January 27, 200917 yr Roddick is wiping the floor with this guy... what's his name again? Oh yeah, Djokovic. :D Apparently Serbs can't take very hot weather. wait, Nole lost?
January 27, 200917 yr did Djokovic get injured? I don't have a T.V., but it says "retired" on the aussie open website while it's still 2 sets to 1 roddick.
January 27, 200917 yr He dropped out due to the heat. Roddick was still going strong till the end, and he says his conditioning helped him. I don't know why the idiots in Australia didn't close the roof on the stadium. Roddick made several really impressive plays in this match, so it should be cool to see how he does against Federer (assuming he wins against that young dude Del Toro or whatever his name is). I think this new coach really helped Roddick's game. The next match he's in will be at nighttime, so heat won't be an issue.
January 27, 200917 yr Hehe you were close, it's Del Potro. Yeah, I like Novak, but he is a little bit weak, and always complaining about anything, injuries, heat, health. Or he was afraid that he could face Roger in the semis if the Fed wins.
January 27, 200917 yr Yeah, it Djokovic has been suffering from a lot lately, I found this little paragraph in an article after the match. Later on in the year, at the US Open, ‘A-Rod’ was embroiled in an exchange of words with Djokovic after the Serb took one of his jokes the wrong way. The American jested that Djokovic’s injuries seemed endless. “A back and a hip? And a cramp? Bird flu ... anthrax ... SARS ... common cough and cold?” he said, smiling. Novak didn’t realise Roddick was joking, took umbrage and after his four-set quarterfinal defeat of the American used his on-court, post-match interview to let his feelings be known. The world No.3 was then booed as the home crowd defended their hero. Still, congratulations to Roddick! I remember switching to Jimmy Connors as is coach a couple years ago had an absolutely remarkable impact on his game. Now I think he's just being coached by his brother. Considering all those wimbledon's he lost to federer, and the fact that he has pretty much stayed in the top ten since 2001 when he won his only major, I would be thrilled if he could finally win another.
January 27, 200917 yr ... Hehe, double post edited. Well, let's see what happens in the semis with Fed. I really hope he reaches the finals and if Nadal is there, I want Fed to show that guy who's the king ._.
January 27, 200917 yr Hmm, turns out Roddick lost to the Fed at the Aussie semifinal in 2007. I rooted for Andy every major final he was in, but Federer always had the grace advantage, the way he sweeps across the court like a ballerina while Roddick's shoes make earsplitting squeaks with every sharp change of direction. Roddick has about a 2-15 record vs. Federer, and I don't think he's ever beat him in a major before, so I'm hoping for a miraculous upset.
January 27, 200917 yr Seeing Roddick beat Federer would be so satisfying. And I'd like him to do it using brute force, with lots of aces. Take that, you ballerina! ;)
