Yeah i agree. Not a Nadal fan, but he's good for the sport and i hope he recovers well from his injury. Would be a shame for him to miss the Australian open

As for the mens. Tournaments next week in Beijing and Tokyo.
In Beijing, we have Djokovic, Ferrer, Tsonga, Isner, Cilic, plus more
In Tokyo we have Murray, Berdych, Tipsarevic, Monaco, Almagro,plus more
And the Shanghai masters starts the following week

Shvedova is just confident shot that's all. I'm sure she'll return to form soon enough and grab a seeding spot for the Australian open. She's a talented player, but she's not very strong mentally. I have read some posts, and you seem to think very highly of her. Well i like her too, She is very cute like you have said before.
I hope Jo Willie can do well in Beijing. I think he's got a good shot at getting to the final, and it will help him in trying to secure a WTF spot. I also hope that Cilic has a good run, and Raonic has a good run in Tokyo.
I think i should introduce myself to you guys. I'm 17, and my favourite tennis player is Juan Martin Del Potro. I'm also a fan of Roger Federer, David Ferrer, Jo Wilfried Tsonga, Pete Sampras, Kei Nishikori, Marin Cilic and Milos Raonic. In the womens game, I don't have any particular favourite but i'm a fan of: Serena Williams, Maria Sharapova, Sara Errani, Roberta Vinci, Li Na, Sam Stosur, Yaroslava Shvedova, Sabine Lisicki, and Angelique Kerber.

Welcome to the forum
Yeah, i agree with you about Slava. She's not had any confidence since The Olympics. I'm hoping she can sort it out and return to her RG/Wimbledon form. It's also good to see that i'm no longer alone when it comes to Slava on this forum
I'm sure Jo will do well here. I am confident that he can have a great end to the season after his poor US Open run.
You have a great fave btw. I'm a Del Potro fan too.

Re: Tennis Discussion Thread
Been a Del Potro fan since 2009. Great game, and seems like a great guy too. Shame that injuries have held his career back, but i'm sure he'll win more slams in the future. Nadal and Fed won't have that much mileage left in them, so i think that Del Po will win another slam soon.
I've liked Shvedova since i first saw her at Roland Garros 2010. I for sure thought that she'd be top 20 or top 10 right now, but she got injured in 2011, and fell into obscurity. It was great to see her return to form at Roland Garros this year. She almost had me crying when she cried after winning her round 3 match  . I'd post a pic, but i can't because i don't have enough posts.
I've always been a big Sampras fan too. The first Tennis match i ever watched was Sampras vs Agassi at the US Open 2001. Great match, and i became a tennis fan and a fan of Pete. His volleys were brilliant and his serve is the greatest i've seen. Pete was my childhood hero for a while and it was a sad day when he retired. #2 GOAT imo behind Federer
I became a Federer fan 2 years later when he won Wimbledon in 2003, His tennis is so smooth and awe inspiring at times. I became a Tsonga fan in 2008 when he had that great Australian open run. He's a great watch and has a good on court attitude. I like Ferrer for the same reason i like Errani. They are both fighters, and i like fighters. I see a bright future for the likes of Raonic and Nishikori. Both are young and if they work on their games, they can be solid top 10 players in the future. Serena was another player i grew up watching. When she's at her best she is unbeatable, and amazing to watch. Then Maria came and beat her at Wimbledon, and i became a fan of her too.

Re: Tennis Discussion Thread
Slava will be top 20 by this time next year hopefully. I just wish she'd stop choking

Re: Tennis Discussion Thread
Are you two related? Chelsea & Del Po fans, and Shevedova admirers.

I don't think so. I didn't know he was a Chelsea fan. And i don't think i obsess about Shvedova as much as nazzac does either

He likes Sharapova. I don't
He's actually my cousin, who likes a lot of things i like. So yes, we are related, and don't try to deny it NC96. He's been at my house tonight, and i recommend he signed up, because the sports section on here is good and he loves hsi sports like me. He's the one who got me into tennis
