Nadal and Federer are seeded 1 and 2, respectively. Though they won the first 2 slams of the year, as they did in 2017, Djokovic won Wimbledon and the last big warm up tournament in Cincinnati, and in doing so became the first man to win all 9 ATP Masters 1000 tournaments. However, since Djokovic is coming back from injury, he doesn't have that many ranking points so he's seeded 6th.

On the women's side, who knows. Serena hasn't been a little disappointing since having a baby, and the slam winners from this year, Wozniacki, Halep, and Kerber are inconsistent.

LOL at this poo poo logo.

Wawrinka v Dimitrov again, and it's first up on Ashe!

Direct link to the official radio if anyone gives a poo poo. Easier to use via VLC than their poo poo webplayer.

e: Amazon are only showing five courts. gently caress off with that!

Kyrgios managed to win after it looked like he was going to tank. It was so bad Lahyani, the umpire(!), was giving him a pep talk.

Kyrgios keeps replying to his dumb tweets with dumb comments as he didn't like an article Rothenberg wrote ~2 years ago. Rothenberg is an arsehole who is also stupid enough to keep responding to Nick.
