Australian Open Day 1

[LukeParkerno1]

Tie break 1st set in Edmund v Anderson

Will be a tight match. Think I'll just turn it on at 5-5 in each set.

 

[Wolfs]

Cornetto wins

Zhang v Stephens has become a tight contest.

Zhang v Stephens has become a tight contest.

The way Sloane has played since the US Open, I'm hardly surprised.

I actually tipped Zhang!

Going to a third set

If Zhang controls her unforced errors, she'll win.

Goerges wins 4 & 4 over Kenin. If Goerges can serve like that she could go deep.

Some changes at the tournament this year:
Countdown clock during the warm-up
Umpires chair goes up and down rather than the ladder
Players chair shade is electronically lifted in place by remote
Wi-Fi needs re sign in during a period of inactivity

People still take a week to sit down behind the court and of course don't put their phones on silent!

Guess that and the entertainment, are why we are paying so much even for ground passes this year

 

[Wolfs]

Oh Dear Stephens

Kubler takes the 2nd set.

Sloane continues her gosh awful form, her form has been woeful! Still can't believe how she fluked a GS!

And silly me forgot they charge more once the tournament had started and only bought my ticket this morning

So they charge more? Fair dinkum don't they extort us enough? As it is ground passes are becoming less viable.

Might get into kubler match after this one if it's still on

 

[LukeParkerno1]

How was Zhang almost $3 to win?

 

[Wolfs]

First seed out?

Bye Sloane

 

[Dhoni Dakurri]

Great retrieving by Edmund

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Come on Bencic please save tennis

 

[LukeParkerno1]

First seed out?

Bye Sloane

Cibulkova will be following her unless she turns it around quick!

And, she hasnt won a game since the US Open.

And, she hasnt won a game since the US Open.

How she managed to win a GS is the biggest fluke ever. It makes Stosur's GS seem actually decent!

I dont mind Stephens but still dont know how she managed to win that GS while Halep and Woz are still fighting to win their first GS. Unpredictable game.

 

[JackNah_8]

that umpire's chair is impressive
