Hot off the heels of an amazing French Open, the men and women now turn to the grass courts of Wimbledon. Can Rafa continue with his momentum, or can Novak wrestle it back? Can Federer rise up and collect another slam? Can Murray get a breakthrough slam in front of his home crowd? Will there be a darkhorse shocker like Tomic :side: to come through and take the world by storm?

I'm thoroughly looking forward to this event, it's my favourite slam and I'm really hoping to see some great tennis on display. As far as the ladies go, you'd have to think Sharapova, Kvitova, Serena, Azarenka etc will all be in the mix, Stosur a slight chance provided she doesn't choke it up in monumental fashion, and well, who knows with the women, Wozniacki might even break through and break her duck.

June 25th, can't come soon enough.

Tipping Murray, who's never won a Grand Slam title, to win Wimbledon??? Obvious :troll

Wow, Del Potro eliminated in the 2nd round, that was unexpected. I know Hewitt is a dangerous player but I thought Del Po was going to win. Hewitt played really well but Del Po was really disappointing, way to many unforced erros and his forehand was just bad. If he only played better in the tie break...

Draw opens up for Djokovic now, he shouldn't have much problems in reaching the semis.

re: Official Tennis Discussion Thread

lol Murray

I sincerely hope that he never wins a slam. Annoying, so annoying, on the court and off it.

Would love to see someone like Tsonga and Del Potro get to the semi-finals by eliminating Federer and Nadal.

Actually, my wish for the semifinals is Tsona, Del Potro, Berdych (can't think of anyone else atm) and, obviously, Nole.
As expected, Djokovic would win.

Also, you foreigners are so annoying with your "Djoko". >.>

re: Official Tennis Discussion Thread

Have absolutely loved Wimbledon this year so far.

We've had some shocks, Nadal going out in the second round was pretty much the biggest slam upset ever in my opinion, we've had some great matches, some good five setters, the second longest match ever, the latest match finish ever and the best series of evening sesions we've seen in years. You had Nadal in his five setter and his loss, Federer very nearly going out in five sets and then last night with Murrays 11:02 finish. It's had it all so far, and it's just week one.

The Murray/Bagdhatis match last night was so fun to watch. Some great shot making, looked like Bagdhatis was going to take that third set too, full of drama, and the pace of the last set was unbelievable, some of Murrays shots were incredible. He needs to play better consistantly if he wants to reach the final though.

re: Official Tennis Discussion Thread

The order in which I would like to see things end:
1. Nole wins
2. Tsonga wins
3. Federer wins
4. Murray gets injured (not anything serious though)

Yeah.

I fully expect Tsonga to crush Murray.

Azarenka gifted Serena that tie-break, although I still think Serena would have won it either way.

Just too good.

Roll on Friday! :mark:
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!

Andy Murray can fuck himself. The man is one of the most dislikeable, rude, miserable, moaning, over hyped sportsmen in history. Even in his interview just now having got into the Wimbledon final he's coming across as nothing but miserable and rude, as usual.

I also despise the way the English public treat him as if he's one of our own, he's not, he's Scottish. We wouldn't root for a Scotsman in any other sport and I find it incredibly cringey the way the public rim Andy Murray purely because we haven't got any good English players of our own any more. So, so fucking sad.

Can't wait to see the GOAT destroy the cunt in the final.

Yeah, fuck that Chris Hoy guy :torres

I think the Murray hatred is way OTT in here. Out of the top 4, I see Federer as the only really likeable guy and even he can be a bitch when things aren't going his way.
