Re: The Official Tennis Thread

Damn, no more tennis tonight. Stuck with watching Ladder 49 instead.
Yeah, I came home at 10:30 and then i'm like "wtf! Where's my tennis?" instead i watched a bit of Ladder 49 and then ended up flicking through the channels.

Re: The Official Tennis Thread

Hmm, I think the men's final will be 5 sets, but Murray to win; he's in very good form and in top physical shape atm.

It's hard to pick the women's final; but I think I'll be going for Henin in 3 sets.

btw, I vote Henri Leconte & Pat Rafter vs. Wayne Arthurs & Pat Cash as the best match so far haha
If Murray plays the way he did against Nadal. There's no way Federer will beat him.
@OP: Hoping Murray's record against Federer goes to 7-4

The captain obvious award should go to Sandy Roberts for her commentary.

'Serena, serving for the point...'

Re: The Official Tennis Thread

I hate when they promote their shows in the middle of the match. Like, gtfo, I don't care about 'My Kitchen Rules', etc. stop wasting my time with this shameless cross promotion. And I don't want commercials after every fucking game. There shouldn't be commercials during sports. Do you see any commercials during football, like the English Premier League or The Champions League (apart from during half-time)? The answer is no, channel 7 is really annoying me. I'm seeing more commercials than tennis, fucking stupid.

Re: The Official Tennis Thread

lol, I just read somewhere that Serena is the most disliked player in the tournament. What has she done wrong? I think it's cause she sweats too much.

well i guess the "somewhere" is really crucial in this context. if the "somewhere" is a "we hate serena williams" site then those comments are understandable

Re: The Official Tennis Thread

Thoughts on the women's tournament?

It was okay. I think Justin Henin was the story. But it was pretty good apart from that. The chinese players did well.
