Andy Roddick just lost the 1st set to Lopez in a tie breaker, in the 3rd round of the Australian :ausflag: open , anymore tennis fans out there Andy Murray scheduled to play in a hour , about time a British player won a Grandslam event again :bouncy:

Very interesting Grand Slam in my opinion. If there was big money on the line, I wouldn't know who to put it on.

Fed looked sharp last night. I thought he played well in first round against very tough opponent. I am a Fed fan and would like to see him win, but the run has to end at some point.

Nadal? I see him slipping up in quarters or semis. Murray? Maybe, but he is getting a rep for choking in majors.

Del Potro? No, he is vulnerable. Djokovic? Maybe. Daveydenko? I think this might be his time - especially if he takes out Fed in quarters.

Overall, I wouldn't be surprised to see a darkhorse take the title. AO is known for darkhorse champs.

The AO is hard to follow here in the USA. The night matches are played here at 3:00 am. Still, it is hard to resist not staying up extra late for a marquee matchup down under.

Marty Fish. Will steamroll into the finals, only to lose to Manuel Orentes.(sp)

Yeah obviously i am a Andy Murray fan seeing as hes British , but if he chokes again hes Scottish , still hes young enough and talented enough , sometimes hes his worst own enemy , hes not been past the 4th round in the Aussie , think hes got a much better chance of winning Wimbledon if he can get past Federer , which he as shown hes been able to do in the past , just not when it counts in a major :ausflag: :wife:
