I was extremely lucky. I have been watching and supporting him since I was 5 and admire him for his humble personality: I'll attach a pic here-

Poor Roger, he has to beat Tsonga (4th), Murray (QF), Nadal (SF) and Djokovic (F) to win in it. Djokovic has a pretty breezy draw though

It'll be difficult for him especially since it's nearing the end of his career.

What makes him different is the fact that he is always a great sport regardless of whether he wins or not. That's why he's so popular, though he is no longer placed in the top 5. Will be rooting for him in this years AO, but as mentioned before his rank caused him to get a bad draw and ultimately as a result he may struggle.

Dammit! Thought Nasal vs Tonic was tonight but it's actually tomorrow. Lame...

Bet you're going for Nadal. I hope Tomic loses: sorry to anyone that's actually going for him lol.

I always liked Federer for not just his ability on the court, but his attitude as well.

^ yep

Lol, course I'm rooting for Nasal. I never liked Tomic because I find him quite arrogant.

and cocky.

Go Rafter!

 

[Recondit]

The line up for day 2 is so much better than day 1 For his confidence for the rest of the season hopefully Tomic can raise his level and play a tight match with Nadal

Matosevic match against Nishikori was a disappointment. I thought Nishikori would die in the heat as he did against Hewitt.

Its a shame that Matosevic has to continually face seeded and tough unseeded opponents in GS 1st rd matches - 0-12 now :'(

Re: [TENNIS] The Official 2014 Australian Open Thread

Two of my favourite players through to the next round today.

Kei and Roger.

Now, hoping Hewitt goes through as well.

Can't wait for Tomic's 0-6 0-6 0-6 (triple bagel) destruction at the hands of the super monster topsin god Rafael Nadal later tonight.

Re: [TENNIS] The Official 2014 Australian Open Thread

That Matosevic-Nishikori game though. He came so close to winning his first game in a grand slam... feel for him!

Re: [TENNIS] The Official 2014 Australian Open Thread

Delpo just lost the 1st set to some Williams person.

And Hewitt is down 2 sets against Seppi... not sure if a comeback will be made...
