Wimbledon starts TOMORROW. Weird.

[The Chloe]

Allez:

Dancin' Frank
Tsonga
Djokovic
Tipsarevic
Kutuzova

Probably others. I got lazy after this many.

[leelee]

Golf tomorrow. Mariarena + needless tea and crumpets pieces + Chris Fowler on ESPN will have to wait a day.

[Traveling Man]

I learned from the fluff pieces so far:

1. The pineapple at the top of the men's trophy is there because back in ye olde days it was a sign of wealth.
2. The 2009 men's champion will have his name engraved on the base of the trophy. This is a first.
3. WozDen wants to win Wimbledon more than any other Slam.
4. Serena thinks all the Slams are special.
5. Safina reached a junior final here and wants to improve on her 3rd Round performance.
6. Radwanska loves Wimbledon and the strawberries.
7. CAKE wants another final here. She'd do anything for another final.

[lexpretend]

OK, so...Laura Robson is damn good. And Danielka is still pathetic! Robson's hitting bold winners from everywhere, inc one incredible FH angle which made my jaw drop. Also: SHE DOESN'T GRUNT. Not so much as a squeak!

[lexpretend]

Issues with double faults, though.

[Traveling Man]

Sania Mirza serving for the first set against ALG. She's playing a big game and hasn't allowed ALG to get into points - errors and double faults are at a minimum.

[Traveling Man]

Hmmm....Kleybanova leads THUNDER!!! 6-2.

[DBBN]

Keep it up, Seppi.

[DBBN]

A-Pav is the first winner!

[lexpretend]

SEPPI?!

LOL Flake.

This is Thunda's worst surface, while Kleybanova excels on faster surfaces and made the 4R last year. Not a surprise, though with Kleyb slumping, there is still time to come back.

[Traveling Man]

Queen Masha is already down a break of serve to Kutuzova. Ugh.

Flake got the second set back on serve, BOOOOOO

I too will be mainly focusing on the golf, starting at 9, but I will be flicking.

Life is good.

Please let the only player since 2001 to be illegally seeded lose ASAP

[Traveling Man]

This is the best part about being unemployed - you can follow GS tournaments without any hassle.

Make that a double break - Kutuzova serving at 4-1.

[DBBN]

Ball sac, Flo is going to lose, isn't he.

I KNOW! Also, my dissertation is being ignored for at least a week.

[DBBN]

"Andy" Lu?

Andrew LU (TPE).

Oh, it might be "Randy."

Does he date Latisha CHAN (TPE)?

My pre-reading for the program I start this fall is being ignored too! ;D I haven't done this in an odd 2 years or so. Hehe.

Let the count begin! Heh.

She's fought back to 5-5. What a warrior!!1 Hope she pulls this match out.

[Traveling Man]

*slaps Lu for missing that volley at 30-30*

[DBBN]

Kutuzova is a big grunter too

[lexpretend]

Oh dear. Robson double faulted twice to give Hantuchova the second set, was broken in the third set on a double fault, and went on to double fault on match point.

Hope she enjoyed the Wimbledon pressure. She'll get it every year until she dies!!
