.:Monday scores/results:.

Good luck Ivo & Ivan!!

good luck to ivo and ivan!!! (i'm guessing they won't be on tv if silvija isn't :mad: )

matches are supposed to start now right?

They just have.

please dont post live scores... just cheer for your fav guy

Ljubicic vs. Tursunov 1-0

come on Ljubo!

Nice job getting broken in the first game Robby :rolleyes:

Ivan 2-1

go Ivan!

please dont post live scores... just cheer for your fav guy

Are the numbers painful for you or something? Unfortunately many of these matches may not involve a "fave guy", and the information could certainly be appreciated by people on here, so I will if that's all the same to you.

hey im just saying that there are live scores on australianopen.com and that theyre very live... We can all use that site, ok? And Yes, numbers do become very painful when there are 10 matches going on at once.

watch out Sjengster you may be called a board nazi ;)

As for the open does the live scoreboard work from the official site, I keep getting no matches in progress!

board nazi doosch

They are going now. :)

GOOOOOOOOOOO CHRIS!!!!

Ando, hit refresh and also select "matches in progress" from all those options.

star, appears he's started out well :)

I second it. :)

But there's no stopping people from doing what they want.

Is working IBM scoreboard??

Is working.

I'm doin it right, guess my browser at work just doesn't want to accept it, oh well, at least I can just walk down the road after work and catch some of the late action live :)

Not for me it isn't, it's as slow as hell and it keeps breaking down. So, how uncanny - you've been spared the nightmare of live scoring from me at least...

it isn't working for me either :mad:

my IBM scoreboard not working!
any help??

ivan 4-3* :) now break!

ivan has wasted 3 bps :mad:

Ljubicic 4 - 3 Tursunov*

break him now!:fiery:

hej croat...

jel ti radi IBM scoreboard?

da, radi mi

ovaj je website tako cudan, nekad radi, nekad ne...

kod mene uope nece uci u njega:fiery:

It's going fine for me.

Anyone interested in any non-croatian matches? Cause you're getting the scores on them.

chance for ivan at 15-30...
30-30...
40-30 :mad:

It's early doors in all the men's matches, although Guccione got an immediate break against fellow Aussie wildcard Jones. In fact, the rather more interesting scoreline is on the women's side, where Dementieva has somehow found herself 5-1 down in the first set. But that is a discussion for another board...

Couple of shockers on the women's side

guccione 6-3
golmard 5-4 no breaks
clement 4-4
ginepri 5-4 no breaks
chela 5-4 no breaks, but set point
ljubicic 4-3, no breaks, just wasted bp again :rolleyes:
beck 4-3 no breaks
lapentti 5-1
andreev 6-4 0-1

Ivan 4-4:fiery:

fight Ivan!!!

jankovic up 5-1 :eek:

make that 6-1 :bolt:

ivan 4-4 :fiery:

See, why can't we talk about the women here.

Tanasugarn is in a predicament as well.

Is everyone up to speed now on the AO scoreboard?

It sounds like it.

GO CHRIS
and NICO

Elena has always been a slow starter. I think she will get it together in the 2nd set :)

ivan 5-4* :)

petrova is in trouble too, tbe must be going crazy

Ivan 5-5:fiery:

wake up Ivan!!!

ivan 5-5 :fiery:

I'm about to give up on the IBM scoreboard, it lasts for roughly two clicks before freezing yet again. Screw it, these opening matches aren't the most interesting... Davydenko seems to be wasting breakpoints all over the place against Clement. Chela won the first set, and Special K had an early break against madman Beck but lost it.

Clement is going for the break at 6-5.

He's up 30-0.

ivan 6-5 :D

Sjengster, sometimes it works for me just to follow the matches in progress when the scoreboard is acting up. Mine's going fine just at the moment.

dont use ibm scoreboard; use http://www.australianopen.com/en_AU/scores/index.html

its better because you can see all the scores at once

That's true, you see 'em all, but it takes a while to refresh... every time I go back to the IBM one the scoreline seems to be further behind the last time - isn't that the wrong way round?

my scoreboard is also messing up every now an then.
why can't they even make a good grand slam website???

