All according to seeding, more than likely.

Lleyton has done heroically well to get this far but, like Tomic against Roger - in fact even more so - he just doesn't have what he needs to bother Nole.

Murray and Tsonga just need to make sure their minds don't go walkabout and they will be fine.

I'm not quite so certain about Ferrer v Gasquet but would expect Ferrer to prevail unless Richard can get it done very quickly.

I agonised over putting Tsonga into the semis but in the end had him losing to Murray.

Read a tweet saying Gasquet is now 1-10 in R4 GS appearances!

I'm rooting for Djoko (which doesn't happen very often) - I hate all those Hewitt C'Mons

Traitor!

Re: Australian Open: ATP, Day 08 23 Jan 2012 12:56 #20344

djokovic duly issued a breadstick in set 1!

Llyeton trying to get a second game on serve in set 2 and Djoko just rifled a backhand down the line and Hewitt let a massive F Bomb rip out his mouth!

Re: Australian Open: ATP, Day 08 23 Jan 2012 12:57 #20345

Djoko overpowers him and leads 2-1 second set. Three successive breaks!
