THE QUEST

As much a fan of Roger as I am, I doubt he’ll win the Aus this year. He dominated in the Bjorkman match, but there are pieces missing from the puzzle. As much as I admire Jonas, he should not have been able to break Roger’s serve twice. Federer was trying to put more power behind his serve, but against Jonas 2 breaks are too many. Phau, likewise broke his serve 3 times. Another omen is the lack of consistency and confidence in his down-the-line backhand – too many misses in a relatively stressless match. He’s made his quest for another Slam title a very difficult task with his lack of tournament play . Hope I’m wrong. Go, Roger!
