Men's First Round Must See: David Nalbandian vs. Lleyton Hewitt
Well, these were two of men's tennis biggest superstars a few years back, and both are now winding down their careers, and because of their current rankings, Nalbandian at #21 and Hewitt at #54, they have been picked to meet at the first round of this year's Australian Open. On paper, a definite slugfest for both experienced players! Their head-to-head is 3-2 in favor of Hewitt, but with Nalbandian winning the last two encounters. Hewitt has the whole of Australia to back him up, while Nalbandian's run to the finals in Sydney last week should give him the confidence that he needs. This is going a real cracker of a game and definitely the match I am awaiting to see in the men's first round.
