Matches at Melbourne !

I have been missing out on all the excitement at Melbourne thanks to exams and all that :(   I am finding it really difficult to believe that Murray fell to Verdasco :(   The fact that it was a five setter suggests that it was a closely contested match !  Now looking at the remaining contenders for some vague reason I want Roddick to win …. he deserves to be much more than a one slam wonder. No surprise in Choke-o-vic retiring :P

It’d be nice if Nadal completed the set of Grand Slam trophies. I’d be delighted if Simon takes the trophy :mrgreen:   Verdasco is the dark horse of the tournament. Guess having a pretty girlfriend has boosted his confidence and looks like she has been distracted. Well she seems to be the Spain Davis Cup team’s mascot after all they did win Davis Cup despite the absence of Nadal. As for Tsonga I am not fond of him. Period.

Question of the week : Will Federer surprise  everyone and walk off with his #14 ? Hmmm.

Over to the Rod Laver Arena :D

Will Iceman defend his title or will it be home favorite Hewitt who takes home the trophy ?

Will MaSha make it to the finals or semis for that matter ?

How far will home favorite Molik go ?

Will Mauresmo repeat her ‘06 performance in the tournament ?

Will Serena defend or will Henin do what she couldnt in 06 as she was forced to retire ?

I am fed up of FedEx,I hope he goes down with that stomach virus that caught hold of him last week or some injury so that someone else gets to make it to the finals.All said and agreed that he’s No:1 and undoubtedly holds all those records barring Bjorg’s,it’s time we get to something different on the court.I don’t care if it’s Nadal or Roddick or the red hot Chilean Gonzalez or wait Baghdatis ;) , someone’s gotta beat this guy ! I hope it’s the entertainer Djokovic ;)

As for the women’s singles,it’d be great to see how Davenport fares after turning mommy coupla months back.Her first round opposite Sharapova is certainly something to look out for :D

And oh well I hope and pray the Bryan brothers defend and they win for the next whole decade *grins* I don’t think I’ll mind that :D

Blue is all over the place what with the court surface being changed to plexi cushion :P and it’d be interesting to see how the Hawkeye is put to use :D

Let’s wait and watch I say :D

Playboy is out Borg is in ! ;)
