Uta made it to Tuesday's matches by 1:00 pm, but I didn't arrive until 6:00.
After I appeared on site, we watched a five set battle between unseeded Russian-born American, Alex Bogomolov, and 9th seed, Fernando Gonzalez, from Chile. In a match featuring jubilant Chilean fans and out-and-out trash-talking between the competitors (which was awesome), Alex managed to hold on to victory - his first Round 1 victory in a Grand Slam.
We subsequently watched as Emma Laine (Finland) took apart Spain's Nuria Llagostera, followed by a grumpy Kenneth Carlsen (Denmark) against Fernando Verdasco (Spain).
We finished off the night watching the first set of Juan Carlos Ferrero(Spain) against Tomas Zib (Czech). Ferrero won that set and went on to take the next two 6-0, 6-0. I guess we didn't miss much. . .
