lishesquexDamnit! I was going to buy tickets to Amelie Mauresmo's third round match against Victoria Azarenka at Rod Laver Arena tomorrow but they're sold out.
:(
:( :( :(
I've been "watching" her matches online, using the live score update thingy since it hasn't been broadcast on TV, but it's obviously not the same as actually being able to you know, see the players and the ball and stuff. Even then watching her matches has been stressful. She's so goddamn unpredictable. I hope they show the Rod Laver match on TV tomorrow. *will be highly annoyed if they show some nameless Australian instead*
Anyway, her opponent: Victoria Azarenka, seeded 13th in women's singles. Only 19 years old. Has only ever reached Round 3 in the Australian Open. Amelie, with more than 10 years experience and an Australian Open under her belt should be able to wipe the floor with her, right? ...Right?
Then again, Amelie lost to Casey Dellacqua in like Round 2 last year, and she was ranked 178th or something. Gah.
*worries*
Anyway, here's a picture of Amelie looking very buff:
