I'm watching Hingis, she was really unlucky at 30-30, Shuai's defensive lob just caught the line, and than at set point Martina hit a pretty shitty 2nd serve that Peng easily attacked and won the set.
But Hingis is very agressive and coming to the net a lot, which is a good sign. I think she still has a good chance to win this.

He's got big muscles. Little too old in the face, though.  Oh, and Roger is winning. I didn't even know. Heh. |

Too bad. I keep hoping that Spanky has some good luck after his tough loss to Guga, and 7 years later I'm still waiting!

BOO MARTINA!
If she loses, just cancel the women's event.

Tina trailing 6-4. After beating up on Monica 15 times in 20 matches, one would imagine Tina would know how to handle the double double-handers. Pathetic backhand error by Tina. Melanie needs to start hitting her or something.

GO PENG!!!! I like Tina, but I'm rooting for the underdog today.  |

Okay, so Peer b. PENG 0 and 1.
PENG b. Hingis 6-4
That means, Peer b. Hingis 6-0 without losing a point!

Hingis just challenged an obviously correct call (it was visibly out by a mile). I'll never understand this.

Spanky and The Love Muscle = Michael Russell Oh! I thought maybe it was a new nickname for Hingis. She looks a little bit like Spanky from the old Little Rascals films. ;D |

I remember when Guga drew the heart in the clay after that match -- Russell said "I thought he was going to invite me to play tic tac toe."

They are maybe saving it for later in the broadcast?

I get one or two rallies and then they switch over to another match. Right now, we're treated to yet another Roger early-round scrub thrashing. Yawn. |

I guess we'll get Hingis again in a few minutes? Probably she's gone to the lockerroom to change her shirt and hairdo and have a good cry, like in the RG final of '99.

Fed wins 6-4, 6-1, 6-0. It's like the days when Steffi owned the WTA and all the scrubs were thrashed in the opening rounds of GS tournaments.

Weird stats for Tina - 24 W and 16 UE. She must be swinging from the heels.  |

Still no Tina for us in the US. And I don't even care because now the most important thing is that POTITO'S GETTING KILLED OUT THERE!!  |

I've got Mike Crispino and Rennae Stubbs commentating Tina's match. Stubbs commentating on Tina. Hee. Mike is a useless commentator, if he can even be called that.
Tina looking good for the 3-set win, unless she pulls a Wimbledon-like stunt.
