Go Lena D :bounce::banana:

hopefully she is over Bronchitis by the time the open starts

My guess is she'll get a Tuesday start - if she can suck up to the organisers enough to grant her that :) Either Federer or her will have the Monday start.

Go Lena D :banana:

Good Luck LenaD :bowdown:

Lindsay wants to take time off to prepare AO..lol

According to the schedule on Medibank Private International website says both women's SF matches and doubles final on Friday night but it seems doesn't happening! :( PFF @ the website! LOL!

Good Luck LenaD :bowdown:

Hewitt has just won so it will be in the next 10 minutes :)

:bounce:

Go Lena :woohoo: :bowdown:

Go Lena :D

And they're not showing it? :fiery:

I can't believe that Ch 7 went from Sydney where they were showing Hewitt-Mirnyi to Kooyong to show Roger-Tim now.....

They're not showing Sam-Elena live!!!! :eek: What stupid idiots!!!!

They better show it on a replay!

Go Lena D :bigclap:

has the match started? its not showing on the website :fiery:

I think there is a schedule change!

I think you'll find there's a break between matches because they were bidding off Lleyton's racquet.

We've got the Federer/Henman match on delay anyway, since it ended a while ago *sigh*

It's hot out there so it's no surprise they've got a break in between matches.

All becoz' of stupid Max Mirnyi didn't finish Hewitt in 2 sets!!!! :fiery:
Now mess up with the TV schedule!!!??? :mad:

there is now a doubles match on centre court!

Did either Stosur or Dementieva pull out?

That match was supposed to be on Court 2 @ 3pm but they might have moved it to give the girls a chance to play when the heat isn't on *g*

Centre Court - Men's Doubles

Igor Andreev (RUS) / Nikolay Davydenko (RUS)
- - -
Arnaud Clement (FRA) / Michael Llodra (FRA)

So Go Igor and Kolya :clap2:

I'll turn the news on they managed to pick Davenport pulling out before anyone else - let's see if there's anything on there now...

ETA: I don't see either of them pulling out of the Singles SF - they'd have to justify it with the WTA doctor to show them why then they'd be okay for the Doubles final tonight, etc.

When I click the schedule part, it says
Schedule shall be relisted shortly

:confused:

Okay from what I can tell is they've switched the doubles matches around

Putting the other doubles match on Court 2 (after enough rest for Mirnyi, etc)

Stosur/Dementieva will probably start around 4.30pm

Doubles is going on...:scared: :shrug:

No word on the news - so I think they've just done the switch.

:rolleyes: I shall apply for the job of tournament organizer here next year ;)
well.....whenever you get on court....kick some butt Sam :D

According to AOL Tennis news, Elena withdrew from the match, Sam Stosur won by "walkover" :rolleyes:

Dementieva withdrew from the tournament. See both of my posts in General Messages.

:eek: That's two walkover's in one tournament. Sorry about the injury, Elena :sad:

Good luck in the final Sam! :D

wow Sam!
this might be an all aussie final and the aussie team won the doubs too :woohoo:

lena the best!!!go,go.go!!!

:shrug: what a tournament :rolleyes:

OMG Sam is so lucky :( Poor Lena :sad:

Also in case anyone didn't realise because she pulled out with heat illness it also handed the doubles title to Stosur/Stewart :)

One Aussie in - c'mon Alicia - let's make this an All-Aussie day tomorrow :)

Wonder if they're going to put that men's doubles match into tonight's night session instead...

They have put the Bhupathi/Woodbridge doulbes match on tonight after the Molik-Peng match.

Coolies - double Aussie match - if Woody wins that means we'll have a rep in all the finals! :)

Of course I'm hoping this nice predicted thunderstorm comes in and goes away by 7.30pm - but it's getting dark out there now *g*

best of luck for AO...Peng Shuai

Just got back from the match - well about an hour ago but was eating dinner :)

Very impressed with Alicia's form tonight - Peng threw down the gauntlet by breaking her back twice, but to Alicia's credit she immediately broke back, etc.

One thing I wasn't impressed with was the linespeople tonight - some of the calls to both opponents weren't that crash hot.

Alicia will be wanting to wrap up her matches a bit quicker in the future, I think - all credit goes to Peng for that though, she saved 4 or 5 (lost count) match points before Alicia put 2 points together.

Also word of warning, Alicia served a fault tonight at 191km/hr - everyone was like crap, now if that had got in, it would have been another story all together.

By serving 9 aces tonight she raised $9000 for the Adelaide Bushfire Appeal and $18,000 for the Tsunami Appeal :)

love your reporting gossipcom. :worship: :worship: :worship:

Thanks gsm :) I'm off to the final tomorrow then Melbourne next week *here's hoping the weather's a tad better than the heat here*
