder in play in.
In the AO you've got the advantage of the warm weather in the late night games.

Nadal and Sinner (not Senna the F1 driver!) are playing right now.

[-SharonA-]

It's how they pronounce his name.

[Ken4155]

This match could take just as long, Sharon. In actual playing time, that is.

[Rosie29]

Gotta go to bed - I've watched seven hours of stunning tennis today and I shall set solid if I don't move. Rafa two sets up atm. Night night all.
