Apparently the one on the right is the coach (the taller of the two I think) and the boyfriend is on the left - according to the commentary.

Yeah, that's right. Tin on the left, Borna on the right.

Ecstatic that Dokic won a set. Won't mind a loss as much now, although would obviously prefer Dokic to go through.

I still think Dementieva's in with a huge chance.

Dokic never gives up, have to give her lots of credit for that.

Woeful shot from Safina, had an open court and missed by a big margin.

 

[inbox24]

TBF I'd rather Dokic win the Aussie Open than Australia win the Ashes this year.

Safina breaks, 5-4. Oh dear.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Absolute rubbish play there from Dokic.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Geez, it's some flawed tennis from both players.

 

[_Ed_]

Yeah, but fascinating nonetheless.

"You should save the challenges for when it really counts."

It's not like the points where Safina used up her challenges were meaningless points though.

There was one which missed by more than 5 cm...

Are the coaches allowed to tell her to challenge?

Boooo.....

There's a reason why they call it women's tennis, ONLY WOMEN ALLOWED.

No..you are supposed to not take outside assistance ..

remember a men match in earlier round where umpire refused to accept challenge because that players coach asked to challenge

When did Dokic get the mole removed?

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Fantastic third set. Dokic lifted so much during the game, great to see.

Rather disappointed in the Aussies' collective wit here tho. "oh shes a man, b4n h3r lulz".

 

[vic_orthdox]

Nah, as an Australian, I'm more pissed off that she stole Matthew Hayden's shoulders.

 

[biased indian]

is safina and Williams in the same half ??

how many mole she had only one or ????

 

[vic_orthdox]

Yeah, only one. Reckon it was about the time that she was going out with the F1 driver.
