God damn, is there anything more painful than listening to Newcombe and Rednut Woody barracking, err, I mean 'commentating' a Hewitt match? I think not. Just horrible.

Newcombe at 3-4 in the 4th - "Come on LLeyton, one more point... just hang in there"

What barracking? :p
 
Now, now fellas. I'm not Hewitt's biggest fan either, but let's take those anti-Hewitt shades off and remember that biased commentary towards Australian players has been a sporting tradition since the beginning of time :p

In all seriousness, of course they're going to barrack for him.
 
Hewitt just plays the safe game way too often and his serving at crucial times is diabolical.

How the **** can a player who wants to be in the worlds top 10 choke so often with such easy shots.
 
Hewitt's serving has actually improved massively, and has been one of the reasons for his return to form.
You obviously didn't see the 4th set then. 2 breaks and loses the breaks straight after. Where are his one or 2 aces which makes serving games much easier to win.

To take the 4th seed to three tiebreaks in the 4th Round at Wimbledon isn't a bad effort, to be honest.
Djokovic is nothing special. Hewitt just misses far too many easy shots. Missing shots whilst going for shots you can understand but when shots are missed just hitting it back it's unacceptable for profesionals and the players who do it wont do very well.

I didn't see the 4th set live, so no, I didn't see that. But what I was commenting on was his improved serve. His serve has improved a lot, and is the main reason he has made it through this far.
 
Now I'm in Perth and the footy show is still on. I can just imagine Newk now wanking on about Hewitt not giving up.

I put it on mute when Djokovic saved a break point at 2-1 in the fourth to make it 2-2, and Woody and Newk are going "oh if he lost that game you could just see that Hewitt was going to run over him through the set". Just. Shut. Up.

This far? His seed 16 and knocked out with 16 players left....hardly anything special.
