55 unforced errors, service was nothing like we know it, 2 matchpoints against......personally I wouldn't call that such an excellent match. But everyone has their own definition ofcourse.

Hantuchova is a great player, but I think she isn't able YET to win such a big tournament. I would put my money on the Belgian girls.

And people, let's try not to talk too much about the Williams sisters only okay. They're good, but just because they dominate the female tennis doesn't mean they have to dominate this thread.

Aggasi is played his second round match against Hyung-Taik Lee tommorow in the Rod Laver Arena ...... it's the third match so I expect it won't be played until late afternoon Australian time, which is about 5-7AM here.

I agree... nice pair indeed. I'm sick of the Williams sisters winning everything too.

Hewitt only just got through his first round - won it in five sets. I don't really see him winning the tournament unfortunately - not in great form and Australians usually don't do too well in their own tournament - too much pressure I think.

Hey! No Williams chit-chat.

I noticed that when browsing the scores earlier ..... susprising to see him struggle so early, but if Hewitt wasn't to win the men's title then who will?

BTW - Have fun hunting those Hobbits.

Anna got crushed 6-0, 6-1. She looked so damn hot though in her tennis outfit from the highlights I saw. Agassi was on ESPN2 tonight, he crushed some Asian dude.

Could be a reason, because Henman for example can't seem to win Wimbledon.

And more sad news.....our goodplaying Schalken is out of the tournament. He lost in a big 5 setter.

And more.....Anna is out indeed. She lost with 1-6 and 0-6 from Justine Henin. Something that lots of people expected I think. So we have to wait until Anna Kournikova wins her first single Grand Slam title.......if that ever is gonna happen.

Agassi was done in no time with Lee. 6-1,6-0,6-0
Next round: Escude - Agassi

Men singles title: Hewitt, Agassi or maybe Safin ?

Hantuchova is though, but with trouble.... 2 tiebreaks!
And Venus ofcourse didn't have any trouble with her match.

Emma, why don't you like Kournikova ?? You're not jealous, are you.

Kournikova's Australian Open results:

1997: 1st round
1998: 3rd round
1999: 4th round
2000: 4th round
2001: quarter final
2002: 1st round

She didn't played bad every year. Even one year the quarter final.....I didn't know that.
