    Doug's 2012 Australian Open Review

    Mens Singles:  I didn't think Rafa and Djokovic could outdo their US Open final performance from last September.   But they did......do you think?!!!  They played the longest grand slam final in history!  But not only that.  Each shot they hit was as powerful as any shot in tennis history.   They ran down more balls than anyone in tennis history.  Yes, Roger Federer could be called the best ball-striker ever, perhaps the most complete player ever.  But these two have taken it to another level.  They are both playing at a higher level than Roger ever did.  I hope they both can stay healthy and motivated.  If they do, we will have the chance to enjoy these type of performances many times over.  With Rafa, it's always going to be about his health.  He is perhaps the most motivated tennis professional ever.  Unfortunately, that same motivation may be his achilles heel.  He will continue to work his body past its limits to catch Novak.  You worry whether his body won't break down in his quest.  With Djokovic, he appears to have a body type that does not breakdown as easily.  He is one of the most physically flexible players on the tour.  However, he is charming, and appears to have many interests, taking on many things that being a famous athlete has to offer.  In the past year his motivation has been off the charts.  I'm not sure if he can maintain the same high level of desire.  We know if his hard work and ambition drops off just a percentage point, Rafa will be there to take his trophies.  Is this just a two-horse race?  Hmmm,  Andy Murray would say not.  His 7-5 in the 5th set loss to Djokovic seems to say that he has closed the gap with the big two.  His recent partnership with multi-grand slam winner Ivan Lendl appears to be a positive change.  Hopefully, Andy will keep Lendl around.  I think Lendl's toughness will rub off on him, and that may be all the change he needs to challenge Nadal and Djokovic.  Can Murray win a grand slam this year?   I think he can.   Can the old war horse, Federer, win another grand slam?  Only with some good fortune.  It will take Nadal and Djokovic losing in a freak early round upset, or injuries taking them out of the tournament.  Will Federer win a grand slam this year?   The percentages say no.  The final analysis is in regard to American men's tennis.  Not a pretty picture right now, is it?  Mardy Fish looks like his late career run may be over.  I'm afraid that the talent gap between Andy Roddick and the other top players is more than a 140 mph serve can overcome.  US junior national champion young Jack Sock is currently ranked 316 in the world and is consistently doing well on the challenger circuit.  Sock is the best young hope for US men's tennis.  Look for him to make a splash as the year progresses.

    Ladies Singles: Is it time to stop assuming that Serena Williams will win any tournament that she enters?  She has  me the last two grand slams.  Can I learn to enjoy watching a ladies tennis match where both of them are playing the exact same way hitting every ball as hard as they can and squealing as loud as they can when they hit it?  I am talking about the Australian Open final, Viktoria Azarenka vs. Maria Sharapova.  I may have watched 2 or 3 points of this final vs. watching 5 hours of the mens final.  Does this make me a sexist tennis fan?  I don't think so.  I loved the Henin vs. Williams' sisters matchup, Clisters vs. Henin, ahh... I digress toward Justine Henin once again.   Is there anyway we can get a variety of styles to be played in the womens game to make it more interesting?  Yes, I know you can make the same argument for the mens game as well.  However, the shotmaking and athleticism by the top men's players is so "off the charts"  that is incredibly entertaining in spite of similar styles.  And the men's game still has Federer, who I believe plays his best tennis when he mixes up his great variety of skills. Ah by the way, for those interested, Azarenka beat Sharapova, 6-3, 6-0 to win her first grand slam and take over #1 in the world.  Is there a can't miss American player on the horizon?  No sightings for the near future.


    Former tennis student Devon Cavanaugh stopped by recently to hit with CIT president, Doug Kegerreis.  Devon is currently playing Division I college tennis at UNC Asheville.  UNC Asheville participates in the Big South Conference.
