The full 15 minute interview is superb LOL

He has a pop at almost every journalist there. The best moment being when a female journalist has a question for him, Kyrgios half recognises the voice, turns and looks at her and says 'you were in the pub too last night. This is akward'. LOL

Tennis needs more bad guys.Way to much gentlemanly stuff and the lesser players genuflecting to the big three. The last really good player who deliberately got under the top players skin was Robin Soderling who had to retire very early due to illness.

Soderling was brilliant. A huge loss. Yep the men's tennis is way too nice. It would be great if Kyrgios was challenging the top lads over the last few years.

Nadal through to the next round easily enough. As good as Nadal was, Tsonga made some really poor mistakes. 

After a close first set, Federer really upped his game during the 2nd and now early in the 3rd.

Peaked in his first gran slam when he made the final. Everyone assumed he'd win more than one after that.He's been no way near it. A total under achiever, never seemed to put the work in or get the right coach.Still he's a multi millionaire so he's probably not too worried about it.

McEnroe said that about few French players. They have the talent to win a slam but aren't willing to make the sacrifices that Nadal or Murray did.

Nadal v Fed should be the semi final next Friday.

I ended up with Court 1 tickets so saw Sousa beating Dan Evans. What a match! Evans seems like a total **** though

Federer, Nadal, and Djokovic all through with little trouble. Based on both performances today, Nadal vs Federer will be a great semi-final to watch.

Funny the way they big up the new guy who's going to knock them off their perch.
Cilic
Raonic
Nishikori
Tsonga
Dimitrov
Thiem
Zverev
Tsitsipas

All built up over the last 10 years or so.All seem to wilt under the pressure and get no way near them. It's still to early to say for Thiem,Zverev and Tsitsipas, but it's quite likely they'll go the way of the others.
