    My French fancy Marion Bartoli got whipped today :54: Will switch my loyalties to Ana Ivanovic now. No doubt it will be those big ugly monster Williams sisters in the finals though. :31:

    Ah well, I want Federer to win the mens so I might get one out of 2! :icon_mrgreen:

    YES :icon_mrgreen:

    Wawrinka's backhand is awesome, that was an epic.

    Credit where its due and that Wawrinka gave Murray a game but the best man won at the end of the day and it WAS the end of the day!!
    Its a toughie against ferrero in the 1/4 finals but i think hes got what it takes. Did you see some of the shots he pulled off in the last set after Wawrinka won 3 on the bounce after Murray had just gone 3-0 up!!
    Tremoendous ability and if he doesnt win it this year then he will at some point in the near future. Gotta take advantage of Nadal not being there this year know what i mean folks cos he is the man.

    Go On Andy Boy!!!

    Watching Safina's match just now. Lesicki doesn't seem to cope well with pressure. She is hot though.

    It's time for Ivan the Terrible to bombard another victim. Ivanišević was a player of terrifying 1. serve, and he won Wimbledon. Karlović is as well, can he repeat the success? * knows, and I hope that he can.

    Fed looks like he cruises through games, it's incredible.

    Any idea when Roddick is on today?

    I want him to win (got a cheeky fiver on him winning the whole thing) but I really like Hewitt and it's great to see him doing well again.

    Andy played well to win in straight sets. His first Wimbledon semi final. I don't think he'll win the tournament because Federer is playing so well.

    This is some match between these 2, Hewitt is scrapping for everything.
