Happy New Year 2011!

opppss...am I late?

well, as the old saying says, 'better late than never' ;)


I'm back to update my blog
coz Australian Open is here and it begins today
and the good news is
Andy Roddick & Venus Williams cruised to the next round

please! let Roddick win this time
it's very frustrating to see him reached semifinals four times in Australian Open
and yet never advanced to the final

I hope 2011 is a good year for Andy Roddick
he is already 28 years old
and I'm sure he will retire soon
but hopefully before he hangs his rackets
he will win grand-slams
Australian or Wimbledon, fingers-crossed!

The Williams sisters won the Women's Double in Melbourne

Too bad Jie Zheng and Li Na lost in semis. I really was hoping one of them cruised to the finals. Well, never mind. It's up to Serena Williams now. Hope she can defend her title in Melbourne.

Serena vs Justine today!

Andy Murray vs Roger Federer tomorrow

I'm gonna pick Serena and Andy to win ;)

Latest updates:

"Hello...good evening everybody"
that was Nadal's first line during his acceptance speech

Rafa
beats
Roger Federer
7-5, 3-6, 7-6, 3-6, 6-2

to claim
The Australian Open Championship

congrats to you RAFA!

meanwhile

RF was in tears. He said he was too emotional. Maybe he was so disappointed he didn't make history! Rafa comforted him by saying, he still has chances to claim his 14th grand slams and wishes him good luck. That should be the way, Melbourne is not the end. There is still French, Wimbledon and USA open.

Thanks to Novak Djokovic who retired during the fourth set

My picked for Philly's audition

the weirdest contestant so far

The American Idol season 7 premiered last night. It was a two hours audition done in Philadelphia. I had picked one or two contestants who has the potential. But even so, I'll wait for the other auditions. They had given 29 tickets to Hollywood on this audition. Can't wait for the next one!

I didn't concentrate watching the American Idol coz Andy Roddick was playing against Michael Berrer of Germany on the other channel of the Australian Open 2008. Of course I stayed on this channel and watched Roddick's game. He won 6-2, 6-2, 6-4. And he is the leader of serve speed on day 2 when he served a 235km/h. He will meet another German player, Philipp Kohlschreiber (29) in third round.

In Women's singles, Henin, Sharapova, Serena, Amelie, Sugiyama to name a few cruise to the third round.
