So I wake up to see rafa in a 5th set with American smczei wtf

 

[bksballer89]

2 damn good men matches to end the night....2 awful wta matches in the night session

Tomic won in 4

The Australian Open really loves giving their aussies the night session. Hewitt & stosur are on laver in the night session while radwanska, Serena, & novak are on in the day session. If I'm not Australian I'll be on Margaret court tonight for azarenka vs wozniacki

The Australian Open really loves giving their aussies the night session.

the US Open does that as well...at least they did until 6-7 years ago when American tennis talent completely dried up.

Isner the Ent is up first on show court 2.

And Venus is playing Lauren Davis on Margaret Court Arena.

 

[bksballer89]

Good matches so far.

Serena down 5-3

Kei is tied at 1 set all

Isner up 2 sets to none but down a break in the 3rd

 

[cezero]

nice seeing serena wake up

 

[bksballer89]

Up 3-0 now.

It is over.

I'll be shocked if Zvonareva win more than 2 games now.

 

[bksballer89]

Huge break by Kei to avoid the match going to a 5th set.

5-5 in the 4tth now.

Playing in this heat is no freaking joke

very nice comeback from keys to really just dominate dellacqua in the final 2 sets of the match

her backhand looks so much like lindsay's right now. crazy.

 

[bksballer89]

Azarenka is officially back

 

[bksballer89]

Terrible day for the aussies. Hewitt let them down after going up 2 sets while Stosur & Dellacqua got dominated by Vandeweghe & Keys

I wish I could stay up all hours and watch tennis, lol.

Well, I can in the summer, so I guess I shouldn't complain.

 

[cezero]

by the way, Benjamin Becker was the guy who beat Agassi into retirement.

i can only hope that hewitt does the same after this loss. it would be fitting.

watch out for janowicz this year, too

he was injured for a lot of last year, but seems healthy again for the first time in a long time

huge game, and he moves about as well as any giant out there right now

Same here. Got work too early to watch these days. On the weekend I'll probably stay up though I try to watch from 7 PM est unti 1 am est but if the matches aren't good towards the end of the night I'll turn off the tv at 12 or 1230 instead

Working sucks. I miss basically all of Wimbledon & the French open these days.

Isn't he the same one who took Murray 4 or 5 sets the yr Murray won Wimbledon?

 

[bksballer89]

Dimitrov & Baghdatis tied at 1 set apiece

 

[cezero]

fun match between dimitrov and baghdatis

been watching from the beginning, and it's every even

i question baghdatis's fitness even though he's one of the best ball strikers on tour, so i think dimitrov will take his legs away eventually

 

[bksballer89]

I love watching Marco....anytime I go to the US Open I always try to watch him in person

 

[cezero]

his name is marcos, but yeah, he's good
