Oh my, two extremely good matches. A Tsonga win would be amazing though it's way too early to call. Roger is hanging in there and I expect he'll bounce back soon.

This is all too stressful for me. And from your lips GrandSlamGuru. . .

Del Potro just called for a trainer and he's down 4-2 in the 3rd. Now that Roger knows he's vulnerable the tide may turn.
WOW! Tsonga is up 2 sets to 1! Be still my heart.
And now it's raining. OMG what a day of tennis!

Okay, I just took a break to check the scores, and I can't believe I'm missing these matches. Of course, if I was at home watching I'd be complaining that the stress is too much.
I love modern tech, though, because I just used my smart phone to remotely turn on my DVR.
Wow, Tsonga just won the third set!

Oh yes, modern tech is incredible. At home I have DirecTV so I get TTC and all the good tennis channels. But right now I'm house sitting for a friend who doesn't get any of these channels. (Sigh) So thanks to modern tech, I'm watching both matches online via lshunter. Sweet!

I'm checking online and I was like, Wow Fed put the hamme- down but now I see JMDP may be having some difficulties? Well, obviously he's having difficulties, 2 and love, but if he's not quite well then it's not all Fed.
I would love to see Tsonga go on at the F-ench(and that's not anti-Djok in this case), but I have no faith at all in the ultimate outcome of this match. Well it's anti Djok in the sense that I find JWT mo-e fun, and Djok mo-e imp-essive. I like high quality, but fun is good too. And Tsonga can play high quality, natch.

Tsonga is a big honey bear of fun adorability. I have no live stream and can only scoreboard watch. Dammit.

Thanks GSG I've been popping in now and then. I can't go all tennis all the time in the 1st week of a Slam, hopefully will be mo-e engaged this week
Stop giving me damn hea-t attacks Fed! Not that the-e is any issue with losing to JMDP, no shame, we all know he's got the game. I wouldn't even have been too too sad if JMDP won this, on condition that he then makes the final, cause again that would be fun too. Not Jo-Willy type fun, but happy to see DelPo all back.
Looking like a 5th with Djock and JWT, not a shock, and if it does I'm thinking Djok. But not quiiiiiite yet.

I was watching Fed/Delpo (lshunter just like GSG) and keeping live scores on to see what was going on with Tsonga/Djoker. When both Fed and Jo had match points at the same time! And the rain started! OY!
But now I'm full on Tsonga/Djoker (and I appear to be giving Jo bad luck).
acre, the only thing Fed did was not stop playing--Delpo was that injured. It was sad to see. The knee just gave out on him. Delpo got re-wrapped before the fifth and did start playing a tiny bit better but Roger didn't let him back into the match.

Oh, that's too bad fo- Delpo. Not that I wanted him to win, but at least I could have stood up to it ... just too good today. Hope what he has is sho-t and not too bad. Little time b Wimby/Oly's, but then all the ha0d cou-ts he excels on, should have time to be good by then.

Can the French crowd please lift Jo up and carry him through to a win based on sheer guts and euphoria? Please?
ETA: I didn't see the match but it's got to be gutwrenching to be up two sets on Federer and still lose. Poor guy.
