well i guess you can say she's the female version of roddick. haha
DoubleJ
This is indeed true but Sharapova acts like she is the shit. I can name 7 or 8 players that would wipe her off the court any day of the week. Roddick is at least humble and knows he has work to do.

Teesa
^i know! whoaaa, gotta love that australian though.

WATCHING RODDICK! woohooooo. he had some problems in that third set, but he looks good again now. but he's breathing kind of hard and i don't like when he does that because that means he's getting tired :/

YYYYESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[edit]AHAHAHAHAHAHA some kids in the crowd just shit on Murray

but I'm still rooting for him
Teesa
^hahaaaa his teeth

i was going for gulbis, but that's pretty much out the window now.
brooklyneast05
i dont think i like murray
Tung
all these talks about these guys are pointless. their just bowling pins for federer to knock out anyways.
kryogenix
lol tung, where were you when Federer was getting knocked out of the early rounds at the beginning of the year? Murray has a winning record over Federer, 6-2.
Tung
you mean when federer beat murray for his 13th grand slam at the u.s open back in september?

what federer had to say about murray for this wimbledon

“I always knew that Andy was going to be one of the toughest ones to beat on grass next to Rafa and Djokovic,” said Federer, who opens play on Centre Court today against Yen-Hsun Lu of Taipei. Asked whether Murray is his biggest threat, Federer said: “No.”

LOL you're in denial over his losses. Federer has peaked, there's no getting around that fact.

Read again, I said early at the beginning of THIS year, where Murray beat Federer at Indian Wells and Doha. And when Federer cried like a bitch when he lost the Aussie Open. Yeah, he beat Murray LAST year, but since then, Murray has owned Federer four times, including wins in Madrid and the Masters Cup after Fed's US Open victory over Murray.

I'm still expecting Federer to win Wimbeldon. But no wonder Fed is disrespecting Murray, if Murray wins, he'll overtake Federer as #2. He did the same shit to Djokovic when he was catching up in ranking.

Teesa
^that was mean...so what if he's a little emotional? sad.gif

this is random but back to his quote from tung's post...i love when people say rafa.
kryogenix
Haas is gonna choke again... what a waste of talent
Teesa

Hmmm guess I spoke too soon. Sucks, I bet on Cilic and now my money is tied up for another day.

Haas: you can't take pictures please

random lady: hurry up
random ladies: yeah hurry up
random gent: nobody even likes you

Zoom on the excited little girl

PRICELESS!!
Teesa
i am SO angry that i had to watch roddick win on the wimbledon slamtracker online. why the hell would they not show that match when it was on center court?? i'm sooo happy he won, but WTF. seriously.

i liked hearing about the two major upsets in women's tennis.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I remember that

Haas lucked out hardcore, he would have been f*cked if not for the suspension of play. Congrats to him though, I actually like his style of play, it's just a shame that he's such a headcase.

It boggles the mind how ESPN prioritizes which match to show. Oh well, at least I can watch Murray against Troicki.

[edit]Oh snap, I just noticed Troicki uses an Ozone Tour.
brooklyneast05
damn this is intense. i want murray to lose so people will shut up about how he needs to win it
Tung
lets go wawrinka

lol, great match. murray played like he was hungover in the first set, but wawrinka just couldn't keep making those great winners he was hitting all game.

Teesa
i had to watch everything online but it was intense for me every time that screen refreshed! i was going for wawrinka not gonna lie. but anyways


GO RODDICK WOOHOOO!!

he's going to play hewitt next though and that's pretty scary.
kryogenix
I'm not betting on any upsets in the quarters. Roddick's been owning Hewitt in their past several matches, so I still think Roddick will win, even if it might take more than 3 sets. Karlovic has been serving like a beast, but Federer is too good for that to matter. Murray has Ferrero, but this is on grass and not clay, so I doubt he'll give Murray much trouble. Haas vs Djokovic might be interesting, two head cases.

DoubleJ
Not for nothing...but I could see Karlovic upsetting fed.
kryogenix
Well, I think there will be tiebreakers and Karlovic may take a set or two, but I just don't think Dr. Ivo can serve perfectly for three sets, let alone 5 if it gets that far. Federer can also do more to his second serve than the guys that Karlovic has played with so far, and I don't think he has the return game to break back if Federer can break him due to his size.

But we'll see, maybe Fed will have an off day and Karlovic will serve the match of his life.
Sandraaa
OMG. Verdasco is out. NOOOOOOOOOOOO. Anyway, Fedex is going to beat the shit out of Karlovic. Phew. And GO HEWITT !!!!! What an hell of a comeback. And Murray, WOOHOO.

I just can't stand Djokovic and Safina ... I want them out.
Teesa
^djokovic lost :/

i like safina...but the only reason is that she's safin's sister.

federer won :) andy was down 4-2 to hewitt in the second set, but now it's tied!

edit//

this second set tiebreak is so INTENSE omg
kryogenix
Not to take anything from Haas, since he was playing great (it's always good to see someone doing serve and volley these days), but Djokovic was pathetic. I don't think he has a real shot at being #1. Hopefully Haas vs. Federer will be like their French Open match.
Teesa
ohhh no, it's going to a fifth set
Tung
wow roddick almost got broken ... hewitt so close going up 3-1 in that 5th set
Tung
WOW RODDICK BREAKS lead 5-4....this game is over
kryogenix
Too bad this is probably the end of the line for Roddick.
Teesa
NO IT'S NOT!
Sandraaa
Man wtf, Hewitt lost. Pff. Anyway, it's going to be a Fedex vs Andy match. And for the females, the Williams. Lovely. xD
Tung
which andy do u think will win

Don't be so sure of it. Haas had match point on Federer in the French Open, and I feel like he's playing stronger as of late. If anything, serve and volley will work better on grass than it did on clay. It all depends on which Tommy Haas shows up on court.

If I had to pick one men's match to watch, it would be Haas vs Fed. Murray vs Roddick is just gonna be Murray toying with Roddick. Roddick will continually overuse his slice backhand, then once his serve breaks down, he's going to get frustrated and overhit.

On the women's side, I'm rooting for Venus. I detest Serena.
