Tennis!

[FLiam]

So Federer won again today, that guy took him to the limit though, it was a great match.

Henman and Rusedski play now, I will miss the Henman match because I will be in bed. And I have a lesson at 9am tomorrow so I will miss Rusedski

Hopefully it is a long match so I can catch the end because I will be back at about 10:20.

Go Greg and Tim!

Is the Roddick/Greg game today? Cant seem to find out whether it is or not and what time it is.

I'm rooting Myskina in the women's tennis. I've loved her ever since I see her game at the Olympics I think it was. I think it was the semi final or final, either way she lost but was outstanding throughout the game and produced one of my favourite tennis match's.

Is Sharapova still in this. Before i went to school a few days ago i flciked through the sports channels and started watching the Sharapova match but i missed the end, i think she won she was already 1 set up and 3-1 in games i think

[Malenko]

Im glad of the outcome so far... most of the results i wanted to see, happened so far.

I'm a little bit disappointed with the quality of the matches though, but it's a fact i haven't seen many, and the best is yet to come.

Sharapova got her place in the third round. (Answering rawiswar)

[FLiam]

Told you Rusedski would lose

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Twenty minutes of my best anti-USA "COME ON GREG" excitement....

Still it was fun while it lasted.

I can't stand Andy Roddick. He winds me up on so many levels.

Did anyone catch that women's match?

Richard Kraijchek's (sp?) sister, I can't remember her name lost to someone, can't remember her either but she is 12th seed. She was pretty good and when the other woman got the point to take it to match point she nearly burst into tears whilst she was playing, but she looked quite good and I think we could see a lot more of her in 2005.

Also, I am sad to see Grosjean out, I like him, he is a good player, shame he got knocked out so early

EDIT:

Michaella Krajicek and Patty Schnyder is who I meant.

COME ON RODDICK!

Didn't see the game but I heard the result which I'm happy with. I did watch the ending to Nadal/Youzhny though and really liked it. One of the best shots in the tourniment was performed right near the end by Nadal too, awesome stuff and at one point Youzhny had match point but Nadal came back a set or something.

[Malenko]

If anyone has the chance of watching the game or a re-run of the Gaudio (ARG) - Hrbaty (SVK) game, make sure you watch it. i have to go to bed now cause i have an exam tomorow and won't get to watch it till the end. but it's quite great so far.

I don't know if the players meen anything to you but so far there's 1-1 in sets with both being decided on the tiebreak.

I watched that nadal game johnny perfect mentioned and it was good too.

But so far this one is the best of the tournament IMO. it even beats the czechs game of the second round.

Nadaaaaaaaaaaaaal!! Muchos love for Rafael .

We all know its going to be Roger Federer, watch his strokes, watch his feet, watch his expressions, and done think Suzuki was that close on him, Federer saves his best tennis until last and he will most likely be playing Roddick, who seems to have been quiet this year.

Shame to see Moya is out, I'm quite big on Spaniards and Argies because I'm a big clay court fan and I'm hoping my Guille can beat JC Ferrero today.

Oh and Henman won't win it, 100% completely and utterly sure. He's passed it now, he's missed his chances and he, like Greg will go out without a Grand Slam to their name. Boy, British tennis really does suck.

Henman sucks

[IAceI]

That'll be because there is different sports in Portugal, mainly falling over and crying like a girl while having hair like spaghetti, and that's why there are less good Portugese tennis players.

Henman crashes out 4, 2 and 2, haha, no surprise and shows that I was right that he is passed it.

And my Guille won, dismantled a former number one, 3, 2 and 1 - how awesome

I dont think Henman will go any higher than his best rank of number 4, he will stay around for a while in the top 10 still but wont reach higher than 4

[IAceI]

I have a feeling Greg will never beat his highest, 4th, ever again either. ¬_¬

Coria, on the other hand, is 22 i think and has a career high of 3 and will only get better.

Coria will be the first person to beat Federer this year, and he will do it on clay. Quote me on that.

[lazy_arse]

Gregs definitely past it. It was great when he was at the height of his career and in the US Open fianl. Apart from Wimbledon, I can't really see him getting past he second or third round at a grand slam.

[IAceI]

Greg has actually been playing great tennis as of late, late last year he did at least, this year too, beating Jonas Bjorkman is a tough task and he'd much rather fall to Federer than Davydenko. Davydenko actually beat him last year in the finals of a cup thats name escapes my mind.

[lazy_arse]

Seems that everybody underestimated Davydenko including Henman himself.

[IAceI]

Fwahahahaha.

51 Aces. 4 Sets AND He Lost.

Joachim should catch a break.

Upcoming 4 Matches:

P. Kohlschreiber(GER) - A. Roddick(USA) - Roddick unfortunately.

N. Davydenko(RUS) - G. Canas(ARG) - Canas.

R. Nadal(ESP) - L. Hewitt(AUS) - Hewitt

G. Coria(ARG) - D. Nalbandian(ARG) - GUILLE! GUILLE! GUILLE!
