Bizarre mess up on the Aussie Open
Thanks to the wonders of a slingbox and HSDPA card I am sat here watching the start of the Aussie open. I am witnessing a very bizarre situation on game featuring Anne Keothavong. As the match moved into the third set it appears her opponent has started serving first in the third set when it should be Keothavong to serve. This hands a massive advantage to her opponent which radically alters the shape of the match, especially in the third set. By serving when your opponent should be, you are effectively handed a 'free' break of serve.
The umpire doesn't appear to want to over turn things and so the game continues. I can't see that this is a fair way to continue, so it will be interesting to see what happens at the end of this match. Never seen anything like it before in a major tournament.
