The same man who beat him in the semi finals of the World Tour Masters last season and just took the first set out with two breaks.

This match is far from over, but save the hyperbole.

I am at Work-keep me posted....still reckon the Fed express will do it!

    He does that! Puts that quick after burn Blast just when he needs it

    One set all...cool

    Davydenko is a good player so we could be in for a 5 setter....

    The Fed express may have put his foot down (if only we could watch it, thank you Channel 7). 2-0 in the third set.

    Yep.

    Hopefully when this rubbish programme finishes the tennis will return to a bit of a contest. Davydenko clearly doesn't like TodayTonight either - he's lost 10 straight games to go from 3-2 up to 2-6 6-3 6-0 down.

    ARGH just found out that Home and Away is on next. Davydenko is doomed

    Contempt is certainly the word to use when considering the way channel 7 treat their sports coverage. Not even 7two has it on.

    Meanwhile Davydenko has won his first game for 13 games and trails 2-1 in the 4th.

    C'mon Justine ! 3-4 down and back on serve after breaking back.

    I cannot get over the size of serena's shoulders, if Justine is to win she will have to outlast a tank.

  • Quote
    Could have gone either way. Justine looked the winner at the end of the second set winning her set 6-3. Both girls took a break before the third set. It halted proceedings and Henin's purple patch where Serena was able to get her game going again by breaking justine. In the end a good final, congratulations to both and to Serena for defending her title, as well as equalling Billie Jean King.

    Roger Federer what a magnificent champion he is

    Murray pushed him at times...but Roger is all class on & off the court.

    Just watched last week's Four Corners on the turmoil in Tennis Australia, and the insiders view on the push by Paul MacNamee to take the reins. Clearly MacNamee is a pretty divisive figure, but the TA operation seems to be so disfunctional that maybe it is time for a new broom. The question is, is PN the right man for the job.

    Hre lasted a matter of months as CEO of MFC. Does anyone have insight about this short tenure, apart from his wanting to recruit Jonathan Brown. I understand there was a push back about his being a "non-football" person, but wasw there any more than this, and does it say anything about his suitability or otherwise for the TA job?

    Stosur beat Henin at the French Open!

    Now for Serena...

    Yes, magnificent effort. Big stepping stone in her tennis career. Can take a heap of confidence into the Serena match. Go Sammy !

  • Quote

    And Federer's lost in the Quarter-finals, which is the first time he hasn't made it to the semi-finals or beyond since 2004. 23 consecutive grand slams he'd made it to the semis. But Soderling got him in 4 sets.

  • Quote

    Awesome performance by Samantha Stosur defeating Serena Williams in three sets. 8-6 in the third and final set. Will gain great confidence. The first time she has beaten a World No.1.

    Now for Jelena Jankovic in the SEMI-FINAL.

    Many junior tennis kids could look at Stosur for inspiration. Her hard work & determination has got her into this position. At 26, she has a few good years ahead of her in tennis. Just the kick Australian Women's Tennis has been craving.

    I didn't think she'd be able to beat Serena. Now I have confidence. I mean, Jankovic should be relatively easy compared to Serena and Henin. Wow. Who knows, maybe she might go all the way...

    You're right titan, I was of the same opinion. Playing darts with a group of mates last night - no-one gave her a chance of beating Jankovic. Couldn't believe it. Most thought she had just played her "Grand Final" beating Serena. As she one, she didn't carry on - that's a sign of the 'work is not done yet.'

    Played magnificent tennis did Stosur, defeating Jankovic in straight sets in a most dominant display. I think she will win the title (oops - I hope I haven't mozzed her).

    Samantha Stosur. Well done ! But one more ! Then Wimbledon !

    I'm pumped she is playing so well, her off forehand is amazing and a kick serve to die for.

    It's Time For Australia To Get Behind Sam Stosur

    Absolutely. Her kick serve is nearly the best in the game. It has troubled all her opponents and is most effective on the clay surface. It will suit her at Wimbledon too.

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
