Sania and Somdev crashed out of Australian Open 2011, but only after a tough fight

Both Sania and Somdev last their Australian Open first round matches to Justin Henin and Tommy Robredo respectively after a very good fight, but have proven that they are competent enough to beat the biggies in tennis.

Sania has won her first set with 7-5 against former world no.1 Justin Henin and almost threatened to win the match, before loosing second set to Henin with 3-6.When it has come to the decider, Henin just showed why she is a champion and won it easily with 6-1, as sania was tired and slow. But, The way sania played the match shows that she is back to her form, which brought her to world no.27 ranking.

Somdev also gave a good competition to tommy robredo by taking the first set to tie-breaker. But, he lost it there and the remaning sets with 6-3 and 6-4. Even though he lost the match, he has played really well and proved to be the future star of indian tennis.

it was like asking kenya to win against India in first round of cricket world cup and india just winning through a couple of runs, doesn't kenya will be really happy abt it.

So, let us wait for the doubles matches, to see paes, bhupathi and sania in action again.I hope they will have a better draw this time.
