Maybe we're envious of other countries having world class tennis players  :-\

So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

I am sick of the bloody commentators that talk through points. Shut the stuff up and tell your stories at the end of the set

And what?

Put the focus actually back on the matches being played  :gobdrop :gobdrop

people complain about Club membership prices.

Any night match this Open would've been a complete waste of your money not to mention most matches boring

Such average matches and really the only value for money u get at the open is Ground Passes in the first 5 days.

They should just forward it to Federer vs Nadal in the final.

Maybe just Federer after Nadal was beaten in straight sets.
Although I think Djokovic will give Federer a great game. The winner will definentely come from that pairing of semi finalists.

Based on what Murray has said publicly since he lost the final let alone getting flogged on the court you'd doubt he'll ever win one of the grand slams. Just doesn't have that killer instinct where winning means everything.

Sam Stosur has to be the biggest choker in Australian sport, out first round to the lowest ranked woman at the tournament without even a whimper LMAO  :lol

Just not cut out for the top flight. I blame the terrible sunglasses  8)

Cruisey win by Bernie against former no.3 Davydenko  :thumbsup

Hewitt is washed up, he'll be out next round

Yep the injuries and age have caught up with Hewitt But at least he shows heart. Something Stosur needs to start doing. She's mentally weak if shes not clicked fully on she can be beaten by anyone. Tomic shows again why his probably our best hope to be our next Grand Slam winner. Can't see Stosur winning one.
