Djokovic too good but he was made to earn his points and to pull a set back after losing the first two and 0-3 in the third, I thought was very impressive.

Yes it was good, unfortunately passion is not enough to get you over the line against the top 4 ATM, Hewitt simply lacks the firepower to seriously compete against these guys anymore.
Cant see any of the top 4 dropping a set in their quarter final matchups.

First player in the tournament to get a set off Djokovic.
Would you would count that as small consolation if you were Hewitt?

Berdych was handed one of the best opportunities to go 2 sets to love up in the second set and just could not close it, when he had Nadal on the ropes. A big choke.

You beauty, just wore him down at the end.
Will need to lift a notch for his next match, Federer has looked unstopable so far, hopefully Rafa can put him away

Yep, poor choice on set point, not sure if Nadal would have come back from 2-0 down

The mad Serb wins the 1st set 6-4 against Ferrer, but may be injured ... is now struggling a tad and limps after each point.

3-3 in the 2nd.
