Dolgopolov takes the fourth set 6-2.
Tense fifth set :bow:.
Dolgopolov should be used to them by now.
Whoever wins plays Federer next.
Should just pull out now really. Dolgopolov will probably have to.
Tomic you bastard. :lol:
Tomic raised his racquet and then said he didn't challenge, Dolgopolov then put the next shot long, then he rightly had a go at the umpire - swearing too. :bow:
Tomic breaks and leads 3-1 in the fifth set.
It was really bad sportsmanship from Bernard.
Come on Dolgopolov.
Del Potro through in straight sets.
Dolgoplov is serving to stay in the match at 5-2 down.
And he does so. Tomic to serve it out.
Tomic wins 4-6 7-6 (7-0) 7-6 (8-6) 2-6 6-3.
The BBC site has the second set tiebreak as 7-5. :lol:
Brilliant tennis.
The most slices you'll see in a match not featuring Murray.
It's good to see players like Tomic and Dolgopolov with more variety heading to the top of the game.
Australian Open :bow: Second best major tennis tournament.
Glad to see the Aussie get through. He is a talent but it will be tough against The Fed.
Whats first?

Monfils on the verge of going out as he trails Kukushkin 6-2 5-2 and is carrying an injury. Still hasn't pulled out yet, though. Murray or Llodra will play the winner of this match.

Llodra gets one round the post. :bow:
