I've never seen someone congratulate their opponent before the end of the match and on the last point, start walking to the net instead of returning the shot ... WTF?

I just wish they would compare Tomic to a few more top players - feel like we haven't heard enough about Tomic and his 2 wins for the tournament have been lost in amongst the rest of the tennis action.

two injuries ... one physical and one mental.

He should have either played out the match properly or defaulted.

I'd love to see Federer win and Serena lose. Perfect in the absence of any Aussies
