2010 Wimbledon coming up soon, so a Tennis thread is a must.
Here is the
men's singles draw
you can also vote on your all-times favourite tennis player. Poll is multiple choice.
pppffttt a tennis thread?!?!?!? wtf.
I thought we came here to discuss basketball
who follows tennis anyway?!?!
Ah, I do.
I love Wimbledon, i just hope the weather will love it too...
I usually watch only the Israeli players and grand slam finals, so I'm with Sela and Pe'er in this tournament, as usualy
Sela is in a good shape, after this last tournament he had (dunno what it's called, something on grass
) he even beat Roddick.. I hope he can get where he got last year, 1/16 round.
He got a cruel draw though, Youzhny in the first round (about a year after he met youzhny in Davis cup quarter finals, it ended great back then
)

Queens?
Try watching Federer's games! Those can be very good!
Yes queens thank you
ill make sure to give it a shot
Federer wins in tie break at 1st round...
Peer-Ivanovic 6-3 6-4
I think she failed in 2nd round last year so she wont lose any points (if i figured this point system right
) so that's nice already.. from now on every round is bonus
Ana Ivanovic has a big problem...
Novak Djokovic had trouble in the first round but he is ok now...
Jelena Jankovic plays great tennis! Keep up, she will, i hope
What's wrong with ivanovic? Wasn't she like top 5 or something? How did she drop that bad? Injury? I mean she was one of the best (and one of the hottest
) but now she couldn't risk Peer in peer's serv games.. I think she didn't break even once and in half of them she didn't even win a point :/
Fed won't make the final.You heard it here first.Watch him go out to Lopez in the 4rth round.
Final will be Soderling/Roddick vs Murray with the "Brit" winning his first major in front of her Majesty.
Sela lost
he's gonna lose many points... He was close to make a comeback, lost the first 2 sets, won the third and got to tie break in the 4th but he lost it :/
anybody watching Mahut-Isner? it's 55-55 in the 5th set
unbelieveable

9 hrs 58 mins.
I came back home after playing basketball at the park and suddenly saw in sport 5 "the longest game in tennis history, come watch live" and it was 53-52.. they both barely could stand
they stopped at 59-59.. I wonder if they could get off the bed this morning
they are supposed to continue it today..
btw, Aces: Isner 98 Mahut 95 holy shit

Oh lol sorry
I'm not such a big fan of tennis.. but hey, I knew she was somewhere in the top
so what made her fall that low?
She wanted to play tennis and to have a model carer. She was starting to pay much more attention on her beauty and her pictures and dresses and god knows what, instead of playing tennis. But, hey, it's her choice and i respect it completely. i just don't like when I c her waning all over again that she will come back and be the first again, it's only a meter of time. THEN TAKE RACKET AND PLAY TENNIS NOT PHOTO MODELING!
You know, you could add some pictures to this post
Isner won after 70-68 in the last set, poor Mahut.. can't he get a special place in the next round or something? I feel bad for him