Elena has always been a slow starter. I think she will get it together in the 2nd set :)


Yes. I think she dumped that first set. 2-0 now.

Tanasugarn is even 2 all.

Petrova struggling to get to 2 all.

go dmitry tursonov i hope you destroy lubicic quickly b/c this forum will get filled with live scores from your match

That's true, you see 'em all, but it takes a while to refresh... every time I go back to the IBM one the scoreline seems to be further behind the last time - isn't that the wrong way round?

Seems to be.

Portas and Davydenko with early tiebreak leads - Koubek lost the first set, the idiot! Chela and Andreev are cruising, up a set and a break on their opponents, and so is Guccione, I'd say he's in the second round already.

I'm using the scoreboard to see all the scores at once... there's too much going on otherwise lol

nice job taking 1st set Robby!

Clement 4-2 in the tiebreak

Ivan 6-6:fiery:

come on Ivan,win the tb!

ivan wasted 15-30 and 3 second serves :fiery:

6-6 :fiery: i hate tbs!!

GO TURSONOV

i love paradorn, that's hardly fair - by that logic you should constantly root against azza's favourite players (ie most Aussies, including Philippoussis, Guccione and Molik - big serving fixation?) because he has a tendency to fill scoring threads with point by point updates. Mind you, in his case I wouldn't mind doing that...

ok i retract my second to previous statement but still, go tursonov

Chris is about to solidify his break in the second.

Dementieva looks to be asserting herself nicely now. :)

Nico!!!!

Set point for Arnaud.

hey star, Soderling/Schuettler should be starting any minute :)

Golmard won the first set 7-6, 7-3 in the breaker. I hope he can go a round, I thought he'd retired by now (career-wise, not in matches, since he holds the record there).

Ivan 4-2 in tb:)

come on Ivan!

IVAN TOOK THE FIRST SET!! 7-6(2) :woohoo:

Ivan won 7-2 in tie break:)

keep going Ivan!
This must going much easier!!!:fiery:

Choke. Clement 8-6. Whew.

hey star, Soderling/Schuettler should be starting any minute :)

:woohoo:

don't worry bl@de

tursunov is very talented and much better than his ranking. i was him play a few times during the us open.

Chela's rolling now, 6-4 *4-0. Koubek continues to slide inexorably down, I was looking forward to a potential third round against Agassi. They've never played before, and the contrast in styles could have been entertaining...

was = saw :o

ivan broke :D

7-6(2) 1*-0

there ya go star it started :)

Choke. Clement 8-6. Whew.

I wondered why it was taking so long to update... still, wouldn't be a Clement match without a few, ahem, minor hiccups along the way, would it? ;)

eeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Petrova just got broken.

And Tammy is down a break in the second too.

oops... Wierd Al broke back on Dementieva.

Ivan finally broke:rolleyes:

Ivan 7-6,1-0

hold now ivan!

I wondered why it was taking so long to update... still, wouldn't be a Clement match without a few, ahem, minor hiccups along the way, would it? ;)

Yeah. R-No is that kind of guy. He's very cute though. :)

Whats the score in the golmard portas match and who is on serve

Kuerten will be happy at the scoreline now considering that he would have to play the winner in the second round and he lost first round to Tursunov at the Open... but then, Ljubicic being a big server is hardly his idea of fun either, and first he has to get past van Lottum, who I remember was completely thrashing him in the first round of Wimbledon last year when he had to retire in the second set.

Ivan 7-6,2-0:D

keep going Ivan!

ivan leads 7-6(2) 2-0*

It's 7-6 (3), 1-1 to Golmard, Portas serving.

