Li Na and Victoria Azarenka will meet in the Australian Open final on Saturday. Li Na shocked Sharapova 6-2 6-2, but that's not the real story. Victoria Azarenka is being criticized for her 10-minute medical timeout for being nervous. After the match she answered the question of medical timeout that she was nervous, but in the press conference, she said her back and rib was hurting. It is very sketchy. Almost no one believes that she has a legitimate injury. Stories can't seem to get anything right. Some say she had one injury; others say she had two. This is why the tennis officials should think of changing that rule because many players take advantage of it. They use it to take breaks and to gather themselves. It's not right.
Anyway, stepping away from this controversy. Federer defeated Tsonga yesterday and is into the semifinals. He is scheduled to face Murray. Djokovic, on the other side, has steamrolled through Ferrer and has already booked his spot in the finals. Fortunately he won fairly. The lack of controversy and abundance of great tennis on the men's side is really refreshing in comparison to the WTA.
