So I haven’t been able to tune in to anything but tennis since last week. Not that I’m complaining. This will probably last until the end of this week. The Australian Open this year must be the most exciting Slam in a long while. Even if I am an ardent fan of Roger Federer (and the comeback girl Justine Henin), I can see how wide open the field is with regard to contenders for the title. Everyone’s just upped their level; it’s like they’re all running on new Mopar performance parts.Maybe it’s just because it’s the start of the year and everyone’s fresh. Still, it’s been a week, and counting, of terrific tennis.
As of post time, upcoming singles matches to salivate over:
Men’s singles semifinals:
Cilic vs (either Murray or Nadal)
Quarters:
Federer vs Davydenko
Djokovic vs Tsonga
Women’s singles semifinals:
Henin vs Zheng
