It was on a news update. And I dunno, there's been massive hype about it lately - he's got FB groups and stuff already.

Re: The Official Tennis Thread

I actually didn't like it when he was a commentator because his accent was annoying and he sounded feminine at times.
But i'll start paying more attention to what the commentators say from now on.

Wow, Williams lost to Li Na. Chinese women's tennis is doing well.

Re: The Official Tennis Thread

Li Na just beat Venus Williams. Yay! I don't really like the Williams dynasty, its a bit boring.

Re: The Official Tennis Thread

Li seemed really nice in the interview. "He talks too much but he's a nice guy". lol

Wow nice comeback from Li Na.
Speaking of commentators, I think Nicole Bradtke = Cpt. Obvious.

Its true. Most of them are terrible and it Jim Courier always says something good and tries to get an insightful conversation going but the others really just describe what is happening in an uninsightful way. This was especially true of Roger Rasheed (Lleyton's old coach), he was terrible. But Lleyton's other coach, David something, was really good.

Re: The Official Tennis Thread

Holy fuck.

Channel 7 are not only shit enough to cut to SHIT programming for an hour and a half, but when they return to the tennis it's not even live.

Fuck them to hell.

I'm glad 9 has the winter olympics this year.
