My girls did dreadful at the AO. Kim and Dani went out in round 3 while Sharapova Safarova and Dokic all lost first round. Yikes.

Always good to see Roger win a Major, masterclass. Tommy Haas tried round 3 against Tsonga, but came up short of taking that match to a fifth set. Gasquet and Ferrero both went out first round. The Frenchman in 5 tight sets to Youzhny while Ferrero threw away a 2 set lead and lost rather tamely to a Croatian qualifier. At this point in his career, Hewitt's round of 16 tussle with Fed was to be expected.
