Djokovic upset in the 2nd round in Melbourne by a wild card qualifier from Uzbekistan. Biggest upset ever?

 

Wow I was watching that and couldn't stay up anymore.

 

That's insane!

Lucic is a great story but it really seemed like Pliskova got screwed over by that injury timeout. Up 4-3 in the third, she lost 12 of the next 13 without a single good shot it seemed.

 

We keep hearing about Federer -Nadal, gives me the feeling that Wawrinka might get the win tonight.

Exactly. Eisner winning a grand slam would be a nice story but don't see it happening.

 

Also Isner isn't exactly a joy to watch. I usually still just root for Donald Young and don't have many options outside that. Not that I root against Isner.

Sock has a better chance that Isner at this point although I don't see Sock ever winning one either. The current class of youngsters for the USA are incredibly talented (Tiafoe, Fritz, Donaldson, Opelka, etc.) but who knows if any of them will become good enough to win a grand slam. This is probably the most promising group of players the USA has had since the Roddick and Blake were coming up.
