As soon as Serena lost the first set she was done for....

You could see just how tired she was emotionally from that first set. Even physically she looked sluggish at the beginning of the 2nd Set. Her mom's face spoke volumes as well to me too.

Serena could have easily won that set if not for a few idiotic mistakes on her part. She gave a great performance though in that first set....the stuff of legends.

I'm guessing Nadal is going to advance so I'm off to bed.

Wow Andy Roddick played almost perfectly last night against Federer....

In retrospect this match kinda mirrored the Serena Williams/Justine Henin match the night before.

Anyways Roddick has nothing to be ashamed about. He played Federer hard for a long time and just got some unlucky breaks. However that new coach of his is AWESOME. A year ago that match wouldn't have even been close.

I firmly believe that Roddick can definitely beat Federer now anytime anyplace.

I missed the match but yay, Justine!! She totally deserves after between both Williams sisters back-to-back. Oh and I just her backhand......it's so good.

Tomorrow's men's finals should be very good. Djokovic beat Federer just a few weeks ago, but it's not going to happen again.

The umpire that was at the end of Serena's outburst will be officating at the Australian open, will they cross paths?

She did umpire at the Medibank tournament in Sydney but weren't on the same court at the same time.

But I do have to say WTG Serena on her return comment to a reporter at a press conference when he asked her about how her anger management was going (or something to that effect) she asked him how his writing was going.

Who do you think will win the first Grand Slam event of the year.

On a lighter note Roger Federer organised a fund raiser for Haiti on Sunday.

Hmm I think this would have picked up anything that was said lol. (Wonder if her mother knows that she went snowboarding yet).

Somehow I don't think that "Triples" will take off.
