This could be a tight tiebreak.

Indeed.

Azarenka gifted Serena that tie-break, although I still think Serena would have won it either way.
Just too good.
Roll on Friday!

Yeah disappointing display by Victoria at the end of that tie-breaker.
The Bryan's also got won tonight in their match. What an awesome team they are!
BTW why are Female matches 2 sets to win and Male 3 Sets?
I have always thought it is a bit degrading and personally I enjoy female tennis at times more than male tennis, the top girls can definitely go!

re: Official Tennis Discussion Thread
I knew Serena would win that match. her serve is just too strong, its impossible to break down. If Serena wins the first or second set in the final, she's going to win. Because there's just such a slim chance anyone will be able to break to attempt to win without the third set tiebreak. So my prediction...Serena Williams, in two.
I wont be able to watch tomorrow, I'm at work!  I'll try get it on the work computer or in the bar though so I'll keep track. Can't wait for those two matches, both could be incredible. Have Federer and Djokovic every played on grass before? Gonna be some great shot making. And as for Murray/Tsonga, it could also be fantastic with great play between the two, let alone possibly being special for a different reason *cough* British guy in the final *cough*. My prediction for the final is...
Novak Djokovic vs. Andy Murray. With Djokovic winning. Even though I'd love Andy to do it.

Federer and Djokovic have NEVER faced each other on grass. That's what makes this match even more exciting. I am hoping for a long 5 setter. Should be a great match. Will be inviting some mates over and will have some snacks and drinks.
Can't wait!!!!!

Fuck off Serena. I hate those sisters. It's gonna be 10 out of 13 Wimbledon's they've won. Go away!

They can't cope with the demands of it physically.
Put a couple of bets on today before the matches:
Djokovic/Murray final - £50 @ evens
Williams & Djokovic to win outright - £50 @ 5/2
It hurt wanting Serena to win but money talks.

That's nonsense!
Average women can't compete with men, I would agree.
But these women are professional athlete and I think a few more sets wouldn't tire them!
