guys  Ive hardly had much better than you. 5 sets I think we've seen and hes now the highest seed left in  scary stuff!lol. My coverage has been Tim, Andy and Andre. Over and over and over. But I think they'll show all the matches tomorrow. So I hope to see him, thats if he plays! But I had to laugh when watching the re run of Roddick. Boris cracks me up  He was talking about Paradon. He was saying "I am dying to see this guys upper body. He is very fit indeed and has lots of muscles and lovely arms. Very nice" |

This is getting silly..last night on the BBC highlights programme they finished off with a section on the *eight mens quarter finalists*...they showed how the TV companies and press from each country is following their guy.So we had clips of Dick, footage of Shalken and Popp and Henman being interviewed on TV, footage of Jonas playing,some French TV with Seb, and an Aussie reporter talking about Scud......and......THATS ONLY SEVEN GUYS YOU MORONS...YOU'RE MISSING SOMEBODY VERY, VERY IMPORTANT!!!!! I give up!  No news yet on Rogers back...~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~healing vibes....... GO BABY!! |

All right Rogers back injury was diacnosted (hope that's the right word) as a lumbago. Would you believe even swiss news are short of news about our boy. Guess that belongs to his tactics. Not to much media around him so he can focus on what really counts. His health and his game and his next opponent. As we all know also Schalken is injured. His foot problems turned out to be an effusion of blood and an inflamation nothing broken. So I'm pretty sure both will turn up for their encounter. Gooo Roger gooo all depends on how long Seb needs to send Tim off but there are still 4 hrs. to go |

 CHeering for ROGI!!  What is lumbago? Weak muscles in the back and stomach increase the risk of backaches. Therefore, moderate exercise is highly recommended. Lumbago is defined as mild to severe pain or discomfort in the area of the lower back. The pain can be acute (sudden and severe) or chronic if it has lasted more than three months. Lumbago often occurs in younger people whose work involves physical effort and is not uncommon in people of retirement age. What causes lumbago? In the majority of cases, it is impossible to identify the exact cause of backache. In about 25 per cent of cases, however, it is possible to identify the cause. Often, these patients are suffering from conditions like a slipped disc, osteoporosis (brittle bones), deformation of natural spine curvature (scoliosis) or more rarely, skeletal damage due to tumours or infection. What are the symptoms of lumbago? Pain across the lower part of the back that sometimes radiates into the buttocks, the back of the thigh or to the groin. The pain is usually worse on movement. Limitation in movement of the spine - especially bending forward and leaning back. Tense spasm of the muscles surrounding the spine and causing a stiff back. With severe pain and spasm, the back may tilt to one side causing a change in posture. The pain is sometimes accompanied by a tingling sensation or numbness in the back or buttocks or leg. What can be done at home to ease back pain? Acute low back pain Use painkillers. Special medicines for relaxation of muscles may sometimes be prescribed. NSAIDs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs eg ibuprofen) and muscle relaxants relieve more pain than placebo. Activity is beneficial. Stay active. Get on with your life within the limits of your pain. Warmth helps, as does swimming in a warm pool. Rest and sleep lying on a firm, flat surface, if possible. Avoid stooping, bending, lifting and sitting on low chairs. Bear in mind that backaches are rarely caused by a serious illness and usually go away in a couple of days. Hope it's not too bad for Rogi! We want Rogi to make the SF!

But now I fear I won't see any of Roger as Swiss TV may no longer show it.
Oh well still good luck Roger

hey hey! Lucky you again Sue, nice pics! ;D stupid damn rain, its so frustrating hi ILR! isn't this ridiculous??!! even if Tim and Mark finish today, which I highly doubt, what's the forecast for tomorrow??? they'll have to play all the QFs men and women tomorrow... as long as this delay helps ROGI... surely ROGI and Pandy's matches are resched for tomorrow now... I can't stand the suspense... another sleepless night! I need a dark circles under the eyes icon!! |

Well, it's hot and humid and sunny here... 34C They just said that they're starting one hr earlier tomorrow to get in all the matches AND they're moving FEDERER/SCHALKEN match to Court 2! I just want the rain to go away... preferably to Wales, where it belongs!! [oops, Wales is always rainy... I've yet to see the sun there!] GO ROGI GO! Hope time give him more chance to heal... This is madness!

Hi Doris! And here we have a saying - that you are only as old as the guy you are feeling!!! Which in my case makes me 21...right?!! As for the Marco pic, it was taken by my friend who doesn't have a zoom....I managed to get a pic of his legs when he was hitting with Roger...will put it up when I get the rest of my pics back...Glad you enjoyed them..I certainly enjoyed taking them ;D RF the *Guess * pic was taken by another friend and it is....Feliciano!! Rain may be good for Roger giving him more time to rest his sore back ( more ~~~~~~~~~~ vibes, honey) GO ROGER!! |
