Thats all i hope for in matches like these. Don't really like one over the other, so lets just hope for a good match.

Re: Tennis Discussion Thread
Anyone else thinks Hewitt will retire at the Australian Open next year?

Re: Tennis Discussion Thread
He should tbh. I am not too sure if he will retire next year in the Aussie Open though.

Re: Tennis Discussion Thread
He's not had a bad year so he might carry on for another and end it 2014. It'd be the fitting place to do it but at completely the wrong time in the calendar, at the start of the season. I doubt he'd spend the time off getting ready just for that tournament.

Re: Tennis Discussion Thread
I expected Hewitt to retire earlier than Roddick.
@Nige, You are right that retiring there is in the wrong time because it is at the start of the season but I am pretty sure that is the tournament where Hewitt would want to retire. He didn't had a bad year but I think it would be better for him if he retires next year.

Re: Tennis Discussion Thread
I think next year or 2014 will be a good time for him to retire.

True that, for sure if Australia Open was the last slam he'll do it.
I would have been less surprised if Hewitt retired than Roddick. |

Re: Tennis Discussion Thread
Roberta Vinci and Aga Randwanska through in straight sets. They will meet in round 4. Thats going to be a very interesting match, because Vinci is in some great form.

Re: Tennis Discussion Thread
Wasn't expecting Lopez/Murray to be this close in sets but Murray is just so good when it comes to tight situations, he's in no danger of losing this match even though it's so close.

Re: Tennis Discussion Thread
Federer comfortably through in straight sets. Him and Djokovic look comfortable so far. Murray however is getting pushed here by Lopez.
Edit* Murray scrapes through 7-6,7-6,4-6,7-6. Unlucky Lopez, good effort.
I thought Lopez was the better player today for the most part, and should have won really. It was the big points that let Lopez down. He wasn't strong enough, but Murray was. Props to Murray for hanging in there and winning in the end. Damn, it kinda remined me of Shvedova vs Vinci. Slava was slightly the better player for the most part, but lost it on the big points. It was a bit like that in the Murray-Lopez match.
Lopez won 162 points, Murray 154. Murray is limping is way through so far
Kirilenko is gone in the womens. Lost to Hlavackova in 3 sets
