I did not expect this guy to go this deep into the Australian Open. I am not quite familiar as to who he is. His name is Ricardas Berankis, currently ranked #95, yet he reaches the 3rd round of this Grand Slam. He won his first round match against Matinko Matosevic of Australia 64 62 75. Then he went straight to the third round as his second round opponent, David Nalbandian, retired 61 60 20. In the third round, he will face David Ferrer of Spain, currently ranked #7.
