It's that time again.

I'm hoping Jankovic can get her first title here.

intedomine · 01-18-2009, 07:36 PM

Will be going to at least two days....

Always a good time...

Ivanovic

sexiest woman alive - hope she or Jankovic or an outsider win.

Would be cool to see Fed win again, but the men's field is quite open this year Djokovic and Murray can take it right up to Nadal and Fed on any given day.

YAY!

A tennis thread.

Meanwhile, Ivanovic isn't having it easy out there, she won the first set though.

GirlsAloudFan · 01-19-2009, 12:17 AM

RODDICK ftw.

cobl04 · 01-19-2009, 03:47 AM

Hasn't Jankovic won a slam yet?

Tomic (aus) became the youngest open winner today. Good on him. Australian tennis still fucked.

Vlad n U 2 · 01-19-2009, 06:09 PM

Uh, I already hate that Tomic guy, just as arrogant as Hewitt I reckon.

Auhiz · 01-20-2009, 02:25 AM

Can't wait to get along to this!

Too bad it's always so freakin' hot but it is Melbourne so anything can happen, in theory..

Tomic seems okay, he's only 16 so give him some time. It's the fans with that damn bogan Aussie Aussie Aussie chant who need a good hosing down.

intedomine · 01-20-2009, 07:36 AM

Wicked day at Melbourne Park today....hot, but worth it...

Saw some cracking matches, Monfils, Gasquet, Blake among others.....

I saw Ivanovic in the flesh. She is everything I imagined and more.

Zoomerang96 · 01-20-2009, 07:40 AM

very wide open in the mens this year. here's to hoping federer matches the record.

Screwtape2 · 01-20-2009, 02:09 PM

I saw a graphic of the court temps by every two hours through the first day.

Vlad n U 2 · 01-20-2009, 11:11 PM

A day or so ago in Melb the weather was 40, in a matter of time it was 28!

Never been to the cricket, hey?

Hewitt's out... again...

Vlad n U 2 · 01-21-2009, 05:02 AM

About time Hewitt accepts that he's a crap player nowadays. But I now hear him saying he will get back to the top 10, what a way to hype yourself up.

achtung_girl · 01-21-2009, 05:29 AM

Roddick is boring...

Vlad n U 2 · 01-21-2009, 05:46 AM

We have to watch some 16 year old Australian guy play.

And he's just as annoying as Ley ley Hewitt.

And for gods sakes they've the played the footage of the guy from years ago 3 times today.
