Hewitt not far away

FWIW I cant see Nieminin posing a massive threat to Nadal, he is super fresh and in to good form.

Ferrero has taken the second set against Ferrer after being a break down. Score is now 7-5, 3-6, 2-1 in Ferrer's fgavour after they exchanged breaks early in the 3rd.

Ferrer has lost his last 2 service games and 3 of the last 5. Could be under pressure.

Hopefully Ferrero wins and my $10 on him at $2.45 pays off

Djokovic is absolutly ripping Hewitt.

Djokovic is absolutly ripping Hewitt.

Hewitt saves 3 break points and holds.

Djokovic loks a class above at the moment but dont give up on Lleyton yet.

Has a Federer Hewitt look on it from Davis Cup where he came from a mile behind to win.

Hope this happens tonite

Djokovic has just pulled out of the station, ther powerful locomotive on a collision course heading for the Fed Express.

 

[EssendonBombersFC]

Djokovic is getting lucky.

 

[caboose]

At least it's a far better standard match than the Hewitt-Baghdatis garbage we had to endure the other night.

 

[lazy]

Little Hewitt is about to be rolled.

 

[ShearMagic9]

Poor thing

 

[likka]

Novak at a canter ATM, and he's not playing anywhere near his best.

Don't fancy being Roche this year, the Hewitt clan will be expecting him to perform miracles... little Lleyton's game really is limited.

could get ugly

 

[Shane_Mag]

I think Hewitt will win this set, but near impossible to win the next 3 sets. Serving like a busted ass hole

Who cares if Lleyton is Australian, if someone thinks he is an arseh*le or dislikes him then that doesn't mean they should support him simply because he's Australian. Id rather support a Spaniard that I find a great role model and awesome player than an Aussie I find a giant tool

 

[pjcrows]

Anti-Hewitt, "YAY HE IS GAWN!", "I don't have to like him because he is Australian" type comments are soooo 2004.
