They really should have booted the women to elsewhere.

Where? Vodafone was being used.

geez

in WA the federer match just finished, but there still showing the womans

why not show the hewit match live

No way will the men's match go ahead. The start curfew is 11pm.

They could be playing until 4am. It won't be played.

TA have ****ed up. Women's match just HAD to be relocated.

People will be rightfully pissed off. This will be front page news.

Hence they have made the right decision by starting the match. They have avoided a PR disaster - well done TA.

Where? Vodafone was being used.

They could play it after that.

2 matches late on 2 different courts >>>> 1 match VERY late on the same court

 

[red+black]

I mean honestly, if those there tonight were asked which match they would want to watch if only 1 match could be schedule, how many would vote for the women's match? Easily less than 5%, and that's being generous.

Hewitt fails to serve out the set. Back on serve.

 

[Cousin Jed]

Typical Hewitt.

I imagine he will be knocked when I wake up in the morning

 

[thewhippersnapper]

1 set all.

 

[EssendonBombersFC]

Lleyton takes the second set!

[EssendonBombersFC]

Macros is suffering an injury. Hope it's nothing bad.

looks to be moving fine at the moment

hewitt just hanging in there

 

[ShearMagic9]

Very happy this went ahead. Gives me something to watch.

Hewitt won't be happy if he wins then plays Novak at 11pm on Monday.

The most entertaining part of Hewitt losing is the excuses he comes up with.

 

[ManWithNoName]

Have the words "I was outplayed" or "He was the better guy on the day" or "I wasn't good enough today" ever left his mouth?

I can't comment on those, but the word **** is coming out a lot tonight.

 

[EssendonBombersFC]

And Hewitt Takes The 3rd Set!

 

[__aria__]

[EssendonBombersFC]

3-0 in the last set and he's on fire now, 4 cmons in a row, its all in the bag.

[legitimatic]

[EssendonBombersFC]

Hewitt serving for the game at 5-1!

All over now.

 

[Tapee]

Here's to an epic choke (hopefully) .

 

[ManWithNoName]

Come on Marcos. You can do it!

Williams also said tournament officials had offered her and Mirza the option of having their match moved to Vodafone Arena so they could play it earlier, or of having it postponed until Sunday, but they decided against it because they wanted to play on the feature court.

Stupid inconsiderate bitches.

 

[Tapee]

**** yes Baghdatis!!
