Wawrinka got what he deserved last year at AO, victory against Djokovic! Now only Dimitrov and Federer have to follow into SF and I'm happy. :c

Slight edge to Ana. 8)


Advantage with photo is that you don't hear her accent :mrgreen: :mrgreen: ...


Haha, that was just my thought when I heard her talk after the match :lol:


Unfortunately I missed Wawrinka - Djokovic, is it worth watching back?

Nadal double faulting on break point? Maybe he cannot believe that Djokovic lost.

Another double fault on break point? Dimitrov still in the third set after such a long and tough second set.

THE NERVES. Easy forehand wide and couldn't close it out on serve. Shame.

Reminds me of Nadal's QF at AO 2012 against Berdych, but I still have faith in the winner of Federer vs. Murray to take Nadal out.

Awesome Rafa, sorry to insist but with that huge blister on his racquet he should be out of the tournament and not in SF, not because the pain, apparently he has no pain but because the lack of feel with all the tape he has on it, and maybe a little pain. Players like Verdasco, Gulbis etc would have retired of tennis with that blister :lol: :lol: :lol:

Federer is playing a great tennis, day off for me so i could watch Fed vs Murray and yep he was fast, agile, and hitting the ball perfectly well, tough opponent for Rafa
Never underestimate the pain of a person, because in all honesty, everyone is struggling. Some people are just better at hiding it than others.

That is true, the double faults, I think, were due to that blister. Nadal gifted breaks in the 2nd and 3rd set, made some errors I don't see him doing with such frequency (especially concerning the situations, like missing two inside out forehands in a row when up 5-4 in tie break on serve).

My pick after QFs: Federer to reach the final, where Stan the fan will appear! :mrgreen:
