It Gets Late Early Down Under

It's 3:48 in the am and I'm preparing to entertain the shit out of you all weekend long, but I'd be remiss if I didn't alert all those awake to the goings on in Melbourne. Roger Federer is down a set to Serbian Janko Tipsarević who came into the night paying out at 180/1 to win the third round match. Of course Federer has just broken and held in succession to take a lead in the fourth set. It's looking as if we're headed for a climactic fifth set and ESPN2 will be broadcasting sans commercials (because nobody's watching!). Bud Collins is awake so you should be too. Follow after the jump for some visual incentive in the form of Tipsarević's countrywoman Ana Ivanovic who won earlier tonight over Katerina Srebotnik. Enjoy... (image via Getty)

That's for you, Rovell.
