Australian Open 2015 - Day 6

[JackNah_8]

My favourite match so far this tournament, that was incredible tennis from start to finish.

I wish Id watched the match from the start instead of watching verdasco v novak.

Simon was so impressive, he just kept fighting even though he was struggling

 

[JackNah_8]

Keys is so powerful

Come one Petra! (don't want to do my dough )

I think we're ****ed tbh, totally outhitting her

Only hope is she chokes it up, but still slightly disappointed in Kvitova.

why have there been no top grade night matches on last night and tonight?

Finally have a couple of days where i can stay up late and watch some tennis and its all over by 7pm

 

[JackNah_8]

Simon has certainly made his way into my favorite players list after that, Ferrer was already there

Ferrer is so fit! He works so hard for every point, but he struggles against the top players.

Nishikori v Ferrer, interesting match up. Nishikori should win?

I think we're stuffed tbh, totally outhitting her

Only hope is she chokes it up, but still slightly disappointed in Kvitova.

I had Keys to end a 6 leg multi, but Cornet ruined mine...

 

[WALDENPOND]

Teeth. So. White.

I like watching the Aussies so I am annoyed that one night we have none then the next night we have multiple Aussie matches! I've also been out most nights when they are playing so have missed part of most of the matches. Ah well, can't be helped, the luck of the draw!

 

[JackNah_8]

Keys won..wow upset there

 

[rideclutch]

I consider myself a moron of the highest order, but I reckon with 5 mins prep I could do a half-decent on-court interview. These guys are ******* hopeless.

Good pick, unlucky.

What odds Keys this match and any idea what idea she was to win the final prior to this match??

 

[Sir Vlado]

Keys arguably hits the ball harder than anyone else on the tour, and when it goes in, it's brilliant to watch.

It cant be that hard, surely they have a list of questions prepared for each match

It's amazing how hard she hits the ball! And, she has a good coach - Lindsay Davenport.

Absolutely; beyond embarrassing.

On court interview should be "congratulations"
"How are you feeling", "what's your thoughts on your next match", "well done and good luck in 2 days time", nothing more, nothing less. Don't see the need to get into personal details and s**t like that, eg. " How was your engagement?" Keep it short, topical and easy.

She was $4, not sure on championship odds

 

[Hudu Gurusingha]

Keys is so powerful

Anyone see the stat the other day about the average speed of her groundstrokes? Bigger than most men, including the Djoker

Not enough controversy for my liking every player needs to be asked to twirl, twerk, break dance, cook 2 minute noodles.

Yes! I was reading this article today. It's insane, she hits the ball this hard. Surely Keys will end up in the top 10 soon

Mouth-watering clash. Both have sublime retrieving skills. Id say Nishikori - he will over power Ferrer the way he his the ball on the rise

Davenport's game was pretty similar to Keys' as far as I recall. I think they make a good match.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Well now I'm hoping Bouchard wins or Halep...jeez Petra, typical

 

[rideclutch]

Also surprised to see my old fave journeyman Gilles Muller still alive. Good for him!

I think Davenport is the perfect coach for her, both very similar.
