6-4 6-4 6-7 6-2 I couldn't believe it, Hewitt had to do it in 7 setpoints. Murray shouldn't be ashamed he lost to Chela. I would have never ever thought Lleyton would lose  Do disappointed... Unbelievable! Chela is amazing! |

i wasnt so surprised cos a lot of ppl had said hewitt wasnt playing well and he seemed to struggle in the first round but definitely shows that andys result wasnt embaressing- he just didnt play anywhere near his level

Yep that's right. Didn't see any of the match, does the result flatter Chela at all? Wasn't there something about Hewitt having a bad ankle or is that somebody looking for an excuse??

I was listening to the commentary and it sounds like Chela played Hewitt off the court for the first couple of sets. The tiebreak sounded like wonderful tennis by both of them as well - and I think the scoreline for the last set says it all...

I know I'm paranoid. But am I paranoid enough?

Hewitt has a lingering virus and went out early in his last 2 tournaments as well. So don't get too excited.

Absolutely.  Unfortunately I fell asleep, but Chela was playing the tennis of his life when I was watching. Unlike his match against Andy when not even Andy's greatest, most blinkered fan, could say he played anywhere near his capabilities. And Lleyton's been suffering, yet again, from a stomach virus. |

I saw most of it and chela really took advantage of the fact that hewitt was below par. absolutely played him off the court. i got the impression that even if Hewitt had been 100% he may still have had trouble seeing him off. If Chela plays this well the whole tournament he could trouble most players in the draw. problem with his career is that he's not exactly consistant though.

Yeah, I thought Ollie Rochus would be the best Belgian after Kim Clijsters, but it became Kristof Vliegen. I am so watching that match, they have got to cover it!

Yeah, me too! I'm sure Canvas will cover it, won't they? As long as Clijsters doesn't play at the same time (if she plays at all...)