I think Guga should stop bothering to travel to Australia. :)

thanks sjengster - still can't get the matches in progress scoreboard working

ivan 7-6(2) 2*-1

Soderling vs Schuettler *2-0

Kapros. Petrova serving to stay in the match and down -0-30

30 all now.

eeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Petrova just got broken.

And Tammy is down a break in the second too.

oops... Wierd Al broke back on Dementieva.

Woh, major first-round upsets brewing in the women's draw - who would have thought it?

And star, I've heard of this Weird Al Jankovic bloke, he's been in a couple of Naked Gun films - what's the deal with him?

star, Robin broke!!!

Soderling vs Schuettler *2-0

:bounce: ROBIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Weird Al is god..... he is amazing, he does parodies of popular songs. I love him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Weird Al is god..... he is amazing, he does parodies of popular songs. I love him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So what do you think of Jelena Jankovic?

Triple match point for Kapros!!

She is going to be over the moon!

Hmm, Schuettler broken already? Looks as though he should thank his lucky stars that Moya is suspect physically, because he's about to lose that 1000-point ranking gap he has at the moment. He'd still remain no. 6 in the world, but it would be awful if he lost all those points, I was looking forward to a Schuettler-Escude second round.

my scoreboard stopped working :fiery:

He just makes parodys of popular songs. Clever.

Beat It..... becomes Eat it.

So what do you think of Jelena Jankovic?

No clue who she is lol

I mean I don't know anything about her lol

Sheesh, I hadn't even noticed - Koubek is suddenly doing a Gaudio. He held to 4-4 in the first set, since then madman Beck has won eight games on the spin and has a 6-4, 6-0 lead. I sense a double bagel in store for special K... why oh why?

Soderling vs Schuettler *3-0

Whoo! 3-0 for Robin :)

Guccione was broken back

And we have the first match over and a first casualty, Petrova bumped out 3 and 3... although considering that injury she got in her last tournament, is this much of a surprise?

Guccione vs. Jones 6-3,5-5
Golmard vs. Portas 7-6,3-2
Clement vs. Davydenko 7-6,1-2
Ginepri vs. Horna 7-5,3-2
Labadze vs. Chela 4-6,2-5
Beck vs. Koubek 6-4,6-0
Hernandez vs. Lapentti 1-6,2-3
Patience vs. Andreev 4-6,4-6

my scoreboard stopped working :fiery:

Sorry Croat. Can I help?

Does anyone know whether they have a netcam with the scoreboard at the AO? I can't see one....

anymore mnews on golmard portas

ivan leads 7-6(2) 3-1* :)

ok, if it stops working, go to another site, like yahoo.com, and then come back to the ao site and it should work...

Ljubicic vs. Tursunov 7-6,3-1:D

I wonder whether Guccione's choke serving for two sets to love will cost him the match...? Ah, I've missed GS tennis, there's always so much happening in the early rounds.

:woohoo: Robin.

I had Robin in four for this match.

3-2 portas in the second

hehe star..... so besides the fact that he's swedish why do you like him?

ivan wasting bps :mad:

Guccione is playing now on Channel 7, for you Aussies.

Coverage started about 25 minutes ago.

anymore mnews on golmard portas

Golmard 7-6, 2-3 On serve

Guccione is playing now on Channel 7, for you Aussies.

Coverage started about 25 minutes ago.

Ohhhhhhhhh I guess he got nervous with the cameras ;)

Can you give details?

SteveG, it's now 2-2 and deuce on Portas' serve, Golmard's missed a breakpoint.

Tanasugarn is a game away from defeat! And Dementieva just came back from being a break down having lost 4 games in a row... boy, these are surprises! Special K got a break at last - begin the comeback!

Tammy is out.

well 3 women's matches finished and 2 seeds upset. wowie...

bps wasted :fiery:

ivan leads 7-6(2) 3*-2 :)

OK, the Croatian posters got there first...

Soderling vs Schuettler *3-1

saved 2 break points

soderling is playing patiently...hitting every he wants..but schuettler's rally are failing him...full of unforced errors...

