Yep, first ever gramd slam semi final for 27 year old Kyrgios, which is ridiculous given how good a player he is.  That's what being a big flaky drama queen does to you though. I do fancy him to beat Nadal or, more likely, Fritz in the semi.

Oh definitely. The top guys aren’t that arsed about ranking points anyway, it makes no real difference to Djokovic and Nadal.
it’s guys like Norrie, Van Rijtoven and Broady who are really affected. The rankling points these guys should have got from their runs would have made a huge difference to them.
There will be no asterisk beside the name of whoever wins this title, but it is a pity the world number one Medvedev hasn’t been allowed to compete. He hasn’t lived in Russia since he was a kid.

 

That’s the whole idea of sanctions. Guys like Medvedev and other famous Russians have the power to put pressure on Putin and they have influence over the views of ordinary Russians.

 

 

Banning Russian players was the correct decision and the ATP are complicit in the war for removing ranking points.

Castle just ruining this for me

There was one point where Castlebot's circuitry actually seemed to freeze and he went on a wee loop of Nadalspeak.

"He's obviously ailing... he's obviously injured... He's obviously ailing... he's obviously injured."

Nadal's face freezing in disquiet and distaste when was told it was Kyrgios he will be playing was a picture, the excessive blinking and arse-picking halted for once, after awkwardly and shamefacedly narrating his way through Further Tales of Mysterious and Imaginary Injuries #3,769.

Nadal called a press conference at 7:20pm, sounds like he’s going to withdraw with an abdominal tear. How he won that five setter yesterday I am still not sure.
Kyrgios getting a by to the final?

Yep, free pass and some extra rest for Kyrgios looks on the cards, can't see Nadal holding a press conference for any other reason.
