David Ferrer defeats Chela 7-5, 6-2, 6-1. After a rocky start to the Australian Open, David Ferrer found his range and quickly dismantled Chela after going down 1-4 in the 1st set. Chela started off extremely strong and the Spanish number 2 had no response. However, Ferrer's fabled indomitable spirit came alive and managed to recover the deficit with some amazing tennis and win the 1st set. Devastated, Chela never recovered and Ferrer easily won the match. However is this match simply an aberration or is it a sign that Ferrer will be a threat to the Australian Open? Ferrer was a semifinalist last year but has faced lots of early scares. At 29, he is known to be one of the hardest working players, constantly trying to keep up his physique. But perhaps his age will start catching with him, or maybe he will fend off the impending doom of his age and make a surprise run here. I predict he won't make the semifinals, but anything can happen.
