Go HENIN & IVANOVIC!
But Henin mostly. Ivanovic is more of a pretty face to me. :p

& in the mens I'm going for Gasquet.

arghhh faghdatis won against safin... i hope he loses next round at least. i agree that sharapova is arrogant but i was going for her cause she was up against stupid davenport - she just gives me the shits!!
i want serena williams to win this year, shes such a good sport. ooh or maybe ana ivanovic, shes so hot!! and for mens i want either roddick or djokovic to take it out =D im dead sick of federer prancing around the court killing everybody with boredom like usual :uhoh:

christ, why do you people judge tennis players by their character but not their tennis abilities? federer is fairly arrogant if you read some of his comments, but he is winning, and at the end of the day that's all that counts.

baghdatis and safin's match was dead set semi final or even final stuff, nothing less than sheer brilliance from both players. at this form, i honestly doubt hewitt has a chance against either of them.

C'MON. baghdatis wins once again. hope he goes all the way this year. such a great player to watch.
in the third set, his serve was unbreakable and his return of serve on balls travelling at 200+ km/h was just amazing. that was the thing that won him the match.
if he could cut down on the unforced errors then i reckon he could win the match against hewitt in straight sets. however, if he switches off like he did in the 3rd and 4th sets, then i think an upset is possible. : (
despite my patriotism, i just think hewitt is a bit of an ass and dont really like the way he plays, which is just scrambling to chase every ball (a bit like nadal, on nadal does it a lot better and has more power and skill).

shut up you faggot. we can judge them however we want. if a player is winning but is a total arrogant dickhead then we arent allowed to take it into account? of course we are.

That match was intense, I was sitting on the edge of my seat (literally) for the entire last two sets. Holy shit. :eek:

jannny, it's Kohlschreiber, just so you know. :wave:

Roddick to ball kid - " Stay in school, don't become a tennis umpire"

HAHA - that was gold

That match was awesome. Like Safin, I'm sad to see Roddick out so early but Kohlschreiber definitely deserved it.

he is a solid player. damaging serves and good groundstrokes. i am surprised roddick didn't win tho, he is a classy player after all.

Kuznetsova and Chakvetadze both knocked out, by Radwanska and Kirilenko respectively. Both surprising results, Kuznetsova's more so than Chakvetadze's though.

Today's the first time I heard of Kirilenko. I quite like her. I want to see her win.
