All best wishes Andy, make it a successful start

Draw is out. Andy plays MacKenzie McDonald of USA in 1st round then ——- Eeek!! —- Kyle Edmund who has a bye!

[Linda]

This is really reminding me of when Andy kept being drawn against Tim.

When is Andy playing his 1st match

Nobody knows yet

[Josephine]

How awful Andy is drawn against Kyle again. I really, really, really hope he beats him if he gets that far.

[LC the fan]

Great interview on you tube (as above, thanks Angie) - so good to hear him feeling comfortable with what he's hoping to achieve for this year

You say that now, but once you know Andy is playing it is hard to resist having a look !!!!

[Hawkeye]

Play finally about to start.

[Hawkeye]

Rubin beats Isner in straights, but I'm off to bed...

[lynne]

First set to Nishikori 7-6 against young Denis Shapovalov



Nishikori gets the win 7-6, 6-3


NOW FOR ANDY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[cazza99]

oop for Friday - https://www.atpworldtour.com/en/scores/current/washington/418/daily-schedule

Andy last on

[Hawkeye]

Tsitsipas beats Goffin in straights in the first QF.

[patlowe]

Well after all the crazy scheduling, the weather delays and all the hubble bubble, it's 2 "youngsters" in the final! Interesting match up between Sascha and de Minaur.

[JAMES4578]

Watched 2nd semi and became quite a battle with De Minaur and Rublev. Alex came back from 6-2 down in 2nd set TB to force decider. Sacha though should retain title.

[patlowe]

Didn't Rublev have play twice yesterday?

[JAMES4578]

Didn't Rublev have play twice yesterday?

oh yes he did, though quarter seemed fairly comfortable-still was not ideal.
