Kyrgios Upsets Djokovic in Acapulco
http://www.espn.com/tennis/story/_/id/18813055/tennis-nick-kyrgios-upset-novak-djokovic-come-surprise
My money is still on Djokovic in the Majors. He won't make the preparation mistake again for those.
I will say though that seeing Federer win, or Nadal, and maybe even Murray at this stage of the competition is still satisfying. I would like to see a few more Fed wins though and expect Novak to take more as well. Nadal, well he's fighting injuries that will continue to plague his aggressive physical game.
Suggestion to Nadal: Work on some new methods. Serve and volley, more drops, and find a way to flatten the ball out some of the time to save energy.

For two hundred dollars this is a dream come true for important match play in the realm of amateurs. I've been waiting for this and I think things will only get better.
Soon, we'll have tennis rackets that help analyze strokes. Oh wait, they already do.
Things are moving fast.

Or at least it used to be. Maybe the stigma of doping suspensions has finally reached a point where the tournament needs to look at the big picture. Let's see what happens.

Desk Job needs to be counteracted with walking
