I went to the
Australian Tennis Open in Melbourne and I saw Maria Sharapova, Rafael Nadal & Kim Clijsters play and win today in sweltering 40 deg C heat. Fortunately, the Rod Laver Arena & another Arena have roofs that can be shut and the RLA was comfortable with AC.
The Sharapova match was great and she had to fight to win 8-6 in the third set against Camille Pin.
Rafael Nadal had a straightforward win against Robert Kendrick, who took him to 5 sets at Wimbledon 2006.
Kim Clijsters had a walkover against Vasilisa Bardina leaving her with 2 ducks.
