Yes there will be a lot of pressure on Sam to win the Aust Open, as there will be with other Aussie players. But mainly Sam as she is now a Grand Slam winner. The same pressure was on both Rafter & Hewitt as well.

All this grunting has gotten me to the point where I watch the tennis with the sound down or muted all together.

Well it looks like Serena will be fined again. Does she ever learn? She was already on probation. ESPN2 is having a one hour special right now on Stosur's win and a look at the men's final. She was just interviewed and said she still cant believe she won.

The ESPN crew is down on Serena.....lol. They said she went too far with the umpire.

Given her injury problems, despite being one of the best in the game or not, Serena should be humble to the fact that she even made it to the final!!

Glad to see Novak win. It was a great final!

On a side note...Serena got fined a measly 3,000 dollars..what a joke

Did anyone hear Roger's comments to Novak's win over him and his forehand winner to avoid losing the match??

Was it a good thing or bad that I was sick and had to stay home from work. Was able to watch parts of the mens final but was not able to really focus. But that point late in the 3rd set has to be one of the best, if not the best point that I have ever seen.

I only saw the highlights of the men's final and it looks like I missed a fantastic match. :( The rallies and winners look really good. Novak just finished one of the best seasons in men's history. If he wins the Aussie Open, it'll be a "Novak-Slam" or "Djokovic-Slam".

Well, a return like that is lucky because it doesn't happen too often. You just swing your racket and hope for the best.

Get an American in the finals and ratings go through the roof.

    • Sami's Three Stooges stole the show today

      I enjoyed their individual scenes with other characters before they all came together at the Pub to commiserate over their relationships with Sami. I thought that was broken down pretty well. I just wish it had gone on a little longer. And I actually found it kinda funny too lol it seemed more mature than what we're used to. That's the kind of humor that should be on a soap. But I'm not really sure about all this talk of Dante Vitali and Sami's engagement though, especially since it doesn't look like Ali Sweeney is coming back anytime soon. What's the point of it all if we're (probably) not going to see it? It also looked like today was the first round of Brady vs. Xander as well lol I enjoyed their fight, and I'm interested in seeing this storyline play out. Even though I'm sure that Sarah will ultimately go back to Xander in the end, I'd like to see what happens along the way, and how they and everyone around them are affected by this. Btw, Theo and Jada? Idk. I still think he had the most chemistry with Arianna. And he was a bit of a dick too. It also seemed a little out of character for Jada for her to be so OK with him being such a dick  And though Alex and Stephanie were very boring again and need much better conflict than this book stuff, I am interested in the mystery of who's targeting Alex.  And yeah, I know this is a nitpick, but why is the Square still open after the gala? Isn't it supposed to be really late at night? 
    • In fairness, Hillary and Bob Woods were thick as thieves again at least by the end of OLTL. But both she and I believe Mark Derwin not so subtly dissed Kale Browne in the oral history, lol.

    • Frat Boy Jr.'s reaction to seeing Luna was just awful acting. It was so bad that I started laughing.

      Does anyone have screenshots of it?
    • Geez, I hadn't heard that Doctors story. HBS really did go through it. 
    • No offense to the actors involved, but dear God in heaven: I don't know HOW viewers managed to get through that storyline with Maggie, Frank, Cal and baby Jill without running into oncoming traffic.  Then, to make matters worse, they dragged poor Diana into the mess!  I don't care WHO gets that damn baby!  Just wrap it up and move ON already!
    • Poor HBS.  To have to put up with Stephen Burleigh, who stuck his knee between her legs while rehearsing a love scene on THE DOCTORS, then told the director that's what he did with his wife; Kincaid, who had more hair on his chest and upper lip than Koko the Gorilla; Kale Browne, who taped his lines all over the OLTL studio floor, because he couldn't ever be bothered to [!@#$%^&*] memorize them; and Robert S. Woods, who apparently thought it was still 1979 and that he was still smolderingly sexy, so why should Bo Buchanan be stuck being in a happy marriage with Nora?  After all that, no wonder she jumped at the chance to play a lesbian on VENICE, lol.
    • @Maxim Thank you for the mini-review and clip from several pages ago. I appreciate you using the Bo/Alex clip as them meeting again by this point was a real surprise to me. The scene has some layers, getting a glimpse of Alex genuinely wanting the best for Bo rather than gloating. I was disappointed it ended with Tina dragging her out of the room for some much less interesting sparring (I did enjoy Alex pointing out just how quickly Tina got over Cord).
