(January 20, 2012) “No, it's very disappointing. That's not a good effort from the Americans this tournament. And, you know, I knew going in today I was the last one left and I wanted to keep on going, but just didn't happen.” – John Isner, on the fact that no Americans have made the Australian Open’s 4th round for the first time since the Open Era Began.

“Bernard is a really cool guy, you know. He's, you know, very funny, so I think we're gonna have fun on the court. I hope he doesn't yell at me because I'm making so many mistakes and he's so solid out there.” – Jelena Jankovic, on her mixed doubles partner, Bernard Tomic.

“Wozza looked very solid today. It’s hard to say the No.1 is flying under the radar but nobody's talking that she has any chance to win here.” – Brad Gilbert, tweeting on Caroline Wozniacki’s impressive 3rd round win over Monica Niculescu.

“He won the match point.” – Ivo Karlovic, on what made the difference in his straight set loss vs. Roger Federer.

Marcos Baghdatis is my new hero! Finally some emotion out there!” – Jimmy Connors, tweeting his praise for Marcos Baghdatis’ racquet-breaking tirade.

“I did try to get out of the press conference in my last match because I didn't play. They still said I have to come to press because it's a scheduled match. I was like, a scheduled match? If the guy would have pulled out yesterday, the day before, I wouldn't have had to come.” – Roger Federer, admitting that he isn’t always thrilled about mandatory press requirements.

“U watching Dolgo v Tomic and saying tennis players all play same style these days??” – Patrick McEnroe, tweeting his excitement about the refreshingly creative tennis that Bernard Tomic and Alexandr Dolgopolov displayed on Rod Laver last night.

“But, you know, he did me a big favor in playing with me, and it was a great moment to play with him.” – Peter Luczak, who announced his retirement after the match, on how thankful he was to play his last doubles match alongside his good friend Lleyton Hewitt.

“Of course I hear it. I mean, I'm not deaf.” – Victoria Azarenka,
on whether or not she was bothered by the crowd mimicking her shrieking during her second round match with Casey Dellacqua.
