Don't think Kohl will beat Andy. He has blown all his big GS matches so far. But who knows.

Some of these points are straight out of a PHM-Nadal showdown. But Simon is not quite as good as PHM. Come on, allez.

Lol, good to know Sharapova's serve was only hot shit against Kostanic and a non-aggressive Davenport. Vesnina and her in a break-fiesta.

Yes, most straight men would pick Maria.
Mind you I post on a forum with high activitiy and 98% of posters are straight males. There is a section for babe pics and many tennis stars pics have been posted including ana, anna, daniela, nicole, tati, etc. etc., and the favorite is by far ----Maria Sharapova.
maybe a guy would rather fuck Vesnina for a one night stand because of her boobs, but if you asked guys "who would they picture as their gf" Maria would win easily unless you asked a bunch of black dudes.
Remember, womens tennis attracts a huge body of people with deep liberal prejudices (queers (Hurley), racial minorities, insecure girls (becca), and of course some just plain flaming liberals (janie)). It's these type of fans that dislike Maria. So to slander her, they try and insult her looks by talking about her "shoulders" and nonsense-- However, women's tennis fans do not represent reality at all. And in reality, Maria is attractive; very attractive.

The reason why there are more pictures of Maria on fan boards is because she's famous. She's a GS champ and she's HEAVILY marketed. Also, the average heterosexual guy is very different from the average heteresexual guy tennis fan. Not knowing who either one is, most straight guys would go for Vesnina's superior body hands down. And it's not just about her boobs.
Looks like Gilles needed a bit of a rest on that changeover and got it. HUGE forehand on the run for 0-40 triple set point.

I have seen threads where they post multiple girls at the same time and the consensus is that Masha's the best. btw, you realize Maria was in SI swimsuit edition and looked better than most of the real models don't you? And no, no amount of airbrushing and photography skills could make the other girls look as good as Maria did. |

Koubek blew his 3-0 fourth set lead on PHM ... 4-4 now ...
I'm more interested in Venus and Serena playing doubles against Kat/Ai. And winning!

And she gets plenty more photo shoots too. Not because she's better looking, but because she's a better player. That's why the guys you're talking about are drooling over her more. Let's pretend the two are walking next to each other down the street and they're just random tall chicks and not tennis players - the average guy picks Elena. No way was Maria better looking than the other girls in that issue. Maria wouldn't be successful as a model if she wasn't already famous as a tennis player and GS champ. Maria wouldn't have a shot at SI Swimsuit because her shoulders and her hips make her proportions less idea than most models. The fashion world is strict and picky. |

ESPN2 here was showing a few games of it and they had some great rallies at net. Go V/S! Thank god Simon is almost out of his misery. He's been ehausted since the middle of the first set. |

And may I say, holy shit, Su-Wei Hseih! From the qualies to the fourth round! She'd never won a maindraw match at a Slam prior to this one. She's 22, ranked #158 in the world, has never been higher up than #112. There was absolutely no reason to expect this after three years of stagnation in the #150 range. Plus, she's still alive in doubles, too.  Although that is being threatened right now ... I expect Justine to give her a tennis lesson, but this is her breakout week, no doubt about it. Masha leads Elena 7-2 lifetime. I imagine she will win again ... I'd love for Vaidisova to supply us with the big upset of Serena. I'm ASSUMING Mauresmo will dispatch Dellacqua tonight, and if she does, she's in tough against Jankovic. Amelie leads that head-to-head 5-1, but ... she has been so unimpressive so far it's hard to count on her for much. Then again, Jankovic is lucky to be the fourth round. Hard to call ... Kat/Ai broke for 4-2 in the 2nd set against the Williamses, but were broken back.  |

Jankovic vs. Mauresmo would be very interesting indeed. That could be a choking break-fest. Hope it happens. I'd give Jelena the slight edge to win it in 3, like 6-4, 2-6, 6-3.

I think PHM is slowly on the way to Top 15 this year or next. He should, but I don't see too many more chances for Koubek to reach the 4r of a Slam. PHM will have many. At any rate, PHM won the fourth set 7-5. |

I saw Hsieh at Wimby when she lost 6-8 in the third. She was far from brainless there. Her style is unorthodox and she hits some crazy shots at times but she has touch. She's a choker though. I was at that match!!!! She has a lovely BH. Anyway: SU-WEI HSIEH!!!!!!!!! I am totally grateful to everyone who posted what was going on, otherwise I'd never have known about the drama, and just how many MPs she blew. Remember when she first came on the circuit? And went unbeaten in the Challengers, then reached the SF and QF in her first two WTA tournaments? Seemed then she'd be top 100 at least in no time. It's only taken her seven years but here she is at last. Dementieva thrashing Peer? Wow. Did not expect that at all. This time last year, Shahar was holding her own against Serena. Jankovic is wondering why she's tired, and has aches and pains. Right. I'd love to love her, but this is so dumb. Sweepstake on how many months she'll have to take off this year with some chronic injury? I say six. I kind of assumed Ana and Novak screwed when they were juniors, or something? Both of them must have so many hot randoms throwing themselves at their feet. |

Half the time I see photos of her off court she looks like she's drowning in rags. |

There are, quite simply, no emoticons which can fully do justice to the sheer embarrassment of Mauresmo losing to CASEY DELLACQUA, who is now in the SECOND WEEK OF A SLAM.

Lolz @ Mauresmo. Consecutive doublefaults and blowing 40-0? I thought she would've found her drive in '08 but so much passive crap, even now?
Todd Woodbridge is such a good-looking guy. Wow. He's aged well. Or maybe it's the first time I really noticed him.
The big question: Can Dellacqua overcome the injured/exhausted/ailing Jankovic?

Jimmy Connors told Vijay Amritraj that the reason he began to coach Roddick is because he felt Andy wasn't getting his due. Erm.
Also, Vijay believes Kohl might be able to take a set off A-Rod.

Woodbridge is hot, yes. I always thought he was better looking than Rafter - who wasn't fug by any means, but who consistently had terrible hair - and certainly better than that vacant, hulking oaf Philippoussis.
