I have missed the Sheik's Stosur spray this time round but the Aussies seem to be doing OK.
I'm not a great tennis watcher but I don't mind a close game ... or a one-sided game when one of the young Aussies is doing well and it was great to see Ash Barty win again after her brief flirtation with cricket. She seems to have settled down to life as a tennis professional.
One thing that struck me about Bernard Tomic's game tonight was that his opponent, Victor Estrella Burgos, had run one kilometre more than Bernard before they got to the fourth set tiebreaker. That's an incredible difference for a game played on a small court. Tomic seems to be a master at conserving energy.
