Tennis

It was a great day!! 7-1. Hopefully Roddick can finish it off tomorrow, Odesnik tied at 2 sets apiece, Vandeweghe down match point will be tough-I can't believe they didn't let them play one more point.

I hope Roddick makes it to the next round. I hope he plays spoiler to the big 4.

[QUOTE=producer88;309325]Yeah it was a great day! I hope Roddick makes it to the next round. I hope he plays spoiler to the big 4.[/QUOTE] I can see him upsetting Ferrer in the 4th and making the Quarters but I think Murray makes the Semis.

Hooray, Görges and Lisicki move on, now only crossing fingers for Kerber. Pity though that Beck is out, but her time surely will come!

ahhhhh the rain!! But yay Stephens upset the 23 seed Cetkovska, congrats to her! Odesnik and Vandeweghe fell though. At least we get to watch a few matches on Centre Court, especially Ryan taking on the world number 1 Djokovic!!!!!!

WOWWWW RAFAEL NADAL OUT IN THE 2nd ROUND!! What an EPIC match!! That felt like a final, It was edge of your seat amazing!! Best match so far on Wimbledon. This opens up Wimbledon!! This is why I love Tennis, anyone can win!!!!!!

That was such an amazing match, a lot of fun to watch!!!! I honestly can't believe what I just saw!!! I remember Rosol's name from Davis Cup, he hit a bunch of winners and aces and I was like why haven't I heard of him before? Then after that he just wasn't winning a ton, but wow this is huge!

So now Murray actually has a chance to shut up all the Brits who agonize over their players not winning majors.

Just like that we only have 2 American women left (Serena & Lepchenko). Serena is really the only American (both men & women) that has a realistic shot, and that is even a difficult to achieve for her (she has to go through Kvitova, then Azarenka, and after that Sharapova). Sloan Stephens could have beaten Lisicki if she only closed out that lead in the first set tie braker (she choked).

Do you know how much the public & media scrutinize him hahaha, he already has it bad enough!

No shame in losing to last years semi-finalist, but she definitely could have had this one! I look forward to seeing Serena do just that :victory:. How about Querrey taking out big serving Raonic?! Very impressive!! Congrats Sam. [QUOTE=producer88;309776]If Andy Murray some how doesn't make the finals now, he will be an epic fail!

He did awesome as well, and I'm happy he's making his comeback since injury. Rosol did play amazing! I wonder if he could keep it up, that will make him a sure contender, but I have a feeling he won't. I also hope Murray makes it to the end, and wins it so we can have variety on the men side haha. It's funny cause the women need more consistent performers!

But yes, Murray is definitely who I want to win, I'd love to see someone break the top 3's hold on the majors!! And we are on the same page for the women too haha, I hope Serena becomes that consistent performer again!

I hope Murray is out next round. Cannot stand him.

Man sad lost for Sam :(...It sucks seeing someone so close lose, especially when he 2 points to match points multiple times. 6 Americans came in today, and only 3 survived. Serena (last female chance), Mardy Fish, and Brian Baker. I still think Serena has the best shot at the trophy, but has a HUGE uphill battle. I guess, one match, one set, one game, and one point at a time.

I feel so bad for Sam!!! But he has to be positive about this tourney, I think he is back. Second longest match at Wimbledon though!! Exciting to watch. Yep down to 3, it will be very tough for Serena but indeed one point at a time. Tsonga and Kohlschreiber will be tough matches for Fish and Baker, but I think both definitely have a chance.

[QUOTE=producer88;309776]If Andy Murray some how doesn't make the finals now, he will be an epic fail!

Transport him back ten years and he wins 2-3 majors at least.

[QUOTE=ILoveRW;309809]I hope Murray is out next round. Cannot stand him.[/QUOTE] See I feel that way about Serena Williams.

[QUOTE=Help Desk;310072]See I feel that way about Serena Williams.[/QUOTE] WHY? I love me some Serena Williams. I was so nervous that Venus and Serena were going to both lose and become washed up.

I love Serena as well! And Murray for that matter. They are both who I would love to win come Sunday!!! Can't believe Sharapova is out, but Lisicki definitely has a great game...just didn't think she had a chance because of recent form. I was dreaming of a Sharapova Williams final, I think it woulda been a good storyline for women's tennis. And let's go Fishy and Baker!!!!

Serena keeps scaring me! She just needs to return better! Her serve is seriously the best in women history! Man will we ever get the dream final Sharapova v Serena again? Those two could be great rivals sigh... I hate these rain delays! They better not take Serena vs Kvitova out of Centre Court. I hope they move Bakers game to Centre Court, it seems like Djokovic will win this in about an hour or so.

I know the rain is killing me! But if they move a match to Centre Court I think it will be one that has already started, since there is the 11 o clock curfew. But ya Serena is keeping me on edge!! haha but I think she will keep battling and find her best form. How about Fish breaking Tsonga for the first time this whole tournament! Fish has looked extremely sharp, I hope he can keep it up when the match continues!

Go Serena!!!! She is into the Semis, I'm so happy for her! She played amazing tennis today, as did defending champion Kvitova. Very high quality match, very powerful exchanges between two of the biggest hitting players on the tour. Let's go Serena!!! Sad Baker is out, but I'm so excited to see where his path goes because his comeback story is really amazing. I hope with more and more match play he continues to rise!! I'm disappointed to see it looks like Fish's level dropped, or maybe Tsonga's rose, I didn't see any of that match today.

Tsonga really got lucky for having an extra rest day, he also is having back issues like Federer. Serena played AMAZING! If she keeps it up, she will be the one to beat. She needs to bring that focus and intensity again just 2 more times. Again it's just one match, on set, one game, one point at a time. Also Serena is the last USA hopeful once again.

[QUOTE=producer88;310192]If they were allow to continue to play yesterday, I seriously think Fish would have won ....[/QUOTE] Was I supposed to be in center court yesterday? My bad. Must have been a scheduling mix up with my agent cause I was off shooting an underwear ad instead,,,,, :devil2: Yeah breaking people's mo' is a bad thing to do in tournament sports.

Yeah his rhythm just went out the window in the second day.

[QUOTE=producer88;310192]If they were allow to continue to play yesterday, I seriously think Fish would have won, he had so much momentum, and today it just wasn't there. e times. Again it's just one match, on set, one game, one point at a time.

But still I'm pretty happy about how he did this tourney, since he recently had a procedure for his heart condition. I honestly had no clue how he would do and for me he exceeded expectations. Well as for Serena being our last hope once again, we are used to it! She is looking good and I can't wait for the Azarenka match!

Federer vs Djokovic is going to be a great macth! I'm rooting for Murrary in his match against Tsonga. Man the men's semis look great! I don't know who will make the final. The winner from Serena vs Azarenka will most likely win imo. Kerber will still be a major challenge, but I hope either Serena or Vika to take the title (Serena the most seriously). As long as Radwansga doesn't win the title and become the 1 rank woman (that will be an epic fail for WTA).

[QUOTE=producer88;310270] As long as Radwansga doesn't win the title and become the 1 rank woman (that will be an epic fail for WTA).[/QUOTE] At least she'd have a Major title on her resume unlike some others (03 Clijsters, Safina, Jankovic, Wozniacki)

It's gonna be Serena vs. Radwanska!!! Very amazing serving display from Serena today, her ace count is unbelievable!! It was 4 years ago, but Serena did beat Aga here 6-4, 6-0. I think she will have too much power and will overwhelm the Polish magician (I love Radwanska's touch it can be fun to watch). Now, let's go Murray!!!
