Did anyone watch the Hewitt Vs Nalbandian aussie open quarterfinal today , one of the most stunning gmes i have ever watched
gr8 sense of determination and fighting spirit shown by the 2 players .

Any aussies who watched it on Australia Day ! A gr8 gift to the nation by Lleyton Hewitt . I think that the match must have been on till midnight Australian Time
I saw the whole game as it was on during the evening here in India.

It was indeed an awesome game! Damn Hewitt!

Nalbandian should have won


But anyways,go FEDERER!!!!!!!! BUt I like Safin too

 

[aditya123]

Same with me , i like both federer and safin but have to cheer for federer .
I doubt whether Hewitt will have any energy left after the 2 epic 5 setters against Nadal and Nalbandian to take on Roddick on friday
BTW neither of the 2 (hewitt or Nalbandian) deserved to lose today .

I particularly liked one shot by nalbandian in the game which hewitt broke in th 5th set ,
Nalbandian hit the hewitt lob between his legs to take the game to deuce

 

[gold639]

yeah I will be supporting Federer too


And I hate both Roddick AND Hewitt.IT should have been Federer vs Hewitt and Roddick vs Safin.....then it could've been Safin vs Federer in the final

I don't hate anyone really, Hewitt is the only one left waving the Aussie flag so I'll have to support him. He's a real chance of matching it with Roddick, although would have been better off without those two 5 setters

Yeah Federer is the best tennis player in the world by far, and the best match i have seen in a while has to be the quater final between Aggassi and Federer, Aggassi was so gutsy but Federer showed his class, a 3 set win for Federer did not portray Aggassi's class

 

[jonah]

Yep, Federer is the dogs. He's got it all; touch, power, temperament. He'll be up there with the likes of Sampras and Borg soon, if not already.

 

[neilthomas89]

okay the mens winner is undoubtably gonna be Federer, but who do you reckon will take the women's crown, personally i feel Sharapova has got the skill, determination and power to beat any woman

 

[aditya123]

sharapova must win the ladies singles title ,

 

[neilthomas89]

unfortunatly she lost to Serena Williams this morning, who will play either Davenport or Denchy in the final

 

[jdbais]

It will be davenport.

1st Set-7-5 to Federer
