When his head is in the game, he's probably the best out there.
Great, great, great game. 5 sets, great players, I hope Safin goes all the way now.

Hewitt just saw a glimmer of hope
Roddick and Safin can overpower him but they are erratic. Hewitt thrives on pressure and emotion and there'll be loads of that in the next couple of days. Should be interesting!
You might want to change the title header. There may be some grumpy American tennis viewers after you
P.S Best grand slam for a long, long time - for both genders! |

Hmmm, if they're coming here for tennis news, that's their problem lol...
Yes, you're right about Hewitt thriving under pressure, especially against Roddick, but he's going to have to get past Roddick and his powerful serve first and he looked worn out against Nalbandian. I think Safin just did the impossible, but I would rather see him playing against Roddick, I think he has a better chance against him. I'm just glad he's in and Sharapova, or Maria Full of Grunts (good one), is out.

I'd never count out Hewitt. He's like the Energizer Bunny - he keeps on going on... and on... and on... and on... (you get the picture).
Poor Roger... I've just realised I rather fancy him Maybe it's that European impassiveness. OTOH Marat is just an oaf. |

Partners and managerial duties don't mix - if/when you split relationship-wise, oh dear...
Good tactic by the girlfriend though The claws are hooked in!
I did notice the bling bling. How can you play with all that shit dangling around your neck? I guess it worked for him tonight! Maybe the gleam distracted Roger on key points. |
