Self-indulgent post (sorry) but as a huge Andy fan, I'm beside myself excited at getting to see him live and in-person play tomorrow for the very first time. Bucket list item checked off!

Helpfully, the open have put Cam, Jo, Heather, and Dan on the same court so that's where you'll find me if there are any other New York-based brits going tomorrow!
Enjoy ! Is Andy on the main court ?

Indeed. Andy vs Tsitsipas is second on Ashe. Proceedings rhere kick off at noon local, 5 pm BST, with Madison Keys vs Sloane Stephens, a repeat of the 2017 final, won by Stephens.

Court 10 is the Brit court from 4 pm BST, with in order Dan, Heather, Jo, and Cam.

Ha, thanks, I was just about to check who else there was on Monday. That'll be it, with Emma and Katie on Tuesday.

Who is commenting on Dans match? - one where I need an App that allows you to hear the ball strike & players, but cuts out the comments.

Stop it - quote/unquote.

Dan looks to be in a battle judging by the scores ?

Yes. Just gone 2 sets to 1 up though. 6-3 6-7(6) 6-4

Overall he is 3/13 on BP convertions vs 1/5.

Ist set he had the single break.

2nd set he was *1-4 down and broke back in bringing it back to 4-4*. He had one SP in the TB ( on return )

3rd set he has had the single break, converting on his 2nd SP in the last game.

So he will serve first in set 4

Sloane Stephens edges a tight 3rd set TB against Madison Keys. So Andy will be on Ashe soon.

Dan 3-0* up in the 4th set.
