Day 6 Round Robin Order Of Play
Day Session: 12.30 pm GMT (7.30 am ET)
Dlouhy/Paes vs. Mirnyi/Ram
Followed by
[2] Rafael Nadal vs. [3] Novak Djokovic
Rafa is playing for pride. And his No. 2 ranking. If Djoke wins the title, he can replace the Spaniard as second best. Djoke can lose the match and still advance, but he'll need Kolya to lose as well.
I think.
Night Session: 7 pm GMT (2 pm ET)
Bryan/Bryan vs. Kubot/Marach
Followed by
[6] Nikoloay Davydenko vs. [8] Robin Söderling
Can Andy Roddick's substitute win the title as he did in 2005? Stay tuned.

Matches don't get much tighter than these.
If you're a fan of Murray, you're not coming up from under today. First time ever a player is eliminated in a round robin tiebreak decided by number of games won.
Guess he had a brutal draw after all.
