It would have to be 8-6 for the final set in a 3 set match.

That rule only goes for Grand Slams. At other tournaments the 3rd set can be decided by a tie-break if needed.

Eurosport just been put back another 20 minutes to 3.05 uk, but staying at 2.45 on eurosport hd allegedly.

edit: HD now put back till 3pm as well, but its only 1-1 in the tennis, i think eurosport coverage is going to start after the race finishes :/

Nope. 3rd set is also tie break.

I bet it will be 21- 19 in the tie break as well, and it being womens tennis, rallies can go on for ever.

That always happens in inferior sporting contests

Good to see 5 BMC riders right up the front! Cadel must be feeling good though I dislike this years route especially as imo suits gilbert more.

Really? I think this route favors the climbers more.
