Kohl survives 0-40 and finally converts his 3rd gp in a huge game. It's 1-1.

Andy almost blew 15-40, but converted his 3rd break opportunity of the game. 3-1 Rod.

Okay ... that was the worst loss of Amelie's career BAR NONE!!! A preposterous, astonishing loss. The type of loss that makes one retire. This is her nadir as a tennis player. Almost a full year of suckitude culminating in this loss to Dellacqua ... something must change, and fast.
All that said, perhaps Casey is really bringing the goods too. She must be better than she looked last I saw her. Crazily, with the way things are going she has a chance to dismiss Jankovic and make the quarters if she stays calm.

I kind of assumed Ana and Novak screwed when they were juniors, or something? Both of them must have so many hot randoms throwing themselves at their feet. There was a story in a Serbian tabloid about them losing virginity to each other at Hopman Cup two years ago. Probably bogus.

Roddick is PISSED at Hawkeye disagreeing with him.
Hee.

"Andy Roddick is an angry man. And now he turns on the crowd! Some of his behaviour has been pretty disgraceful. You suspect the crowd are beginning to side with his opponent."
This often happens in Roddick matches.

Kohl plays a rubbish tiebreak (and kudos to Andy for some awesome points).
We're headed for a fifth.

"Andy Roddick is an angry man. And now he turns on the crowd! Some of his behaviour has been pretty disgraceful. You suspect the crowd are beginning to side with his opponent." This often happens in Roddick matches. The Aussie crowds have always been cool though. Or maybe I just think that because they love Tina and Mon.

Aussies are weird. "Erratic forehand from Kohlschreiber, and Roddick takes the set! Get set for the fifth set. There's nothing between these players." Let's go Phil! Let's go Phil!

Woot. I'm really impressed with Kohl's play.
He MUST win.

I don't know whether to be glad or not that I can't watch this, and indeed can only follow the scoreboard in tiniest, most minimised window ever because I am at stupid work.

"2-3 - Roddick is scampering around the court with commendable energy, but he can't prevent Kohlschreiber taking the game to love."
On serve so far...

Roddick serving to stay in the match.
I nearly had an orgasm when Kohl hit that backhand dtl on the run (See: 6th game. 5th set).
Wow.

Kohl hits lob and stops point to challenge.
Roddick fighting that he can't challenge since he hit the shot.
More boos!
