Huge win by Tomic.

by **Chris Chan** Mon Jan 16, 2012 6:20 pm

damn, I fell asleep afer Verdasco went 2-0 up. At least the match didn't disappoint!

by Vanig Bostanian Tue Jan 17, 2012 3:36 am

How old is Tomic? I really like that guy and hope he makes it big.

by **Chris Chan** Tue Jan 17, 2012 5:23 am

only 19, got a bright future

Any good matches on tonight? Reckon Murray v Harrison could be tighter than people think

by Sami Rockfeller Tue Jan 17, 2012 3:27 pm

Murray lost the first set. Harrison is taking the game to Murray. An upset could be on the cards here.

by Samritpal Singh Tue Jan 17, 2012 10:53 pm

Stebe is fucking it up now. 2-1 losing and he was leading 4-1 in the fourth set and now it's 5-4.

by Vanig Bostanian Wed Jan 18, 2012 1:44 am

Fuck Djokovic, he didn't win 6-0 6-0 6-0 to make me happy. He lost 2 games in the first set.

Who else is playing later? What's the schedule like?

by Samritpal Singh Wed Jan 18, 2012 8:25 pm

Querrey vs Tomic is on now. Querrey won first set 6-3, Tomic won 2nd set 6-3 and now both are 2-2 in the 3rd set. Tomic looking strong now.

by Samritpal Singh Wed Jan 18, 2012 9:39 pm

Tomic won 3-1, coming back from 1-0 down. So good.

Wawrinka vs Baghdatis is up now, 2nd set. Wawrinka leads 1-0.

by **Mario** Wed Jan 18, 2012 9:51 pm

Baghdatis was playing amazing tennis and dominated a very entertaining set up until 5-4. Then he went to serve for the set... and choked. Has since mentally disappeared and the match is there for the taking for Wawrinka.

Also, I caught the last set of Isner-Nalbandian. What a set of tennis, Isner was cramping but somehow won 10-8 in the 5th. Incredible last set.

Tomic reminds me of a young Andy Murray. Lots of variation, just needs to keep developing and channel it properly as he gets older. Another very good player out of the Balkans.

by Samritpal Singh Thu Jan 19, 2012 2:26 am

Del Potro looks like a solid player.

by Samritpal Singh Thu Jan 19, 2012 4:04 am

A very pissed Baghdatis.

by **Chris Chan** Thu Jan 19, 2012 10:25 am

wake up to murray playing and then trying to keep tabs on hewitt roddick at work, should be a corker!

by Samritpal Singh Fri Jan 20, 2012 12:42 am

What was the Hewitt vs Roddick match results? roddick out I presume?

by David Hung Fri Jan 20, 2012 1:10 am

Roddick retired after losing the third set

by Samritpal Singh Fri Jan 20, 2012 3:40 pm

Ahh. Federer looks like he's going to win this match vs Karlovic.

by Samritpal Singh Fri Jan 20, 2012 7:53 pm

Dalgopolov vs Tomic match is very good.

Dalgo leading the first set 6-4.

Not sure what you mean by that. He's lived in Australia since he was 3!

by **Mario** Fri Jan 20, 2012 8:11 pm

haha, it was just a little dig at that rogue, Hogan.

by **David Hogan** Sat Jan 21, 2012 2:07 am

The dig was spotted and noted.

The Tomic kid can really play. Federer will be too good for him, but the signs are all there that he can do great things.
