Confirmed, unfortunately Tsonga does not have the same mental fortitude and tenacity of the Big 4.

Get ready for an epic Quarter Final against Djoker.
Now that Tsonga is gone, it's all about Djokovic. Murray doesn't stand a chance against Djokovic.

Murray is in pretty good form, the best this year so far, so Novak would be wise not to take him lightly.
A 5 set slugfest would not be desirable with Andy.

Eugenie Bouchard now out as well in the Women's draw:

Makarova roars past ailing Bouchard | News | 2014 US Open Official Site - A USTA Event

Stan Wawrinka and Tommy Robredo currently locked at 1 set all in the other Men's 4th Round.
Robredo did very well last match to absorb the early onslaught by Kyrgios, and then use his guile and experience to win out.

I grew up watching McEnroe and never did like him as a person (on the court). Still don't like him in the Master's Series that he plays. But much respect for the length of time he's on the TV today - doing well as an analyst - marathon man.....think he was on from 11:30 to 6-7 pm covering the matches.

Enjoyed watching her the previous round. Watched some of today's match when CBS switched over. She's only a teenager - was starting to get concerned when they were checking her BP. At what age do you take special protective precautions with a kid? Adults can push themselves as much as they want, but a kid needs someone to pull her off the court for her own protection.

Who's in charge of this mockery?
Well, the Tennis Channel was only used on the weekend for late night matches when CBS didn't want to broadcast in primetime and ESPN was broadcasting college football. (Tennis Channel was also broadcasting alternate matches relative to ESPN's featured matches from 1-7 PM ET on weekdays; they did also have exclusive live coverage between 11 AM and 1 PM ET.) I doubt we'll see Tennis Channel with any U.S. Open live matches after Sunday night.

Johnny Mac is still covering a live match (Wawrinka/Robredo) on ESPN as I type this (about 8:20 PM ET).
