shame for Alex, thought it was going to be tough as he really just doesn't get on with the conditions at the AO. Ilhan had 11 BP chances against Alex's serve and that's never good. i think before we can say too much we have to see how Ilhan does in the FQR, after all he hammered Polansky the day b4.

From the feed at http://www.lta.org.uk/Articles/Australian-Open---As-it-Happens/Australian-Open---As-it-Happens/14012009---The-girls-are-up/, where there are pics too:

Journeying outside to watch a bit of Boggo in action, I heard a very loud rambunctious noise, rather like a market place in Delhi. Getting louder and louder as I approached the Brit's court, it appeared that the court and the noise were one and the same.

Poor Boggo was getting attacked on every point by what seemed to be the entire Turkish population of Melbourne, and quickly slumped to a 6-4, 6-4 defeat. Deary me.

James Ward meanwhile, taking on Ukrainian Ilya Marchenko, looked to be having much better luck. At 3-3 in the first set, he had several opportunities to break the baby faced backwards cap-wearing European, only to be denied by a couple of terrible line calls. I'm no umpire and even I could see them bounce rather far out.

The calls seemed to rock Wardy's confidence, and from then on, Marchenko stepped up a gear, holding onto the first set 6-3, and getting an early break to take the second set and the match 6-4. Deary me mark 2.

Really disappointing Day 2. Not too suprised by the results - I was expecting them to be honest - but the manner of defeat seems frustrating/disappointing
