I can't believe how fast this Open seems to have whizzed by, although I am looking forward to the rest as it is what's I've determined will be the end of my summer for some months now :)

Yes gone quick, had a lot on this week so not traded so much as I would liked to, back to it from now for the weekend semis and finals.

NFL starts this weekend (one last night also) so might get a bit more into trading that this season.

I'm pretty tired, so looking forward to getting my evenings back and doing something other than trading.

Has it gone well for you guys ?

I found it tough... traded most matches well (didn't find much margin), but been suffering with some outsized losers in recent months and I had a couple in this tournament which set me back. Looking back through my P/L of recent times is pretty illuminating. Too much opinion, not enough consistent unbiased trading going on, and not enough patience. Found the massive fast liquidity a bit of an issue too, looking forward to some smaller tournaments.

I'm OK, but I'm quite minor compared to you on Tennis. I'm still in Racing mode till the evening stuff finishes this week. Sort of wish they would push then Tennis back a couple of weeks!

The first week of this open was better for me (avg per match), I'd have to check but thinking about it I'm sure that's becoming a trend in Grand Slams with me but generally happy with the season so far on a whole

Starting to think I'd like to join you on the horses for trading purposes..! thankfully my pure punting strategy on horses has been productive again this year, but I could do with a break from the constant ups and downs from tennis (mostly self inflicted I should add..).

Shame Rafa's knee gave in, he struggled with it v Khatchanov, then the market simply wiped the slate clean with it after he won that one.

Y, I was hoping to see a good tussle between these two

You think Rafa would be 1.7 fully fit against Del Potro? Not for me.

By the way there's been 13 retirements in the mens and only 1 in the womens

It's curious how Williams has seemed to struggle at recent US Open tournaments. Like the pressure is getting to her.

Probably a turning point here?

Market's gone mad for that point penalty.
