Thanks for the update Conchita!  (I depend on you for these!)

[euroka1]

ouch,  54 minutes. Djokovic was simply toying with Roddick who was pretty much clueless. I kinda felt bad for him. Nole was serving, returning, lobbing out of his mind. I think Nole served 14 aces, 86% first serve, 22 winners vs. AR 5 ... ouch, ouch, ouch ... complete destruction

I didn't see this but was glad of the result. I still remember how badly Roddick badmouthed Djokovic when he was going through a rough patch healthwise at the US Open a few years ago. Nole won their encounter there but brought the whole stadium crowd down on himself when he made some unfortunate remarks after the victory.

I'm looking forward to driving to Cincinnati in a couple of weeks.

[Djokovic Champion]

Go go Novak Djokovic!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Alex]

Go go Novak Djokovic!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was wondering where you've been. so mom and dad let you use the internet again. good (just joking btw)

Damnit I like Hewitt, hope he show another fighter spirit.

[oracle86]

Damnit I like Hewitt, hope he show another fighter spirit.

Well, he is certainly showing that today. 

[williamchung7]

Well, he is certainly showing that today. 

Djokovic is slipping everywhere, but he doesn't give up.
The thing I worry is he might get injure if he continues slipping.

[williamchung7]

Hewitt is attacking Djokovic's second serve.

[williamchung7]

OMG OMG, I think Djokovic will get the 2nd set and Hewitt immediately breaks back!!5-4 now Hewitt serves!

[williamchung7]

Djokovic eventually takes 2nd set. I really like what Hewitt try to do.

[williamchung7]

That is reason I like Hewitt, never give up.

[Alex]

I'm not impressed with Djokovic at all ... horrible foot work on grass, moving like a cow (with all respect to cows  .  Kudos to Hewitt. He played tactically a very good match.
