Christina McHale was up 2-0 40-0 in the third game of the the third set vs. Serena Williams and blew it, but is still hanging tough at 4-4.

And then loses serve and gets steamrolled in the final game. Oh well.

Incredible streak comes to an end. What a run he had at Grand slams, big upset here. If Federer doesn't win this don't think he will ever win one again.

Tsonga just broke Isner in the 5th set to take a 18-17 lead. Real wild stuff.

Feds runs into cilic again of course. Too late in his career for him to play with the big serve, big ground game guys.

Nice. Was half hoping for the reverse black cat. I had to leave after the first two sets but it looked like a repeat of the us open.
