...I'll show myself out.
I had left the "end color" indicator off of the player above you, so their redding out bled down to you. You are not supposed to be redded out. I I have fixed that.

Damned, as I had feared, that Sinner pick 2 days ago will eliminate me today (Norrie).

(Blatant reverse-jinx attempt on this Norrie-Rublev match.)

Sometimes at this stage SP is almost over. This time not even close in both draws.

I am impressed. As you say, many SP's are over by day 7. We have so many players still alive that I say we have a good chance of people beating the draw in both sides.

There have been very few huge upsets of middle ranked players. Maybe today Ruud takes out 24 Berrettini's albeit this late nothing is really a big surprise.

True, I have been playing for what? maybe 15 years? And I'm always out by around Day 4. The last time I made it this far was when I (with several others) won the pool during one of the times Serena won Wimby.

Well, it seems we will have a bloodbath today, because Ruud is simply crushing Berrettini. But sure, this is no upset; actually, Ruud is ranked higher so...

Not a bad run. I had not made the second week in ages. Just got the Ruud/Berrettini order inverted.
Now I hope Ruud can beat Kyrgios. I give him 2%.

Whoah I was thinking I was down on ruud's chances in that (possible) match. That kyrgios fully engaged would probably hit him off the court. But two percent? Way too low. For what it's worth he just beat someone with a similar style of play (I know berrettini didnt play great) in straight sets. And also every match kyrgios plays, there is about a ten percent chance he just doesnt really feel like competing or even playing that day. Even more so exacerbated by someone keeping a match close. I dont think that is an old narrative based on one awesome and mostly focused wimbledon run. I do think khachanov should be a good matchup for him.

I give him almost no chances. Kyrgios has been engaged lately. We saw it at Wimbledon, and he toyed with Medvedev.
Khachanov has to serve at 90% and crush every FH, hoping they will land inside.
I hope I am wrong and you are right, but I can't see Ruud handling Kyrgios serve.
