That comment, being so appropriate ATM, is the biggest indictment on the current state of Aussie tennis. Two players through to the 3rd round of a major, and we're happy.Both Dellacqua and Hewitt through to the 3nd round.
Is there anyone onhis side of the draw who can feasibly beat the human sneer (Nadal)? Or is he, as I suspect, nigh on unbeatable here?

Injuries might beat him. Theres only two other guys that have a chance of winning clay court tournaments when Nadal is playing:
Federer - Just cause its Federer, even right now it doesn't look possible for him to beat Nadal on any surface. He beat Nadal in the Hamburg final last year so it could happen again somewhere one day.
Nalbandian - Big match player and has beaten all the top guys. At the top of his game on his day he is brilliant to watch and is scared of anyone. He's knocked out, so the title is Nadal's imo.
No one has a chance not even Djokovic, he's still too mentally weak to compete with Nadal over five hours on a clay court. Maybe in a couple of years.

Well, we were happy having someone get past the first round for the first time in 10 years. And then she took Jankovic to a tie-break, which I thought was a decent effort.

Think I'd be happy if we had someone in the qualifiers tbh.

Agreed
Did you see her press conference? Lol'd quite hard, especially at the sight of her substantial arse leaving the picture as she walked about a second or 2 after her face did.

Okay, wtf?
Soderling is annihilated by Benneteau after dominating the first set
Wawrinka loses after being 2 sets up
Davydenko chokes to Ljubicic after being 2 sets up
Robby Ginepri keeps winning
Thank Christ I've stopped betting on the French for a few days. Would have lost plenty, particularly with Davydenko vs. Ljubicic. Genuinely shocked at that result.

look at the tips thread, i tipped against him. Soderling has never impressed me.
