Hehehehe!

Ok, I'll admit he wasn't as annoying in this match... Yes... It's the COME ON's that I can't stand... He can be ok I guess... :p
Me and Jim Courrier love the come on...

He lost cause he didn't use it; it's his biggest weapon :D

LOL

I actually like Jim Courier! He's the only commentator that I like... Apart from the ones that know what they're talking about! His come on is his biggest weapon... Which means he really is a crap player! LOL Jk... Couldn't let it pass! His best skill is to piss-off the other players, which can be funny and irratating! :p

I WAS HOPING THAT HE'D BREAK BACK IN THE FOURTH SET!!! :burn:

Hewitt wasn't playing his best in that last set and definitely not playing smart tennis, unlike Hingis who strategically plans her moves every point.
lol! SAME!

We're the only two who wanted Hewitt to win :D

Nah! I only find him ok during the first 2 sets, then he improves either because his opponent is getting tired, or because he's just a better player during the drawn out matches! :p

LOL EVERYONE should take a few pointers from Martina! I still can't get over how light on her feet she can be! She looks great too! :D

He played badly in the fist two sets.

I still think he is very talented; he was number one in the world for a while. He's not at his best now. :D

Mmmmmhm, mmmmmhm! Sure!

He didn't play to badly, but if you say he did, then sure, I'm not going to argue with that! :p :D

OMG! Andy, Justine and Lindsay are on tomorrow! YAY! And I'll be home! Oh! And Martina's playing in the doubles with and against... People I don't know... But that's ok! The more Martina the better!

I think Stosur and Luczak might have a chance of getting further... I'd say semi-final... Who knows, the final even! :p

John Alexander is so incredibly biased in favour of the Australian players. he's the worst commentator ever. i wish he'd shut up.

I just got back from Melbourne. I had the most awesome time. Hingis is playing really well but as much as I love her it is because she hasn't really been challenged, everyone knows vera is a headcase and the girl from finland didn't play that well. So it will be interesting to see how she fares when she is put under pressure, especially her 2nd serve. Her part of the draw is opening up nicely though with Mary losing, Amelie being a headcase and Kim being injured.

Hewitt has always been overated and has been playing shite all summer, and sturggled to win his 1st round match so i'm not suprised he lost.

On the basis of what I saw, i'm thinking womens semi's:
Justinevs Serena (I know shes overweight and hasn't played much but she was practising with alot of intensity and I don't like Sharapova)

Hingis vs Clijsters

Darkhorses: Vadisova, Krajicek and Stosur perhaps with the crowd support

well said and explained. not sure about vadisova and stosur, but krajicek is real god dam good at such a young age.

oh and i also forgot about clijsters. its just that she has a real bad injury otherwise she would kick ass. And sharapova is in great form, so the chances of serina look real bad
