Yesterday's results Canas did it again!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is absolutely crazy! ;D And Maria looked like a beginner on court. The rest wasn't surprising and Lopez finally got what he deserved Anna Chakvetadze (RUS) [9] def. Na Li (CHN) [15] 4-6,7-5,6-2 Serena Williams (USA) [13] def.

Jarkko Nieminen (FIN) [20] 7-6(4),6-4 Novak Djokovic (SRB) [10] def. Feliciano Lopez (ESP) Q 6-0,6-3 Canas Stuns Federer for Second Time in 2 Weeks Tough Argentine Guillermo Canas became just the second player to defeat Roger Federer more than once during his unbroken 165-week reign as ATP World No. 1 after edging the Swiss 7-6(2), 2-6, 7-6(5) in an epic battle in the fourth round of the Sony Ericsson Open Tuesday. And Canas has achieved the rare feat in just over two weeks, having first beaten Federer in the second round of the Pacific Life Open on March 11. Federer lost just two matches on hard courts all of last year. Canas, who had to win two qualifying matches to make the main draw, continued his stunning comeback following a 15-month doping suspension. Canas was ranked No. 514 when he returned to the ATP circuit in September last year but has cut that to No. 55 and will break into the Top 50 by reaching the Miami quarterfinals. The first set was a battle between Federer's powerful shot making (18 winners to seven) and Canas's dogged determination and baseline retrieving, which often lured the top seed into error as he pressed for too much. Federer made 19 unforced errors to Canas's 10 in the first set and also made a number of uncharacteristic blunders at the net and missed overheads. But Federer lifted a gear in the second set and his sublime shot making was on full display as he ran away with the set 6-2. Canas looked a beaten man early in the third set. Federer broke in the first game of the third set and soon after held two break points for a 3-0 lead as Canas's legs lacked their early spark. But the Argentine clung to life, eventually clawing back the break of serve to force a tie-break. The decisive moment in the tie-break came when Federer served at 4/5 to the ad court. Having stretched Canas wide to the backhand, Federer took a swinging forehand volley at a high, mid-court floater, dumping it into the middle of the net to hand the Argentine two match points. Federer saved the first but then took a swing and a miss at a Canas first serve down the middle. Federer later said of the missed swinging volley: "You're not going to take it on the overhead, but I didn't want to let it bounce, so the obvious choice was to forehand drive. It's a tough shot to hit. I guess at 15-0 and 1-0 in the first set, that's not a problem. But it was tough. It was getting into the night. It was day in the beginning and night in the end, and it kind of made it a bit tricky and I messed it up." Another telling factor was break point conversions. Federer earned 16 break point chances but converted just four. Canas earned only five break point opportunities but converted three times. Federer now sets his sights on the tough European clay court season as he attempts to complete his set of Grand Slam trophies at Roland Garros. "I'm going to play Monte Carlo, Rome, Hamburg, French Open, Halle, Wimbledon, and that's all big tournaments in Europe. It's going to make it hard. So I need a break here after this, and then I'm going to start practicing and get to Monaco early and hopefully play well." Canas is enjoying a career-best 15-3 start to the year, which includes his run to the Costa do Sauipe title in Brazil last month (d. Ferrero).

I’m suprised Federer lost again to Canas. Yesterday I saw the match between Maria Sharapova and Serena Williams. Sharapova did not play very well, lots of double faults and Williams played just good.

Two tough oponents that have beaten them before, you start to have doubts and you're more likely to push too much and make mistakes, then the doubt settles and it's a vicious circle.

Stayed up last night to watch the Federer v Canas match live. Federer made a lot (by his standards) of unforced errors. Hard to believe in his case that the element of doubt had set in from the previous defeat by Canas, but it definitely was the case. It showed. He was 3-0 up in the third set! Some of the shots Maestro played were unbelievable (and I don't mean that in the good sense. I could have played them! And would have). He IS human after all. ;D (Marat take note. That's part of being human. Frailty! You learn from it ... and move on). Next tournament please. New tournament, new start. Roger will move on too. He ain't gonna lose sleep over it. Too many records for the boy to break! Went to watch SKY tonight to check on my Andy (Murray). Missed it live - highlights at 11pm. Bleary eyed at work again then tomorrow. No idea what the score was. PS Going to go down now to check the score for Scotland in the football. Something is going on here. Perhaps terrestrial influence? We're doing too well in too many sports at the moment ... ;D Italy have probably hammered us 4-0 by now ... ;D
