Hey guys, Been following tennis all my life and been playing since i was 7 but stopped this last year so ive been out of it and havent watched it lately, usually id be able to pick whod win, but this year alot of top promising players.
Thought id get a bit of a discussion going on

Rafa,Djockovic and Federer my guess out of these 3 ( obviously ). Fed and nadal on the same side of the draw for like the first time since 2005 so a big game there. But who do use reckon will win overall any of those 3 or will Murray,tsonga or another player come out of the works and step up?

And how do we reckon the aussies will do Lleyton playing Roddick tonight i think? And Tomic vs Dolgopolov which i reckon will be an amazing game.

So talk away.

Lleyton will lose, just can't see him winning.

Tomic and Dolgopolov is going to be one hell of a match, but Dolgopolov because of experience and less time on the court.

Djockovic, to take it all out due to his relatively easier run, and just that he is in good form.

Edit: I want Rafa to win but i don't think he will.

Dolgopolov had like a 3:30+ hour, 5 setter against Kamke yesterday didn't he? Maybe from Experience but Tomic is a fighter and might be to consistent for Dolgopolov i reckon, but he is a pretty good player from what ive seen so far of Dolgopolov.

And Llyeton is screwed either in 3 or his manage to grab a set somewhere against Roddick.

And yeah Djockovic will most likely win i reckon but hard to tell who he would be playing out of Rafa and Fed.

I think Hewitt doesn't have a chance at beating roddick, he should have just retired on a high cause now people will just remember him as losing all the time.

But Tomic i think has a very good chance t winning this. i know its doubtful but i can see him winning the Ausopen

Yeah thats true, but ya cant just stop playing when ya good. If you saw aswell Haas made a return just to lose against Nadal ( good game though )

And Tomic wont win, he wins this game he has Fed next and i cant say anything happening there.

He needs time to develop as from what i have seen he is a very smart player, like how after his first round match, he talked about playing mental games with Verdasco.

He also really needs to work on that serve, he has the body to own a huge serve.

I can see only good things coming from him.

Yeah man definatly his really only just started coming in like just last year and really kicked off later in the year? i think.

but yeah he has potential to have a great serve and needs to make that a wepon, but he reminds me alot of Federer doesnt have those devastating shots like Nadal just grinds the ball but when needs to get crank it.

Good things to come. Makes me want to start playing so much talking about tennis so gay i should start woo

Playing Wii sports isnt playing Tennis. But attending the AusOpen for a perv on the hotties that attend is a good enough reason to buy a general admiss ticket !

Yea well believe me or don't but I've been at Hopman cup hitting with the players! Hewitts toe is fked he is absolute pain but trying to hide it. Berdych will be the dark knight in the comp after losing to tonic at Kooyong but he is still striking the ball extremely well. Djokovic or federer are obv the 2 favorites in the men's and In the women's the 2 seed from check won't even come close to losing....

Was there yesterday and watched Isner's massive showdown with Nalbandian, was a 5 set match with the final set ending at 10-8. Pretty sure it was the first time I've enjoyed men's tennis

I think Azarenka may take out the womens she looks like shes on a mission

Tomic I think will beat Dolgopolov but will loose to Federer

Also I think Djokovic will be 2g on the mens side Federer will be his only challenge with Nadal having injury worries
