More on the fan, and their ejections following a clash outside Melbourne Park.
The action started last night at the Australian Open. Many big names on the men's side had a real battle for their first round match, scraping by and living to see another day. The neon green court surface looks pretty wild when you watch the matches. Was anyone at the matches?
Men's champion Federer overcame a wobbly first set before gliding to a 7-5 6-0 6-4 victory over Bjorn Phau as he began his pursuit of a 10th grand slam title.They were joined in the last 64 by former winners Serena Williams and Thomas Johansson, with 2005 champion Marat Safin offering the late-night action.
A tortured and tormented Andy Roddick provided the early drama.
