My God, I think I'm seeing the future of British tennis!  Alex Bogdanovic is 
actually leading Lleyton Hewitt in the first set, and, more importantly, 
looks like a natural and is making Hewitt look ordinary at the moment.  I'm a 
bit of a tennis purist, and lament the rise of muscled thumpers and superfit 
grinders (of whom Hewitt is the apotheosis).  Bogdanovic has a lovely, fluid 
one-handed backhand, reminding me of Justine Henin, just about my favourite 
player on the women's tour.

Since I started typing this, Hewitt has broken back, but hey, he is the 
world's number one, and our boy is about 450...
