I think Federer will win again and I also think that a upset will take place where we will see another unkown like Bagdahtis was or we will see Roddick in the finale as he has been playing great tennis of late for the past 6 months.

On the womens side I would love to see Hingis win but she can only do so if Ameile or Kim are out...

Hewitts on right now and Bec is in the crowd w000000t

Nadal ALMOST losing to an American... wow...

that would have been a slap in the face to lose first round...

I'm rooting for Hewitt aswell here, even though I know he probably won't win anything.

i think the ballpeople have funny hats

I wouldn't exactly call 7-6,6-3,6-2 "almost losing"
Interesting that it was the same opponent who took him to 5 sets at Wimbledon

Would there be something so bad about Nadal losing to an American per se?
On clay, him losing to anyone would be something, but it's different on hard courts.

He loses that first set, like he ALMOST did... went deep into tie break... he loses that first match, we got a different outcome...! Of course he didn't... but it was a scare for Nadal...

I'm all for Americans, but Nadal in reality is the #2 behind Federer... so... ummm... the #2 guy losing would be big, and losing to a potentially "no-name" American... that would be huge...

and I'm a Nadal supporter here... ahem...

Nadal beat Federer on hardcourt, if I remember it correctly. And anyone besides Roddick he should be able to beat I think actually.

sharapova should be on cruise control for a while after outlasting pin. I also didn't realize how tall sharapova is until i saw her shake hands with pin.
