We're down to the quarterfinals of the Australian Open.

If you weren't paying attention over the weekend, you missed a ton of action.

A 19-year-old Aussie with a model girlfriend got pasted by Roger Federer, Serena Williams got upset by a total unknown, and the Big Four on the men's side skated through with ease.

The big story of the weekend was Bernie Tomic — the 19-year-old Australian sensation who faced Roger Federer in the Final 16

But Roger Federer and his death stare destroyed Tomic in straight sets. So much for Tomic-mania
