Australian Open 2008

oh my
the next one was even better
Tsonga takes 6-4 the first set and how good were those last two points. Tennis can't have been played any better. Marvellous

ok Tsonga has been blown away by Novak
Unless something extraordinary happens, Novak has won this one.

Novak leads 2 sets to 1. I just think Tsonga can only blame himself for this. He has been hitting some atrocious shots after the first set. Bad unforced errors.

Novak's cracked and Tsonga has upped his game... twist in the tale.

Didn't See her.

I just thought both the guys were brilliant today. Just at the award ceremony, Novak mentioned how most people supported Tsonga, but then laughed the matter off by saying thats ok and he loved everyone and even thanked Tsonga and told him he deserved to win too.
Plus the quality of tennis seen today, i think i have seen it match by only Federer and Nadal and coming from Tsonga, that means something..22 year old vs 20 years old. Brilliant

Sharapova was not there Only Novak's family was there.

That was a typical Djokovic speech. I am really impressed by the way he handles media.

BTW Tsonga was very animated(as usual) and so was his dad Novak was lucky he didn't play the way he played against Nadal. I was expecting a 5 setter.

Against Nadal all his moves were coming through, he beat Nadal in court coverage and when he was serving he was just rocketing aces.

With this win Tsonga's ranking is jumped up to 18 He would have broke into top 10 if he had won the tourney.

Novak will stay at No.3 i guess. Not very sure
