Really hope Draper can get the Aussies off to a good start - he is down a brake in the 3rd...

Federer is and will wake this match easily although I thought Santoro put up a better fight 2nd set.

 

[Russian]

Upsets
Mary Pierce gone in straight sets
Ai Sugiyama gone in straight sets
Mirnyi beaten in 5 by Calleri after a strong performance last week
Flavia Penetta beaten in 3 by Petra Mandula, not that surprising though

Aussies
Draper, Luczak and Watson all out
Sophie Ferguson is the only successful one so far

 

[Rough_Edges]

Very Very easy match for Safin...did Stossur win?

 

[Benno_900]

Stosur lost 2-6, 3-6 to Mauresmo

 

[Rough_Edges]

Bit of a shame isn't it...she's got a lot of talent.