Ginepri broke in the second! :yeah:

Ivan wasted bp again:rolleyes:

Ivan 7-6,3-2

hold now,Ivan!

Margaret Court Arena, leading 6-3, 6-6 against Alan Jones...going into tiebreaker. This is Chris by the way!

huge upsets in women's draw :eek: dementieva about to go out too...

hey sjengster your Koubek broke to start the 3rd!

Plus Dementieva is in HUGE trouble.

Jankovic is serving for the match.

R-No up a break

Schuettler broke back.

Soderling vs Schuettler 3-2*

schuettler breaks back!!!!

R-No :haha::haha:

Damm him!!!

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr :fiery:

Come on Robin!!!!

Eeep, I meant Alun Jones. &it's currently 3-3 in tiebreak.

anymore news on golmard portas

4 women's matches finished.... 3 seeds out :eek:

Thanks bunk, I noticed, he did come back from 2-0 down in sets in the first two rounds when he made the quarters here in 2002 - he was 0-6, 1-6, 1-4, 15-40 down against Saulnier and somehow won 8-6 in the fifth, and then came back to win in five against Blake the next round. Come on K!

What with Moya's injury and these bizarre Russian collapses, I suppose TBE has at least some consolation that Schuettler's on the way out already... I just wish it was someone whose dislike we both had in common. I'm not naming any names here...

ivan saved 0-30 :)

ivan leads 7-6(2) 4-2*

C'm ON, Chris!!

amazing :eek: jankovic won!

I just wish it was someone whose dislike we both had in common. I'm not naming any names here...

Thank you!

Hey, Schuettler broke back! Guccione pulling away in the tiebreak, Clement now up a break at *3-2 in the second, Ginepri two sets to love...

Thanks bunk, I noticed, he did come back from 2-0 down in sets in the first two rounds when he made the quarters here in 2002 - he was 0-6, 1-6, 15-40 down against Saulnier and somehow won 8-6 in the fifth, and then came back to win in five against Blake the next round. Come on K!

Please don't put the jinx on Robin. He's got enough of an uphill battle. :)

Schuettler evened the match.

Guccione now leads 2sets to love!

ivan up 7-6(2) 4*-3 :)

On serve. 3-4

Do you have money on this match?

guccione (spl) up 2 sets to love

Woh, Czink beat Vento-Kabchi in straights! Ah... that's not an upset at all. My bad.

I see Lapentti is proceeding on his merry, extremely slow way against Hernandez with a two sets to love lead.

interesting.... now only men's matches going on!

Oh dear, it appears that if we continue doing these 5/second progress updates this post is going to be extremely long...

That was the correct spelling.

:woohoo:

ginepri up 2 sets to love vs. horna

Soderling vs Schuettler 3-4*

schuttler playing better...he breaks...

Hmm, Schuettler now with 0-40 on Soderling's serve... do you think we should get TBE to the emergency ward or anything?

Robin was just broken at love

Robin lost his lead...as I guessed.

we haven't had live scores in such a long time, we should enjoy it (and maybe set a menstennisforums.com record for most posts in a thread :o )

good guess star

hey star, guga's up next!!

star all your peeps are playing now..... Thomas is playing against Spadea now too. and guga will start any minute.

ivan leads 7-6(2) 5-3 :D

we haven't had live scores in such a long time, we should enjoy it (and maybe set a menstennisforums.com record for most posts in a thread :o )

I'll say, I'm certainly enjoying it - and I'm not even a Ljubicic fan! ;) Enqvist and Spadea have just begun - I want whoever can give Agassi a tougher time to win, and these two have the credentials to do that...

What is the record for most posts in a thread?

SteveG, you should be a happy man soon - Golmard is now serving for two sets to love at *5-4 in the second.

Ginepri broke in the third :yeah:

Robin. :sad:

Nasty Rainer broke him

Doesn't Rainer know that beating Robin could move him off my favorites list???????

