Roger looked great! I think he has a good chance against Djoker tomorrow! I have to go check Tennis.com and see how the women are doing. I haven't watched them at all this week.

Good article here if you didn't see it about Roger's winning streak: http://blogs.tennis.com/tennisworld/2012/03/hes-getting-to-be-like-the-guy-whos-still-dancing-with-a-lampshade-on-his-head-and-crying-whoo-hooo-when-everyone-else-is-p.html
