Things I Noticed: Day 2


  • Petra started off a bit shakey losing the first two games of her match. She then went on to win the next 12 games.
  • It occurred to me that Novak's kits since he switched to Sergio Tacchini he very rarely is not in Serbian colors. To Davis Cup-ish for me. He won in straight sets. 
  • I cannot stand the tweener. The need to stop.
  • Stosur got knocked out in the first round by Cristea in straight sets. Ending Sam's Australian summer of tennis with only a single victory. I am thinking she will enjoy returning to the Northern Hemisphere. 
  • The ESPN montages are just about my favorite part of their coverage of the Slams. 
  • Ryan Harrison but up a good showing taking the first set from Andy Murray before eventually losing in four sets. Hope Ryan uses it as a spring board for a good season. 
  • Andy Roddick won in straight sets. Brooklyn's dress was lovely. 
  • Ana Ivanovic played a soild match for to advance to the second round. 
  • Lleyton Hewitt had a dramatic fourth set to come back from 1-5 to win the match. He fell to the court on his back when he won it was and endearing reaction. He has a throw match with Roddick in the second round. 
  • Maria Sharapova sailed through the first round 6-0 6-1 against Dulko the single game she lost was a game where she hit 3 double faults in a row.
  • Serena won. She beat Pazek and the bugs late into the night on Rod Laver. 
  • Nicholas Mahut won his first round match.