Soderling vs Schuettler *3-5

Schuettler winning five games in a row!!!

only four aces for ivan in the match, but he is doing great on his serve. it appears he is focusing more on placement than power. he himself said that his forehand is greatly improved :)

Oh well, I won't be on here when

this guy
<---

is playing tonight (that is if I get to see the match), so there will be a chunk of posts from that match not coming from me, lol.

Anyway, Chris G. update - up 1-love third set. Just blew break point.

Paradorn's on court now too.

What is the record for most posts in a thread?

Whatever we can reach, it'll be nowhere near the Hewitt fans' total over in their private forum - I'm telling you, they've started chat threads that run about 600 pages long, so you can only imagine how many posts that is. I've dipped into them and they're mostly mundane gossip every few seconds... finding the tennis-related stuff can be tricky. ;)

What is the record for most posts in a thread?
no clue, but i'm sure we'll break it tonight!

ivan leads 7-6(2) 5*-4 :)

Thanks sjengster

good guess star

There was a certain tense pointedness to your questions. :)

Ivan 7-6,5-4:)

hold now,Ivan!

Soderling vs Schuettler 4-5*

if soderling wants to win..he gotta play more aggressively than just rallies... schuttler's unforced errors from the basline are dropping fast... soderling must pressurise him....

golmard won the second 6-4

Whatever we can reach, it'll be nowhere near the Hewitt fans' total over in their private thread - I'm telling you, they've started chat threads that run about 600 pages long, so you can only imagine how many posts that is. I've dipped into them and they're mostly mundane gossip every few seconds... finding the tennis-related stuff can be tricky. ;)


Oh goodness, 600 pages? Some people can get bored, lol. At least all this is tennis related, right? Ahem. :)

Sjengster, the question about who was on serve gave it away.

Golmard with a 7-6 (3), 6-4 lead, your bet looks secure. Guccione is also racing away with a 3-0 lead in the third, evidently Jones' second-set fightback was only temporary.

Dent/Verdasco now on court, too.

Chris G. looks pretty much to take the set in my opinion. (Hurry up).

IVAN WON THE SECOND 6-4!! :woohoo:

Ljubicic vs Tursunov 7-6(2),6-4

come on Ivan win the 3rd now!

Koubek won the third set 6-2, the comeback is on. Labadze also has a third-set break on Chela - go crazy erratic lefties!

Soderling vs Schuettler *4-6

Schuettler takes the first set... it's still early....

*eyes dart around* who said something about crazy lefties? :p

ivan leads 7-6(2) 6-4 0*-1

Hey bunk, I'm only referring to this particular pair of lefties in Koubek and Labadze - I'd hardly bracket all lefties with the same "crazy" tag, considering that I'm one myself...

I know I was making fun of myself (calling myself crazy).... lefties RUUUUUUUUUUUUULE :rocker2:

Finally, the explanation. ;)

I just mixed my metaphors there, didn't I? Still, now the cat's out of the bag I've opened up a whole can of worms...

Lefties are nifty.
Though I'm a righty.

If I see one more McDonalds 9g Chicken Caesar Salad ads in the commercial break again I will scream.

By the way Chris G up 4-1.

Go KEN!!!!!!

Finally, the explanation. ;)

ahem...... excuuuuuuuuuuse you??????? ;):p

Irrelevant note: We still have a long way to go before we reach 600 pages +. Lol, considering only on the 14th at the moment, but hey - first day first hour!

hey Sjengster, your man's playing:)

Soderling vs Schuettler 4-6, 1-0*

no clue, but i'm sure we'll break it tonight!

Highly doubtful.

Now if we kept this thread all the way through the entire tournament, then we'd do it. ;)

pfffffff ivan lost serve :fiery:

7-6 6-4 0-2

Ah, so... the Sjengster has begun. Sorry star, but this is Schalken's best ever chance to actually do something at the AO given El Aynaoui's dodgy foot, and I want him to take it. Go Sjeng!

