ORDER OF PLAY -- Australian Open 2010

[NamRanger]

Don't even think it!!! :shock:
I was already slow out of the blocks today because of that 4-hour Blake/Delpo match.

Still .... looking forward to Markos/David

better late than never ... you're all very welcome!

Set #5 here we go!

 

[Love Game]

Set #5 here we go!

of course ...... and I've been listening to those cypriot chants for 3 hours? 4 hours? It's getting nerve racking to me, so I could imagine how it might be for Ferrer! ... although he's handling it very well, I must say!

 

[Blinkism]

I feel the epic 5 setter coming with Baghdatis outlasting Ferrer in a 6 hour marathon.

Move aside malakas, we have a new prophet!

:lol:

Who's winning the AO, Nam?

[jimbo333]

Well is Murray going to start serving better?

If not he will definitely get knocked out in 4th round or quarters!

 

[nabbydian]

Angelique Kerber(GER) vs. Svetlana Kuznetsova(RUS)[3]
- sld be over in 2 sets

[nabbydian]

this will be the best match for the mens:

Andy Roddick(USA)[7] vs. Fernando Gonzalez(CHI)[11]

My Reason: it will be most competitive and the Gonzalez killer forehand will entertain immensely

Best match for womens:

Maria Kirilenko(RUS) vs. Dinara Safina(RUS)[2]

My Reason: Makiri

 

[nabbydian]

That stinks!

Joker's path gets even easier.

it doesnt get any easier than that - the scoreline sld be similar to joker match today

​

Is this all star lineup or what ??

 

[clayman2000]

Roddick's gotta be happy. Night match will definitely help him over Gonzo.

On the flip side, the guys with laver day session tickets shouldnt be expecting any long rallies.

 

[Love Game]

Is this all star lineup or what ??

Suddenly the list seems so short ....... It should definitely be a better day than yesterday was (which wouldnt be hard, of course)!

 

[ruerooo]

Suddenly the list seems so short ....... It should definitely be a better day than yesterday was (which wouldnt be hard, of course)!

I'm surprised they're thinking the Russian ladies would move to Rod Laver. If Andy takes three hours, they're not done until two. If Rafa takes another three, they're not done until five-thirty (AUS time).

 

[MichaelNadal]

Are the Murray and Nadal matches both in an hour? Or one before the other?

 

[Love Game]

I'm surprised they're thinking the Russian ladies would move to Rod Laver. If Andy takes three hours, they're not done until two. If Rafa takes another three, they're not done until five-thirty (AUS time).

I suppose it all depends on which Arena becomes available first. Cilic/delPotro .... their previous matches have both gone 4 sets: The first one took 182 minutes, and the second one took 153 minutes. The two women's matches preceding Delpo/Marin are unpredictable. I just remember Jie Zheng having several 3-hour matches at the 08 Olympics.

 

[Love Game]

Are the Murray and Nadal matches both in an hour? Or one before the other?

Just noticed your question .... Murray's up first (in about 1/4 hour), followed by Nadal!

[wintintu]

How do people see the Verdasco/Davydenko one going?

 

[nabbydian]

How do people see the Verdasco/Davydenko one going?

high quality tennis but i think Davydenko is playing too well at the moment. Davy in 3

 

[wintintu]

yeah, agreed

 

[TennisFan3]

How do people see the Verdasco/Davydenko one going?

I would be really disappointed if Verdasco wins. Verdasco is a mental midget and he could just waste a potential high quality QF match b/w Davy and Fed. Verdasco couldn't take a set off Fed in a slam, if Fed had both his legs broken.

 

[Fedace]

How is it possible that Nico Almagro is still in the tournament ??

 

[patty_mnouchkine]

How is it possible that Nico Almagro is still in the tournament ??

just what i wanted to know

 

[AndyArodRoddick]

Hey guys! What time you guys expecting Roddick and Cilic match will be ? I mean, what time it is going to be, what do you think ?

 

[nabbydian]

How is it possible that Nico Almagro is still in the tournament ??

i haven seen Almagro at all and i have been watching the AO everyday for many hrs

 

[Ledigs]

Looks like Venus will be on espn

 

[Arafel]

Hey guys! What time you guys expecting Roddick and Cilic match will be ? I mean, what time it is going to be, what do you think ?

Probably during the day, because Nadal-Murray is more of a showcase match and will be the night contest.

 

[Love Game]

Looks like Venus will be on espn

lol ... I feel your pain! :lol:

Can't you watch online for more choices?

 

[JoelDali]

Dear God why Venus.

 

[OddJack]

So what type of underwear Venus has? It looks like brazilian swim suit to me

 

[nabbydian]

Schiavone seems to be giving Venus a real fight now

 

[shadows]

hrm, I'm going to have to get some sleep. Hopefully wake up for some of davy/nando, but if I fail miserably then see you all for Fed/Hewitt I guess

 

[nabbydian]

same here - venus on tele is a good chance for me to catch some sleep

 

[Ledigs]

So what type of underwear Venus has? It looks like brazilian swim suit to me

i saw that : ) :O)

 

[Outbeyond]

And I'm growing really sick of Mary Carillo's voice and commentary. Eeesch....
