Australian Open - Women's Second Round
11 Kim Clijsters d Stephanie Foretz Gacon - 60 61
5 Li Na d Olivia Rogowska - 62 62
Fisrt up on Rod Laver was Li Na who lost a mere 4 games.
Next on was Kim who went even faster - a loss of 1 game in 47 minutes.
Glad I wasn't a ticket holder for Laver Arena yesterday! Anyway...
These ladies produced a 3-set thriller in the final last year - Kim prevailed.
They each must win one more match to face-off in the 4th round.
This is the last Aussie Open Kim will ever play. Guess who I'm pulling for?
Yep. Aussie Kim. All year.

Falla Eats Fish at Aussie Open
Australian Open - Men's Second Round
Alejandro Falla d 8 Mardy Fish - 76(4) 63 76(6)
Easily the biggest upset of the entire tournament thus far.
Mardy came into the Aussie Open with high hopes - as all top players do.
However, Justin Gimelstob had even higher hopes. Annoyingly so...
Hopefully this will get Justin to stop banging on about his upward trajectory.
Dude - this is as good as it's gonna get for Mardy.
He's not a top 5 player - please adjust your biased commentary accordingly.
OK, got that off my chest.
LOL: The only spell-check word suggestion for Gimelstob is 'comeliest'.
Jus' sayin'.
