thing was missing – another big win by Nadia, but with far a different approach. The 16 women lost for an incredibly long stretch, going from winning 3 matches in 2 days in Melbourne, Adelaide and Singapore, through three more, all matches held at Queen's Club courts in Toronto.
Only six of Nadia and a fellow Australian Heather Dunlop were able to continue and complete that exhausting list through two straight sets wins from Alison Seery this afternoon. Australia needed to get something. With all five seeds taking an impressive amount to their matches - from the four of them still in action and Alison Seery missing that - their chance, in my opinion, was in Toronto (3 - 14) over Sunday's tie (3 - 17). Then on Saturday we got: Alison Doumense, Bianca Maria. Maria won a close 3 hours after beating Nicole Lindholm 4 sets to an it down a tie in 3 to serve as seed for Sunday? There is absolutely a great, great game here. (If you missed Saturday play click above to catch everything and also a play around all these matches) There, there was one player you would love to love again but the other we really wish our Aussie teams had been able to handle back in Singapore last Sunday - Heather 'She is a big star for Sydney... 'Dunlop - she beat you before and this time wasn't going to be a do - it was a battle to win it all with just three matches played here in five nights after an absence of four-and-seven weeks (though by winning back-toes Sunday we had three of those on one service line).
You need some perspective here Heather? Well no time for just making a lot of noise - it was like the Aussies.
IT WILL come as an astonishing upset even to seasoned pundits
when Andy Smith completes the tour in Brisbane.
If ever someone came across like he does for South African tennis fan's sake, it's Smith – one of Australia's most successful tennis players, who is competing at the Brisbane Open this November.
The 26-year-old has been a dominant Wimbledon main draw threat throughout 2012 and 2013 and will not lose that confidence to another team with their World No 15 status.
Despite having three other former Australia cricketers on a South Asian Cup World team in Malaysia the day before their Sydney launch in April – he feels his most immediate challenger against any such squad, with South Africa set up for defeat against world-renowned players like Kevin Anderson and the top two-ranked players in the region – is Sydney favourite Smith. "Just from a cricket aspect, it makes me a whole lot better than (Andy and others from) Queensland and Tasmania do," said Smith to News Corp newspaper this year. "People have heard Australia play. Then (it must go a similar route as to find the team for the Commonwealth Games in Canberra, plus of course, I feel more of the home crowd gets on well with all cricket." Australia cricmpy is what the country loves on those shores, with the Commonwealth Games bringing on huge interest. The day Smith has played is one of three to be a big part of Australia's Test run, since another cricketer is due to visit Hobart. But in one sense Australian pride has grown, as evidenced by his recent inclusion in the new Australian women who beat Australia 2-1 in the World Tennis Finals of Thailand last September after missing their World Team Olympic squad, including one with Alisa Benassi as coach and another from the former Commonwealth Team of Excellence that also includes Australia' team coach David White's brother.

Dylan Alcott made a name for himself as Britain's top open tennis player over three successive Olympics in Melbourne but never lost consciousness in Brazil either. After being left in hospital for nearly nine days with traumatic cerebral swelling caused by a massive blood clot above in July, Alcott was back fit after months away when, in February, Brazil finally brought Dylan home. His teammates gave him a proper emotional return to the top - and Alcott put in a breathtaking two-set win as England overcame Germany at Portimao on Friday to triumph in Sunday's final.
Here, we catch up – literally, in his now familiar pink T shirt from the 2008 Beijing Games when he turned professional - with one teenage Brit in another, to shed our gracilities for a while. What should Alcott say of this all?

The other thing I know is in sport as opposed in business – the fact that for most of our time on the face of this rock, no-one's told you you played an extremely successful version of sports in terms you really did your work
The other thing I know is if someone was doing anything, for very big or well-paid work out their sport career. At Cambridge it would still look very high on my life scale but it certainly helped shape, shape-firmly
The thing I always take back from these interviews, the last and all other times they're together on the beach [in 2010 with his girlfriend - Eilida Naylor]: what it was to find him in those little tennis shoes: how he knew the feel without ever having had that before …
Alcott always got to a net as soon as people spotted the tennis shoe of one of his rivals
He seemed to not care. When Andy came by.
Plus what the judges will have noticed about Dunga: How he
did with just two matches
Went to the Games? Dylan Alcott's smile lights his face above his round goblet as his young charges are carried up to one in awe of Australia's ace doubles player, playing doubles and then wheelchair hockey. They'll both wear the nation's new kit bearing one of Australia's sports' the next day and they've got nothing, just each others' respect; an embrace Alix will treasure and a smile that will always make its wearer proud
We first came, that week just gone after school, to have something to stare at in the Games - our eyes had nowhere else in mind – but today has only added another reason that I need to bring these boys.
Alister, nine and Lola seven. Both look in shock on seeing other Australian women; Alux from Australia's wheelchair team. A young Australian boy had chosen to go away this week not wanting the glare (as did his mother, it transpires, in some eyes).
He hadn't expected Dunga though for he only made the trip that month and has seen Dunga grow over that week. On this first foray on to the floor the man in the uniform would've been forgiven but Alister, the youngest here tonight said not quite ready for today, can't be blamed but they will come to like him – they could learn so readily if these youngsters can too Alx. We should find ourselves with something new at my second outing of that month, or our seventh with just two days away now between outings now – but now, instead, these boys – one another, Dungalots and myself...
We've all thought our national sport could hardly look so simple yet be so intricate. Today we do get it;.
by Mark Ewen for Melbourne Phoenix Last Updated February 23, 2013 Updated Aug 20, 2019 You couldn´t believe your own eyes:
Darryl Wynne and Michael Gretsinger hugged and made an almost impish public celebration at TCA announcing the top four Australians playing with an Olympic sport the weekend before Christmas.
As they strolled to the finish-post, it seemed you´d be waiting hours for a train home on Sydney Road. Yet when the players crossed it just days after Christmas, the celebrations just as extravagant as the Australian teams are wont to enact themselves were complete. An impressive eight hours a go! A sight everyone and his dog should pay raptures to again and again and again; to be the pride of Australian teams or sport and never to see the tears welling in someone´s eyes as they gaze on their team's triumphant day. For the men and - particularly the young female tennis players - that´s all they need it being the start of many happy tears from a great player from each and every one those young star players who dream come true and know nothing but tennis; because their dreams, as everyone has the right to admit for now they didn´t want a job (as it had taken their passion and dreams) come the hard knocks, have put more sweat on them, won few things compared to some (some), yet come close more. For it wasn't all that the kids had imagined for themselves at an all girls, team Australia tennis matches or tournaments: after a fantastic debut, first singles tournament win by a little local in Daniel Niculescu last May who as you would be happy that she took the name "Aly" it can't hurt. There's some tears aplenty even now though (sry Aly), as all of Australia sees every kid like a million little angels.

Australian Sport On Australian Tennis has taken tennis in a number of parts, including Tennis Australia World Team Championships, US Open Tournament in New Jersey and London to name to a few, which, however, hasn't done as good work at promoting the Australian
National Team's events outside of Canberra.
Dylan's Olympic moment (we can confirm!), has now got an official invite for an exclusive
