I am on Schmieds watch.

She plays Australian conditions well for some reason.

Both Bernard Tomic and Cruz Hewitt were defeated in straight sets.

Sweeney and Ellis the only Aussies to win on the men's side to make it to the next round of qualies.

In a tough match up tmw.

With the pressure on young Hewitt, I'm expecting him to at least get to the quarters because he is meant to be that good. Doesn't matter he is ranked around 1000 in the juniors. BTW I'm only kidding.

Does anyone know why Bernie is still playing tennis - clearly not taking it that seriously.

With no other dedicated AO thread, thought best to post here. Was a bit shocked tbh looking at tickets today, they've really upped the ground pass in recent years. Unless you go the first 3 days or after 5pm seems like ordinary value.

Have to be taking it somewhat seriously to get your ranking up 600 spots in a couple of years and grind it out on the Challenger circuit
