July 2, 201113 yr Poor Roger He makes tennis so enjoyable to watch. He's like a dancer out there Federer, US Open champ 2011. I'm calling it. No clue who's gonna win this Wimbledon though. Other than Maria. But the men's match should be a classic.
July 2, 201113 yr Hard to figure out what went wrong for Roger there. Towards the end of the Tsonga match, he wasn't nearly as into it as I would have expected and looked like he couldn't get out of cruise control. I still think he's capable of winning another major though. Â And poor Murray. As if being around in the same era as two of the best players of all time wasn't bad enough, he's been completely surpassed by Djokovic this year as well. Sucks to be fourth in the world, it would seem.
July 2, 201113 yr Do the English really love Murray as much as they say? I mean he's Scottish. Don't you guys hate each other?
July 2, 201113 yr We get the best of both worlds with Andy. If he wins, he's British and if he loses, he's Scottish. Â Generally speaking though, I'd say Murray is pretty popular here. Some folks find it irritating that he's far more aggressive and ruthless than Tim Henman (not to mention considerably less upper class), but most get behind him and expect him to win. For what it's worth, I myself am more a fan of Murray than I ever was of Henman.
September 8, 201311 yr US Open Go Serena, today at 4:30 Eastern. And tomorrow (Nadal v. Djokovic) may the best man win. I am a Federer fan.
September 9, 201311 yr Serena won in her typical fashion. Frustrated freakouts, some whining, gets mad and destroys. Yeah, I would probably rather see Novak win. He is a much cooler guy.
September 9, 201311 yr Lol! Just like the semis I guess then  I hope his 3 set winning against Nole's 5 set victory won't be a factor though.
September 9, 201311 yr Djokovic has some great endurance though if memory serves. I just hope the camera cuts to his girlfriend a lot. I remember a semifinal against Murray(maybe Australia 2012) he had and the camera kept cutting to her intense reactions and cheering. Best tennis match I ever saw. Jelena Ristic is her name.
March 25, 20205 yr I like to watch WTA and other tennis tournaments. My favorite player in Maria Sharapova so I often watch her games.
October 4, 20204 yr Perhaps unsurprisingly, it's been a strange old Roland Garros so far and a minefield for the seeds, with five players in both singles draws reaching the middle weekend despite having never won a match at a slam.

That will stay with me forever, I think.Â

Zverev's match right now it's showing it as well...  2 hours ago, Michael* said: Still, yesterday's image of Djokovic serving from the dry half of the court to Galan in torrential rain (while they were midway through the process of shutting the roof) takes some beating.
