If Fed gets past Davydenko (and that is an if), Murray must like his chances. He has the game to topple the Swiss legend.

Well Fed will still have the small matter of Djokovic in the SF but I agree, Murray has the game to beat Fed so long as his nerves hold.

What a choke by Azarenka. Still might get out of it.

If Channel Seven does not show the full Davydenko/Federer match.....

Joker and Tsonga are in to the 5th. This seems to be the first time Tsonga has played a 5 setter!

by JGK Wed 27 Jan 2010, 13:25

Tsonga now 2 breaks up in the 5th. It's going to take an Azarenka style self destruction to lose from here.

Djokovic was clearly ill though. Lots of credit to him for completing a match he was going to lose, rather than just quitting. Well done him.

The second. His previous match was the first.

Fed Express rolls on,

In the semis now. Beat Davydenko in the QF 2-6 6-3 6-0 7-5 despite losing first test and then facing double break in the 2nd set.

The win extends Federer’s remarkable Grand Slam semi-final run to 23 consecutive appearances.

The last time he wasn’t in the SFs of a Grand Slam was at Roland Garros in 2004.

Remarkable really. Simply out of the world.

by Zat Thu 28 Jan 2010, 03:42

Would have been great to see Federer v Laver with each at their prime.

by SG Thu 28 Jan 2010, 03:54

Yep.

Even against Pete or Borg or McEnroe at their prime.

by SG Thu 28 Jan 2010, 09:20

Serena to face Henin in the final. Both defeated their chinese opponents in the SFs.

by brisk Thu 28 Jan 2010, 09:47

lol .. serena takes another.

by skully Thu 28 Jan 2010, 09:50

Welcome aboard, brisk.

Amazing how many of the men's seeds fell to "injuries" when well behind in matches.

by Jontyh Thu 28 Jan 2010, 09:51

Murray would appear to be getting stuffed. So much for all that "court time" guff..

by skully Thu 28 Jan 2010, 09:53

Meh, early days, Jonts.

But if he gets too far behind, he can just feign a pulled hammy. Cool

by Merlin Thu 28 Jan 2010, 09:56

Who's winning? :?:
Is Henman playing? :?:

Aye. I suppose the fitness thing might come into it later in the game, too..

Henman leads Sampras 2 sets to 1 and 3-2 in the 4th.

by Jontyh Thu 28 Jan 2010, 10:11

Murray breaks serve in the second - all is not lost yet!
