I don't know how far he'll get, but my darkhorse pick is Brian Baker...on a comeback tour...would have easily been a top 10 player in the world if not for years of injuries

 

[Bucknut24]

lol Roddick

 

[Bucknut24]

Del Po up 2 sets to none on RFed and Tsonga and Djokovic split first 2 sets

 

[Bucknut24]

Federer takes the 3rd set, Joker loses the 3rd...both down 2 sets to 1

 

[Bucknut24]

Federer really took it to Del Po after losing the 2nd set, destroying him the next 3 sets

Tsonga had 2 match points at 5-4 in the 4th on Joker's serve, able to fight them off, Tsonga up 6-5 now with Joker trying to force a tiebreak

 

[Bucknut24]

2 more match points saved, 4th set tiebreak we go

 

[Bucknut24]

Tsonga up 4-2 on the changeover with darkness and rain coming

this is gonna be last set on the day no matter what

 

[gracelhink]

5-4 with a mini run of 3 points by Novak, Darkness and rain may be a friend for Djoker if he's able to win the breaker, he looks fatigued.

could be a friend for Tsonga as well, not exactly mentally strong

 

[Bucknut24]

2 huge points from Tsonga, 6-6 now

 

[Bucknut24]

to a 5th we go

You were right, a rain, darkness delay would have been a blessing for Tsonga.
Djoker with an easy 5th set win.
