Australian Open January 16th-30th

[Master Splinter]

WTF is Wilander talking about?

He is brilliant though.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nadal held to love, as does Federer. Nadal serving to stay in the first set.

And Wilander was trying to show that's what they do in Australia, just come round to people's houses and take a beer. They'll never live the 'convicts' tag down...

[McNamara That Ghost...]

5-5. Another love service game.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Federer breaks the love service games with a terrible point.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Federer holds though, 6-5.

[Master Splinter]

Federer seems to be going through all phases of his customary bottle job against Nadal in one set.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It's tiebreak time.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It was there for Nadal, he did a Federer though. 3-1 Fed leads and with one serve remaining.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Brilliant from Fed, three set points!

[Master Splinter]

What a half-volley .