Golmard now leading two sets to love and a break at *2-1... SteveG laughing all the way to the bank (in theory).

Chris leads third set 5-2.

Take as long as you want, Rainer. ;)

ivan hit a df and three ues in that game :o

Guga's started too, star!

Tursonov has got a bit of a second wind. 2-0

I've liked what I've seen of this young man, but I haven't seen much.

damn!!!
Ivan got broken:fiery:

0-2 in 3rd:mad:

fight Ivan!

Yes, the custom is to create new scoring threads for each day... now if we kept this as one universal scoring thread for the whole tournament it might just break the record.

Soderling vs Schuettler 4-6, *1-1

Golmard up 4-1 for our friend, Steve.

Has anyone else noticed that poor old Horna has been stuck playing the same service game early in the third for about 20 minutes now? Still, he did take out Federer at last year's RG, so... put him through the mill, Robby!

Go P-dorn

Aaaargghhh! OK, that's an overreaction, but I just realised that I broke 2000 posts on here without even realising it! I wanted to mark the occasion...

lol I did notice that sjengster.... is it just going back and forth to deuce or is it being buggy?

Soderling vs Schuettler 4-6, 2-1*

MP for Chris.

Gone in a glimmer.... It was against serve, so not so bad.

Ah terrific, madman Beck now has a fourth-set break on special K, serving at 3-1... typical!

6-3, 6-7, 6-2

Yea Chris!!!

The first Aussie through.

Soderling vs Schuettler 4-6, *2-2

LOL, the commentator just made an ass out of himself.

LOL, the commentator just made an ass out of himself.
lol :haha:

star, where do you live?

ivan broke back (finaly) :)

ivan leads 7-6(2) 6-4 1*-2

guga broken :sad:

This can't be a frozen scoreboard, Horna and Ginepri really are trying to contest the longest service game in the history of tennis. Will someone win it please?!

Lapentti is handing out the most leisurely thrashing you could possibly get, two sets to love and a double break at 4-1 but he's taking his time about it...

come on Ivan!:fiery:

hold now!

lol :haha:


Well actually it was because he completely stuffed up the score for C.G's match at the end.

horna held :o

Lapentti won....the ginepri/horna game is over - Horna is serving at 1-3

guga broken :sad:

Can't say I'm surprised - I'm telling you, I saw their first-round match at Wimbledon and van Lottum played a blinding first set, he was outhitting Kuerten from the baseline with some incredible winners before having to retire with a comfortable lead. Considering that this is Kuerten's worst GS, I wouldn't be surprised if the Dutchman comes through...

guga broken :sad:


Do you think Guga will break his second round curse?

Soderling vs Schuettler 4-6, 2-3*

go Robin :)
and go Tompa :D :) 4-4

putting Shittler on RLA :o
and putting Guccione vs Jones on MCA, its like Delgado vs Parmar on Court 2 at Wimby :rolleyes:

Well actually it was because he completely stuffed up the score for C.G's match at the end.
oh, on brit eurosport the guy said something like "the swedish contigent is really getting into it", soderling lost the point, then the commentator said (embarrassed) "not that time..."

Guga always has probs in OZ,thats why he plays in NZL.

Igor, come on close it out in 3 :)

ivan leads 7-6(2) 6-4 2-2*

BTW, I'm sure it's not top of anyone's to see list, but Patience had a major third set choke against Andreev, he led 5-3 and serving for it, got broken back and then squandered 15-40 on Andreev's serve in the next game.

eggy, you still alive? no stroke yet?

go Robin :)
and go Tompa :D :) 4-4

putting Shittler on RLA :o
and putting Guccione vs Jones on MCA, its like Delgado vs Parmar on Court 2 at Wimby :rolleyes:

What's that, TBE - last year's finalist plus two home players, one of whom just had an eyecatching win in a warm-up tournament, on a show court?! Will wonders ever cease? :p

ivan wasted bp :fiery:
