    Baggy is playing tomorrow, hope I can catch it at some stage. I understand Andy is playing on Tuesday so I guess are the other top seeded men.


    ...pondering...if your name was Mardy Fish would you not change it??? :emoticon-0112-wonde

    Not a good start for the Brits. Heather Watson got spanked 6-1, 6-0 by 3rd seed Victoria Azarenka and James Ward got thumped 6-4, 6-3, 6-4 by Slovenia's Blaz Kavcic.

    Just woken up on the first day of the Australian Open... and England's grand slam is over.

    Now Laura Robson's out, beaten by 6-2, 6-0 by Jankovic. Not a good start by the British players.

    They're British but in a way you're right considering it's only a Scotsman that remains

    Only if you're being particularly pedantic. Baltacha is actually Scottish. Kind of.

    Aye I do consider her Scottish but she lost so I'm disowning her for the purpose of that post

    Very poor day but I can't say it's totally unexpected though it would've been nice to have seen LR get a bit further :(

    Apologies for my assumption of Fed & Nadal playing tomorrow (Tuesday) I believe they are playing today, in fact if Eurosport is live and I'm assuming it is then Federer is playing right now. <ok>

    I don't think the tennis on Eurosport at the moment will be live, it must be late in Australia by now? By late I mean like 2am-3am

    Yes I did, lala. I'm off till the 30th.

    I'll probably only stay up/get up to watch Andy's matches.

    Andy v Ryan Harrison is down on bet365 to start at 3.00am. I'll set my alarm for then, and hope for the best.

    I'll come on here if I do manage to get up....so I might see some of you later.

    Good luck Andy!

    You won't be seeing me, I have to get up for work at 5.15, maybe I can put the tv on instead of the radio just to get the latest on AM's match.

    Go Andy!!! <ok>

    On a serious note, are we to be overly worried about Andy playing Roger?
