Unfortunately I haven't seen a fair schedule in a while. Probably more than an year or 2.

was just thinking that! totally lame, it's not that hard to line things up so all the top 1/2 would play right after rain and the bottom half later, or vice versa

Re: The Rain Haters Thread!!! (Weather Updates/Complaining)

Luckily Fed/Wawa and Kolya/Nalby still on show

I agree it's a very poor one. It gives Murray advantage over Nalby/Kolya who I think will battle long.

Well, that schedule makes sure that as long as we have 4 hours of non-rain, the singles tournament won't be out of schedule, which is good because the forecast for the next 4 days is more rain.

That's what I think. The organizers just want to get all the matches in.
