Very one-dimensional game but Agassi don't seem to have an answer to his serve. I'm thinking of betting on Johansson to win the match if he wins the first set. Should I?

bookies are terrorised by his serve too...they now offer both of them at 1.83
Hope he doesn't let me down or I'll be mad at forre Sharapova also in trouble..that Italian is in good shape. I can imagine how p.o Agassi must be now early danger , Agassi laying the smack already... ok, safe...17 aces |

The guy's a beast. If I were Johansson and losing I'd direct a serve at Agassi's head.

One set all...I've got no idea who's gonna win this match.
edit - Johansson just broke Krajicek's record...he's got 51 aces...but he lost. |

well, at least Johansson broke the world record. Agassi used his experience and skills to win this game which was decided on mere detail.
(and I lose 10 quid ) |

Bad day at the office eh? There's still the Rochus match to go so you might get some money back.

yeah I'm watching just now. Nadal is excellent but if the match goes to a 5th set I think Hewitt can clinch it. He's hanging on.
What do you think of Coria - Nalbandian later? |

Great comeback by Hewitt...I thought Nadal had him in the 4th set. I'm watching Nalbandian-Coria now...Coria is winning so far, but it's very close and Coria looks like he's injured.
There were quite a few upsets on the women's side today. But I'm happy that Schnyder is through coz I like watching her. |

Nalbandian is playing better now...some of the rallies are fantastic and the games way too long...as expected.
I have invested interest in Nalbandian winning this match I went for him out of sympathy, I mean everybody was picking Coria Very decisive game now for Nalbandian to go one set up. |

It feels pretty wierd with a tennis match being played at 1.30am...the stadium is practically empty....Nalbandian is looking good now. I want the match to go to 5 sets and everyone will be half-asleep

Nalbandian seems to be on his way...I'm good at predicting the outcomes of the matches now that we've reached the quarter finals. So I'll post my predictions for tomorrow later. My initial feeling is that Sharapova will beat Kuznetsova but I haven't seen the others yet.
ps. they finished at 2.05 in the morning but I remember the guy who won the Olympic medal was playing till 2:45 |

Yep, it's gonna be Nalbandian the winner. What do you think about Federer-Agassi and Safin-Hrbarty? I'm not placing any bets though (no money)

Federer will surely beat Agassi. The odds the bookmakers offer don't give justice to Agassi at all. Molik's odds were 1.60+ and so were Nalbandian's...but Federer pays 1.20-1.25 versus Agassi. So apparently Federer will up his game to his usual standards and dispose of Ande.
About Safin-Hrbaty, well the odds are 1.30, so Safin is the hot fav. But I'll hopefully know more about them 2 hours before the games. Doesn't look it's gonna be a surprise though.... Womens may be more interesting...wonder if Molik or Amelie have any chance |
