I understand the USTA loves its primetime matches, but put the stupid doubles on Armstrong and make sure you get the singles matches in. Of course today that wouldn't have mattered, but Nadal and Gonzo would've completed their quarter Thursday and there still would've been a chance at a Sunday final. Now it's Monday at the earliest.
