Australian Open 2010 - Day Five, Round Three
We finally got to finish the movie Cha-cha-chà today, but it also means I missed the Feli/Roddick match. :( I don't know if I should be sad or not, because well, Feli lost and I don't like watching matches where the guy I root for loses (not that I thought he'd win, but yeah).
ATP
A Roddick (7) def F Lopez 6-7 6-4 6-4 7-6
I heard Andy wasn't at all like his aggressive self which let Feli into the match. Or was Feli just playing well? I don't know really, didn't see this one like I said. But OMG, my friend was telling me how Feli's cheeks were getting red from the heat and the exertion, and his eyes that kill you dead when he stares at you, and how he was pulling up his shorts because of the heat...THIS IS WHAT I MISSED THE MOST. Rawr.
J Del Potro (4) def F Mayer 6-3 0-6 6-4 7-5
Erm, what is going on with JMDP? I read from someone that he was fiddling with his elbow strap, is it that bad an injury? Because wow...that bagel is staring at me in the face. And he's been taken to more than three sets in all his games here (or just this one and the one previous to this?)
R Nadal (2) def P Kohlschreiber (27) 6-4 6-2 2-6 7-5
Oh, Rafa. He's still not playing up to his usual level. Yeah, we keep saying a win's a win, but he faces Dr. Ivo next and if he gets past that serving machine, it's Muzza and if Rafa continues playing like crap and splaying balls everywhere like this? He isn't going to get past Andy. Get it together, Rafito, and stop making me having near-heart attacks. PLEASE. I BEG YOU.
A Murray (5) def F Serra 7-5 6-1 6-4
I Karlovic def I Ljubicic 6-3 3-6 6-3 7-6
I preferred Lubey winning this one. :( Dr. Ivo meets Rafa on the fourth round. I don't know if my heart can take another tight, gruelling match.
M Cilic (14) def S Wawrinka (19) 4-6 6-4 6-3 6-3
Aww, Stan. :(
J Isner (33) def G Monfils (12) 6-1 4-6 7-6 7-6
This looked like a close match. Is Jo the only top French man left in the draw?
F Gonzalez (11) def E Korolev 6-7 6-3 1-6 6-3 6-4

This was a very big 'what is this I don't even'.
N Petrova (19) def K Clijsters (15) 6-0 6-1
I was working out with the stepping...thing while watching this one and it was one big OMG all the way. Just look at the score! Kim was completely decimated, and I don't think anyone was expecting that. Especially losing like that! Nothing seemed to go right for Kim in the entire match, she only won...5 points? in the first set. Her serve, her shots, even her quick movement around the court all seemed to have taken a vacation. It was painful to see.
S Kuznetsova (3) def A Kerber 3-6 7-5 6-4
Only saw bits of this, but this was a close match. Sveta was playing like CRAP. If she lost today too, I just...
D Safina (2) def E Baltacha 6-1 6-2
At least Dina got through what looks to be fairly easily. I hope she was getting her shots and that serve! Please, Dina, please!
J Henin def A Kleybanova (27) 3-6 6-4 6-2
PLEASE WICKMAYER, GET RID OF HER ALREADY
A Bondarenko (31) def J Jankovic (8) 6-2 6-3
And yet another seeded player (and a Serb) drops out. What's happening to these girls?
Y Wickmayer def S Errani 6-1 6-7 6-3
What I said.
J Zheng def M Bartoli (11) 5-7 6-3 6-0
WOO!!! Never liked Marion. Don't like how she looks, her off court interviews, nothing.
M Kirilenko def R Vinci 7-5 7-6
Is it Sveta vs MaKiri next? Or is it Dina? Either way, I WANT YOU TO WIN THIS, SVETA/DINA.
And to end this, I present to you Rafa Nadal getting a proposal from a fan mid-match. And being completely adorbs about it. XD
