Milos Raonic Australian Open 2013 Schedule Update: Tuesday Morning on Show Court 3 (Monday night in Canada\/US time zones) versus Jan Hajek<\/h3>\n

New Update 10:30 AM Eastern: <\/span>TSN is reporting they will air the Raonic \/ Hajek match on TSN2, unfortunately not streaming online on TSN.ca \"bonus court\" coverage.\u00a0 They are estimating start time at 8:30 PM tonight as well.\u00a0 Go Milos!\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Milos Raonic (CAN) will play Jan Hajek (CZE) in the second match on Show Court 3 on Tuesday, January 15th. He's up after the women's singles matchup between Kuznetsova and Dominiguez Lino. The women's match will start at 11AM Melbourne time (7 PM Eastern here in Canada on Monday, 14 Jan). Judging by how quickly these matches can be, we'll probably see Milos on the courts by 12:30 PM local time in Melbourne.<\/p>\n

TSN will most likely be showing their usual Rod Laver Arena coverage (with the annoying ESPN-style commentatots) so don't expect it to be on TV. It will most likely be on TSN.ca bonus court coverage around 8;30 PM Eastern (10 PM in Newfoundland). If not, you will be able to find it streaming somewhere online (on australianopen.com if you're in the US or if your computer can pretend to be : ) ).<\/b><\/p>\n

Milos Raonic loses to Fabio Fognini, 6-4, 6-4<\/h3>\n

Milos was broken to give Fognini the 2nd set.\u00a0 Pics below from TennisTV.com (thanks!)<\/p>\n

Milos down a set to Fognini (9:10 PM Eastern)<\/h3>\n

Milos lost the first set to Fognini, 4-6. Tough hold for Raonic in his 1st service game of 2nd set, followed by quick hold by Fognini. He will serve down 2-1, on serve, down a set.<\/p>\n

Milos Raonic draws Jan Hajek in Aussie Open<\/h3>\n

Raonic is in Federer's quarter of the draw and will play Jan Hajek in the opening round of the 2013 Australian Open in Melbourne.\u00a0 Raonic has not faced Czech player before, who is ranked just outside the top 100 going into the tournament and is 29 years of age.\u00a0 Hajek lost in the first round of the Chennai Open in his opening tournament of the year, falling to the hometown favourite, Somdev Devvarman, in straight sets.<\/p>\n

Other notable first round matches include Monfils vs. Dolgopolov and Hewitt vs. Tipsarevic.<\/p>\n

Raonic about to play Fabio Fognini in Kooyong Classic<\/h3>\n

It looks like Baghdatis is about to consolidate an opening game break against DelPo in the Kooyong Classic.\u00a0 Raonic will be up following the match, so I expect he'll step onto the court somewhere around 9:30 PM Eastern Time (11:00PM in Newfoundland), two hours from now.<\/p>\n

Fabio Fognini has not yet had the pleasure to face Milos in regular ATP play.\u00a0 The Italian lost his opening round match in Doha earlier this year, falling in a 3-setter to Grega Zemlja of Slovenia.\u00a0 Fognini has yet to play in the Kooyong Classic, he has replaced one of the players who have pulled out of the warm-up event.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
