Sharapova lost just 5 games before this match. She was up 3-0 with 2 breaks and Lisicki won just 2 points. Then I started watching and Lisicki won 6 straight games, saving break points on her serve and winning the set 6-3 If only this would have continued! But we can't ask for too much in one day, I suppose. Though I was going to root for SW to take out MS.

There is great joy in Melbourne Mighty Hewie has broken the King and will serve for the set

2nd set point, and I find I am NOT HATING Hewitt! Which proves the world really is ending in 2012. 3rd SP ...

Serena losing may just be the greatest moment of this tournament. Too bad I was at work and missed it.

Has Nole always worn this large crucifix?

Too bad about my other championship pick biting the dust, but woohoo Nishikori. Amazed about the set win by Hewitt. Silliams. JieJie. WussWuss. Lisicki. At least we hopefully know Sharapova is vulnerable now.

Y'all are overstating Shitra btw. She comes and goes but Petra wins matches despite her. (Against BAG she only came for that three-game spell - and then Petra swept the match when she had to.) Agreed. As I noted in the CSN match, Petra has seemed to learn how to dial back when the bad waves are coming. Her serve also helps, it saved her in the 5-6 game. Shitra is still concerning, though. Because what she got away with vs. BAG, she won't against Masha.

Djokovic losing a set is stunning. I thought that match would be 2, 2, and 1.

Has Nole always worn this large crucifix? Yes. It gets in the way of Sexy Time SO MUCH, I HATE IT

He's been awarded the highest honour decoration by the Serbian Orthodox Church because he's such a model Christian and gives money to Serbian monasteries in Kosovo so that they wouldn't have to sell their land to Albanians and blah.
