Rainy Queens Club

A few surprises this afternoon at rainy Queens. Marin Cilic has pulled out with a knee injury giving Andy Murray an easy pass into the semi finals. Sam Querrey has failed to defend his title losing in three sets to Britains James Ward ranked at 216. 

ORDER OF PLAY - FRIDAY 10 JUNE 2011...Back to the future, lol

Big surprise, it's dark, miserable and raining here in Derbyshire this morning. Hopefully it will be better in London this afternoon for Queens. It looks like the match of the afternoon will be Nadal and Tsonga, especially with Nadal surprisingly dropping a set to Stepanek yesterday. All matches looking good though with the top 3 seeds still in the tournament. Also last years winner Sam Querrey is still in contention but has to finish his match with James Ward from last night which stands at 1 set all.
