@engineer,
Missed that...

Just now I'm reading Lauren Collins on Djokovic and enjoying it. I'm on page 2 of 9 and decided to come here and give the link.

@ossobuco,
So now I like both Nadal and Djokovic...

What a match.

@ossobuco,
Nadal is incredible - after he had to drop out of Wimbledon, his future looked bleak - knee problems seemed to have beaten him. But he has incredible spirit and determination - I truly admire the man. A Nadal/Djokovic match is a dream - great tennis!

A wonderful finals, both for the men and women.

I read the New Yorker article a few days ago and can see how much "Joke" has changed. He's finally getting the chip off his shoulder and evolving into a champion.

Nadal will be No1 tomorrow ... wondering, how he will play versus Djokovic now (match just starting).

@Walter Hinteler,
Djokovic seems to be better ... at least, regarding the winning points ...

@Walter Hinteler,
Now that I like both of them, I was a little confused re which to root for. But - good for Djoko.

@ossobuco,
Djoko won the first semi-final in Shanghai versus Tsonga 2:0.

Nadal vs Del Potro now ... first set 2:6 Shocked

@Walter Hinteler,
Quite a very good match, though not the best day for Nadal, too:
Del Potro wins 6:2, 6:4

@Walter Hinteler,
Good for Del Potro though. Kind of good for tennis to have him jar the seeming proscribed order.

@ossobuco,
Djoko vs Del Potro: 6:1, 3:6, ... and just now: 5:5 ...

.... and Federer dismissed his trainer Annacone (had him for more than 3 1/2 years)

@Walter Hinteler,
Nadal said he was unplayable - haven't heard him say that about anyone before!

@vonny,
Djoko, however, knew how to play with him - he won the 3rd set in tiebreak Wink

The only "advantage" of the heat wave in Australia is that I can watch a couple of matches live (those, which start later).

@Walter Hinteler,
So, there's the chance of watching a Swiss-Swiss final in Melbourne.
But if Murray will agree, too?

Been trying to watch the Australian but with the heat issues; just can't get into it.

@panzade,
you mean the heat has stretched all the way over there!

No heat issue off the court in Melbourne now (but it was awful last week)

Djoko gone!
