Day 9 at the Aussie Results

Day 9 results,

Fed def Del Potro in straights - Federer played out of his mind and beat Del Potro easily.  It was close at times, and if Delpo had stepped up at times it could've been much closet, but at times Federer looked flawless.  He hit tons of winners, and it took Delpo a few winners in a row to get a point.  I was not surprised by this result, the price on Delpo was too good for a guy who has the skills to beat Fed in a Slam.

Nadal def Berdych in 4 - Berdych came out looking like the better player in this one.  He could've easily been up 2 sets to love instead of 1 and for 1.5 sets he was the better player.  However, Nadal upped his game and came back to win it.  No surprise here, Nadal's performance was exactly what to expect of him and what makes him a champion.  He does not quit until the last point has been played.
