    Ivanovich needs to step it up here. The longer Venus plays the stronger she is looking.

    Ana cranked it up when she needed to.

    Now I have to hope that Djokovic can beat Ferrer. I like Djokovic.

    Djokovic just steamrolled Ferrer 6-0 in the 1st set.

    Ivanovic, Jankovic, and Djokovic all Serbs and all still alive in the Aussie Open. Kinda cool if you ask me!!

    Federer was challenged by Blake, but still didn't drop a set. As this tourney wears on, he is only going to get better.

    Grand Slam number 13.....count it!

    Federer will win this tournament easy.

    Every Grand slam people think a certain player (differs per tournament) is playing so good that he has a chance to beat Federer. But every time Federer just destroys them.

    I still believe Novak has the game to beat Fed, it's all about how Novak is mentally.

    How good was Tsonga's performance tonight, he dominated Nadal :eek:

    Tsonga looked AMAZING beating Rafa. Where did he come from?

    France of all places..... ;)

    Tsonga has a BIG game. I am shocked he was able to push Nadal around from the baseline like he did.

    Big serves
    Nice ground game
    Solid net game
    Unseeded

    I imagine Tsonga has little shot at the title, but he certainly is an up and comer.

    the squeaky shoe shuffle ivanovic does on her opponent's service is quite unsporting.
