Wow, I honestly thought that Roddick was just going to lay down in the fourth. But he battled and they will go to the fifth. Either way I have a new found respect for Roddick.

The match with Murray was an indicator Roddick
is/was playing much smarter tennis. He is actually
staying in points instead of his give away slugs.

Good match.

Probably best Nadal was injured.
The court this year was much more
of a big hitters court than last year.

Ball stayed much lower this year and
skidded quickly compared to last year's
bounce surface.

Definitely a difference. Probably due to
the heat. I dont think they cut the
courts any differently.
