Go Roger!

goooooooo Felix MANTILLA

He'd better lose. I am betting against him ;)

Mantilla def. Ferrer 6-3, 7-6
Schüttler leads Mayer 6-3, 1-1

Komm jetzt Rainer, schick den Mayer heim :D

He'd better lose. I am betting against him ;)
he won in straight sets! i thought he would lose, so thats why i didnt bet on him

Mayer killed by Schüttler in under 60 minutes

bad performance from Mayer, but the last weeks have been overwhelming for him
he was due for a let down, if not in the 1st round then in the 2nd against another German

Go rogi!

rain delay?

Yes, looks like there was a rain delay. They're warming up...

Rosset breaks Stepanek *4-3, 1st set

goooooo rainer

is roger on yet?

He's on after Rosset/Stepanek, who are at the end of the first set. But it's been raining again.
Check out the live scores on the Gstaad site.

Go Rosset!

What is the site? Did rogi play yet?

http://www.swissopengstaad.com/en/index_e.shtml for English.

how bad is the rain? Should it let up soon? Anyone have a weather map of the area?

will roger play or no because of the rain?

Here is a weather map, anyone know where Gstaad is on it?

No, but they are out and playing again. Marc serving at 0-1 in the second set.

Stepanek-Rosset started again, 4-6 1-0 so it must not be too bad.

and now its suspended again............

Hmmm. I really don't think Roger's going to play tonight (it's 7pm there now). Means two matches tomorrow though, if he wins.

2 matches on the same day is never good....

Yup. the website's got it down for 11 am tomorrow, then the Rosset-Stepanek finish. poor guy. If he wins, he'll play again after 3:30pm.

Here is a weather map, anyone know where Gstaad is on it?
