The Tennis Thread

[MulletProof]

does anyone feel like 'the tennis thread' or something like that would be a more appropriate title instead of 'favorite tennis player'?, I can change it if you want!.

I'm sorry for being random, I've just been observing and thinking about it for a few days.

^it's okay by me mullet.

 

[maxlinden]

fine by me MulletProof, sounds much more suitable since we've been ranting on and on about all other elements of tennis

^ Oh God, number 3 . Well everyone has their ups & downs. And ditto, I can't stand Nadal
Djokovic is my only hope now

Yeah, it's so sad. Djokovic is my number one too, but I'd rather have Nadal not get into the final at all cause he's going to be extra hard to beat in a championship match.

^hahahah....I know

 

[Scott]

congratulations to tomas! it's about time he was in a major final.

once in a blue moon serena really surprises me. since justine's going to be out for a few months she won't be able to participate in the exhibition in brussels next week with kim so serena has said she would do it.

they're trying to break the attendance record set by the battles of the sexes match between BJK and bobby riggs. and for such a small country to achieve that,would be impressive.

Murray was good but Rafa was better when it mattered, I'm thrilled for him! Going to be an interesting final on sunday for sure but just now, really happy that Rafa was strong & played well

 

[make_me_whole]

im glad that rafa won..i always think that murray was quite cocky and overated..

 

[AnaBGD]

I'm happy for Rafa too!
I don't know what to expect from the final, Tomas is in amazing form and I would love it if he could go all the way, but I'd also love Rafa to get it again, ugh, I just hope for a good match.

Yay, for title change! It was always funny when someone just randomly writes one name in here (as response to "Who's your fav player" question)

Bad day for the Brits today. Oli Golding and Laura Robson out in junior semis. And Murray this afternoon.

Andy played very well apart from his first serve failing him in the latter stages. And then it came down to key points. Murray had actually won more points than Rafa at the start of the third set. I'm not a great fan of Murray but with Roger out I was supporting him just because he's a Brit. He looked absolutely gutted afterwards. Rafa is too good right now.

I know! Thanks MulletProof.

The result of the Rafa-Murray game today was disappointing. I really wanted Murray to win. I think he played well. OK, I'll admit it: Nadal played better overall. But I still wanted Murray to win! I was supporting Federer and Murray. Now that Federer is out (sob), I was keeping my fingers crossed for a win from Andy today. No such luck, alas...

Becks was there.

By the way is Rafa losing hair? I keep thinking I saw his middle section widening.

i wanted Serbia - Great Britain finale!!!!
blaaaaah.....
but the Netherlands did win in football... i guess you cannot have everything...

 

[Scott]

what a fantastic tournament vera zvonareva is having! in addition to being in the singles final vera,with elena vesnina,is also in the doubles final!

i can only think of one player who's done that more recently and that's serena williams. other than her,i dunno,was martina hingis the last player to make that feat?

 

[NakedIfIWantTo]

singles and doubles final on the same day though! I wonder if Vera can stay strong.

i know..i was watching the match on tv then i got a text tellin me he won in 3 straight sets...i watched to rest of the match with the biggest smirk

i felt really bad for Murray i really like him has a tennis player and this seemed to me he chance to make some history but he was dealt an even greater player

now its a Rafa Vs Berdych Final!!!!

i always used to ask myself that question but no, when he sweats his hair gets wet and then

^oh oh.

Murray isn't good dealing with pressure. People almost have to turn away from him if he's to win.
