What I noticed: Day 5



  • Vika Azerenka had a tougher time today with Mona Barthel. But still came through in straights. She needs to work on her challenging skills though she ran out in the second set, this made her kinda angry. The crowd booed her reaction to the match.
  • Rafa played Lucas Lacko it was a good match after a kinda flat first set over all. In the third set Laver had a visitor as bird sat on court as Rafa was about to serve, the ball kid had to shoo it off court, it was cute.  
  • Julia Goerges defeated Oprandi in a comeback three set victory to reach the second week of a Slam for the first time. 
  • Christina McHale had one more break point then JJ but that didn't matter as she only converted one in the 6-2 6-0 loss. 
  • Roger Federer lobbed Dr. Ivo. That's really all you need to know.
  • The post match interviews on Laver after the Nadal and Federer matches
  • Feli Lopez out lasted John Isner in 5-settter. It was an up and down kinda match especially the second set where Feli had a break advantage but went on to lose the set in a tiebreaker. He plays Rafa next. 
  • Kim Clijsters sported a black kit, it looked fierce. She played a solid match to move through to the second week.
