I watched Australian Open, both Djokovic vs. Wawrinka and the final. I was rooting for Andy Murray, so I was a bit pissed to see Djokovic pull it off once again. I'm not obsessed with tennis, but I do enjoy it when it comes to important matches. My boyfriend is the one who introduced me to this sport last year, and he's been a tennis nut for most of his life, but I swear I'm twice as animated as him when watching tennis together!

Big LOL @ John McEnroe video, by the way. I would not want to be the judge in any game he'd be a part of.

I think the way Murray's been playing he could make a push to at least another slam final, if not both Wimbledon and the US Open. I'm just hoping Nadal's not at his best come French Open cause then there's a chance there too

Yeah, he could win a few more grand slams if all the planets are aligned and so forth, hehe. For me it's gonna be nice when Nadal's back, because he's been injured since I first started watching tennis, and I want to see him play. As long as he doesn't beat Murray, of course. :p

The first big tournament after the Australian Open is starting tomorrow in Indian Wells, CA! Nadal could face Federer in the quarterfinals, looking forward to that. Here's the draw: 2013 BNP Paribas Open

It was a fantastic final. After Andy lost to Del Potro, I wanted Delpo to take it Nadal played like he was never injured in that 3rd set though.
