  1. @SI_BTBaseline I'm STILL processing yesterday's Serena affair.
  2. Venus: "I think if (Serena) could have gotten thru that match..this tournament (would have been) a lot different for her. But that's sport."
  3. Play called for the day.
  4. Play looks to be stopped on all courts now due to rain.
  5. Thursday's OOP: bit.ly/2B6YuX #rg12
  6. She was playing the No. 3 in the world, but Venus looked really out of sorts in that match. #rg12
  7. RT @SI_BTBaseline: Somewhere Sharapova and Li just rolled eyes. "Trust us, *that's* not rain. Keep playing, nerds." Or something like that.
  8. Glatch and Venus on verge of losing. Stephens into 3R, Lepchenko, McHale and L. Davis up in 2R tomorrow.
  9. In the 'missed that' category, No. 1s Huber-Raymond upset in 1R by Kanepi-S.Zhang 6-3 75. #rg12
  10. Venus looks decidedly....forlorn. #rg12
  11. King also won't play Nottingham, for which she is entered, if still in doubles here. #rg12
  12. V King says she hasn't felt quite herself since coming down with virus at Indian Wells, will undergo some tests in a couple days.
  13. RT @SteveTignor: Mise En Scene: The Lenglen Ramp, where the status differences at Roland Garros are clearest: tinyurl.com/89b4f34
  14. RT @SI_BTBaseline: So much quiet dignity in Baker. Thru it all, never acted like this was anything less than what he expected from himself.
  15. Baker train finally comes to a stop, but what a fun ride. Ran out of gas. #rg12
  16. I think Baker must have borrowed Oudin's "Believe" sneakers....Whoa.
  17. Stephens advances easily over Mattek-Sands 61 61, next up M. Johansson of France. And then? Olympics? #rg12
  18. Berdych-Anderson winner plays Delpo-Cilic winner. That'd make a fearsome two-on-two game.
  19. Baker up 3-1 in 3rd....Stay tuned.
  20. Baker could have been in Lost Generation story I wrote in Jan. However this match ends, he's clearly been found. usat.ly/AjujdG #rg12
