Sydney line up looks fantastic - the whole top 10 except Sharapova & 18 out of the top 20 have confirmed.

Sounds great :clap:

Cant wait for Hobart though ;) roflmao

Ooh no - that'll be the main event of the year for me :D roflmao

Can't wait to see Serena taken to three sets by the likes of Megan Shaugnessy :rolleyes: roflmao

Oi! Megan's top 40 dont you know? roflmao

i hope Serena uses this just to work off the extreme cobwebs in her game. The forehand needs polishing, i've noticed, At the Open, just not hitting cleanly and the footwork all wrong, not making room for the forehand. Serve did look great though in patches, so she's not in completely dire straits.

2007 is the year to work Serena! :ok:

purlease, Shaugnessy would win in two B) (against Hingis I mean roflmao )

Can't sleep (due to jetlag), and Martina is currently losing the first set against Safina. And there it goes ... 6-3 to Marat's little sister.

Looks like she only faced a single break point, while she had three against Dinara - tennis can be quite cruel sometimes. Still, she may yet pull this back.

Martina's broken early in the second, for 2-0. Let's see if she can hold on to the break and level the match.

Well, she didn't. Now it's 4-3 to Hingis, on serve.

Martina took the second set 6-3 :bigwave:

She had a break point in the first game of the third as well, but didn't convert. So it's 1-0 to Safina at the moment.

Still on serve in the third --- 2-1 to Safina. I think I'll give sleeping a try again ... good luck, Martina.

What about Bangalore? Serena will face equally tough opponents there, I mean Mara Santangelo is the defending champion ;)

Cant forget Mara, the big shot that she is ;) roflmao
