After winning particularly challenging games at the Legg Mason online Betting Classic on Wednesday evening, Lleyton Hewitt pumped his fist with vigor and released an adrenaline-driven shriek toward a corner of the grandstand filled with his supporters. Those fans responded with an Australian chant for one of the finest Australians in the history of tennis:
"Aussie, Aussie, Aussie! Oi! Oi! Oi!"
The homage came during a 6-3, 2-6, 6-2 second-round win over Israel's Dudi Sela, but it is only heard at the Legg Mason when Hewitt is playing. He is the lone Australian in this year's field. Hewitt advanced to play Juan Martín del Potro, whom he upset in the second round at Wimbledon earlier this summer. Hewitt was the only Australian in the 128-man field in that tournament, too.

Hewitt came close to reaching the semifinals at Wimbledon before falling to Andy Roddick. His entire purpose this week in Washington is to build for the U.S. Open.
