Peng wins, so Bepa won't be the first top seed to lose. If Hale beats Goo, Peng will probably make the QF. Jankovic is definitely not a top seed! Benesova out to a good start against Kirilenko. 6-3. Tomic-Lopez is one to watch. Gilbert shocked me by predicting Bernard is going to be in the top five in two years the other day. He's up 3-0 in this match. 3-1 now. It seems Nadal is in no mood to be extended by Sweeting. 6-2 6-1. Kvitova is hanging on to her one break in the second. She had to stave off some bps in her last service game. |

JJ is a single digit! Good enough.
Navratilova will see BG's Tomic prediction and raise him one "Raonic will DEFINITELY be in the Top Ten."
I want some of the drugs these commentators are all sharing.

Dear Bepa,
Please make it to the semifinals. Also, please don`t embarrass yourself when you meet Kim there.
Cheers,
Me

I wake up in the middle of the night only to see my countryman spraying balls everywhere but within the lines. I should go back to bed...
Which seeds are still alive in the women's draw? This is a tennis slasher - all the supporting characters are getting killed straight away at the beginning.

After years of sucking on the world stage*, I'm baffled by the sudden emergence of not one, but two talented 20-year-old who actually have top 30 potential. For now, they're just these giant serving machines, but with some improvement (especially for Rebecca), they could become pretty good.
It's gonna be great not to waste these Rogers Cup wildcards on hopeless journeymen/journeywomen for once.
*Well except for WozCan and Dancing Frank. They had their moments.

Janie, where are you getting your live feed? First I was watching channelsurfing.net, then I switched to ESPN3, then I got depressed and turned it off. Thanks. I'll see if I can find something on Veetle. |

TSN's website is live streaming the three main courts. Does Sjengster already know this? WHY DIDNT ANYBODY TELL ME? I didn't have to watch House!

I had a great moment a few weeks ago. This relates to the tennis match I'm currently watching, I swear.
To make a long story short, I was going through my sister's facebook photos, determining which of her friends looked like the biggest wanker. I just about given up and determined that they were all too cookie cutter to be wankers when, like magic, I come across the douchiest looking douche I'd seen in weeks. "Him! We have a winner!", I cried triumphantly. It was only then that I realized I had chosen her ex boyfriend, who she dated for almost all of university.
Anyway, so I'm watching Lopez and his opponent. When I see his opponent I think "gee, this guy looks like a huge twat". And then I discover it's Tomic! One of the young Aussie tools! Needless to say, this was a very exciting moment for me. I'm a great judge of character.
The universe has been smiling on me lately.

And the quality of the streams is amazing. Good job TSN. It's crystal clear, no lag... that's how it's done, TSN. When we get to matches I actually care about, I might watch it on my Dad's unnecessarily huge HD monitor. |

Nadezhda is dressed like a piñata.  Is this an Eleven design as well? |

I'm pretty sure that I have a more muscular chest than Tomic.

I can't find a single working stream of Petrova Molik. I may be forced to watch mens tennis. Or read another Buffy comic.

I'd probably go with the Buffy comic, but I'm also the one that chose to watch House over tennis the other night. And then mentioned it thirty seven times.

Unless you want to watch this turdburger try to finish off Lopez.

Looking forward to seeing Nadal absolutely rip the turdburger a new one in a couple of days!
Oh, now they're showing Mardy Fish! Did you guys know that he used to be fat?

Hale was extremely unimpressive in her loss to the ghost of Jankovic at the last year's USO, so I thought her career was going nowhere. Even though Kleybanova probably stank up the place, it still took some effort to tak her out. And yeah, it will definitely be on Eurosport. They sure love their Radwanska. I know the Polish market is big and all, but come on. It's Radwanska. Radwanska! The "ghost of Jankovic" made me laugh. |

Ooh, this Bojangles girl is good.
Also, I keep meaning to ask where 'Goo' comes from.

Post by Wagasi on Jan 20, 2011 0:34:21 GMT -5
I think Goo has to do with Kleybanova's blobbiness from a few years ago.
If Bepa doesn't find some magic here, Ste. Kim's next 4 matches could be Cornet, Makarova, Peng/Radwanska and Stosur. Actually Stosur might be a tougher opponent than Bepa at this point.

Dammit. I knew that Cornet would beat MJMS. !!! I hate it!
Oh, hey, we have a Japan-China 3r. Peng-Morita. If Shuai loses that ...
Bojana is blowing Vera off the court. 6-2. From 15-40 down in the final game there, too. I think she hit ... three winners to rally back, right?

Bepa had 40-0 in the 2-4 game and then 40-15 in the next one.

Well, she was good until she started making errors and looking tired. Which was slightly more than a set.
