US Open 2018

Well... The draws are done and it seems Nadal has managed to get a pretty sweet ride in his quarter. Only Shap, Thiem and er... Anderson.
Reckon he'd be a pretty safe bet at this point!
 
On the Prime US Open page it says, "Watch live Grand Slam tennis from the US Open Tennis Championships (27 August - 9 September 2018). Catch up on the best moments on the US Open 2018 Highlights page."

Has anyone found the said 'Highlights Page'?
 
I'm really disappointed that prime aren't doing any sort of catch-up service. No full match replays, highlights, or highlight shows. So it's stay up all night or miss half the matches. Gutted. Djokovic is second on Arthur Ashe today so will be able to watch that before bed at least.

Edit: A Highlights page has now been added to prime. Currently showing two options for Day One. One, a half-hour highlights package, and Two, a 'Match Of The Day'. Better than nothing!

Well, the battle of the viches has turned out to be a great match so far. Djokovic ahead now but it's been a tough one for an opening round match. Not over yet either and still not a certainty for Nole.

Interesting to see Lendl sitting court side again. Of course this time it's in the Zverev box. It will make for an interesting dynamic if Murray and Zverev play each other. Lendl will be able to pat himself on the back no matter who wins!

Greg Rusedski is a supremely annoying commentator

Spend five minutes listening to Annabelle Croft sometime. You'll be begging for Greg.

Just listened to the latest Tennis Podcast. David Law stated that prime have been listening to user complaints and are looking at improvements. Hopefully that means full match replays, but we'll see.

Looking forward to Wawrinka and Murray's matches today.
 
Both Brits in a fourth set battle to stay in. Hanging on by the fingernails.

Edit: Well that sucks. Both out within minutes of each other. Look at the similarity in scores in both matches. This was with both matches live and simultaneous:

Uncanny!

Great show by Verdasco. Well deserved.

Kyrgios the Tank Engine playing now. Lost the first set. Could tank the next two in record time!

Edit: Dammit, coach Lahyani gave him a pep talk and accidentally activated God Mode!

An absolute joy watching the Kvitova match. Not a single scream, squeal or shreik the entire match. GG Petra.
