He Did it Again!

Oh well, both Chinese ladies bounced out in their semi-final matches, but wow-I'm still very impressed with both Li Na and Zheng Jie. Li put on a fight too, eventually succumbing to Serena Williams 7-6, 7-6. Zheng, on the other hand, was blown out in her match, albeit to a very worthy opponent in Justine Henin.

And a couple nights later, Justine Henin failed to complete her comeback story, losing to Serena in a very exciting, three-setter. Henin looked dead in the first set before charging back to take the second. Serena, however, put on the finishing touch by taking the third 6-2. She's now won 5 AO titles-that's also VERY impressive!

And early this morning EDT, Roger Federer took his 16th title with a straight sets victory over Andy Murray. While Murray began to show some form late in the third set, it was too little too late as Federer rallied to an easy victory. This just proves how LEGENDARY Federer is on the court. And though Murray is still missing that Grand Slam trophy on his mantlepiece, I think he will capture it sooner rather than later.

So there's another Australian Open for ya-can't wait for the French. I hope Nadal returns to form and puts on a show in Paris.
