    I agree.
    He's only 18, wait 2 more years, even more exciting.
    Still growing / filling out.
    I hope the media can start pronouncing his surname correctly.

    He is still a boy... He will probably grow more and fill out more... SOme of his tennis last night was astonishing... While I don't think he will beat Novak, I hope he gives him a good run, and can hold his own....

    And how do you say his name I say it as it is spelt...

    And I'm catching Bernie fever....

    pretty sure it would be "tommitch".
    Yeh I've seen Pearl Jam, too. But I can't remember the dates.

    I agree, saw her on the news this morning and it was a lovely way to start the day, she was my sunny side up on toast.

    Aussie accent To-mitch

    or in his native accent Taw-mitch.

    The Western Australian Croats all have the ch on the end of their surnames, us on the eastern side of Australia keep it the way it is. Lucky I don't have this problem with my surname.

    That is how I thought it was pronounced.
    {if (work != 0) {
    work = work + 1;
    sleep = sleep - work * 10;}
    else if (work >= 0) {
    reality.equals(false);
    work = work +1;
    }system("pause");
    return 0;}

    I'd sure like to see how either would've coped before this silly technology with rackets took over and turned the game from being about finesse to being so dominated by power.

    The utter lack of a serve-volleyer says it all.
    115 bucks for half a haircut by a novice? I want my money back!

    i dunno ... there are a lot more rallies now so i'm not too sure it's a power game totally ... don't get me wrong ... i'm an old school / edberg serve and volleyer and wish more would play that game ... there was a while when it was power and not many rallies ... but watching the majors the last few years ... some quality tennis ...
