Go Lleyton!

Anyone staying up tonight to watch Lleyton Hewitt play Andy Roddick in the quarter finals at Wimbledon?

I am.

I know he polarises people...but I admire his spirit and never-say-die attitude, and it's great to see him fit and back in form.

And hey...whatever you think of him as a person...he's an Aussie.

C'monnnnnnnnnnnnn!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree Matt - give him some support everyone!

He's maturing a little, and isn't so "full-of-me brash" any more. I think that staying down the table for a while has tempered him somewhat. I think he's a better player in some respects for it.

Just turn your cap around will ya?!!

I don't care either way, as long as whoever wins, stops Federer in his tracks.

Not a big Hewitt fan, but even less a Roddick fan, don't like him at all infact, so...
Go Hewitt!!

However, if it comes down to Hewitt v Federer, I'll be wearing red+white... sorry Hewitt.

Roddick vs Hewitt.

Roddick - throws tantrums, destroys raquets, sometimes argues with umpire.

Hewitt - relentless "in your face" attitude.

I am going to have to go for Roddick. Hewitt lost me years ago with his "C'mon!!", which I think is an intimidation technique, and some players have even said as such. Sometimes he even "c'mons" before the point is even won.
