Ewww, now Tomic is going to win! Can this tournament go any worse for me? :whine:
oK, so what's your worst case scenario, so we can prepare ourselves?Serena def. Venus in the final 62 62, or Sharapova vs Serena in the final Murray def. Tomic in the final 62 62 67 67 60 |

Pironkova marching on  That wasn't even close or dramatic. |

And Pironkova wins 6-2 6-3.
Remember how Vera beat her to reach a final last year? Yeah, neither does Vera.
How far Pironkova is from Venus in the draw? Would be a fun meeting.

I think Zvonareva has started to follow JJ's footsteps.

I think Zvonareva has started to follow JJ's footsteps. For some hopeless reason I still want for JJ to rediscover her form.  I kinda miss her. |

2 forehand mishits by Pony in a raw.

Even all that stubble can't hide Lopez's essential womanliness. LOL, okay. Clearly you have never looked at his body. |

F-Lo over A-Rod was expected. Bepa losing to Tsveti...I am completely unsurprised.
Now, the Petkovic loss to Pervak is surprising, but as Lex said, I'm solely going off of others' accounts of her, so she may not be entirely hopeless (although her results have been languishing in the doldrums for a couple of years now).
Looks like it has been a crazy day. CAKE and Peng and Ma$ha all having fits. Wimbledon might end up being the crackhead Slam for the women like RG used to be.

If Tits can get past Sexa, we'll have an all-P____K 4R.

Tomic won :geez: -- Andreev is so useless (and not a threat). Perv! Lex, I agree one has to be skeptical of pusher allegations fron certain sources. However, I will allow that grass can sometimes make pushers look like Fernando Gonzalez.  Ma. jose.  Bepa.  Nice draw for Gassy. Fais de la limonade, jeune homme! |

Ha, Pony challenged a Simon shot on SP but both players went back to their chairs anyway - but it was indeed out! Back to the baseline! Simon hit such a gorgeous clean BH slice winner to go up 15-30 in that game, it just DIED  |

Annoying for Simon - he thought he'd won that set, but Pony's just held for 5-5.

Watching Roddick now, ugh. He seems to accept that he's not good anymore. He's lucky he has Memphis to keep him above the dregs.
I'm to the point of accepting the Maria/Serena/Fodder/Venus SF, and ignoring SEWTA.

Pony takes the set 10-8 in the TB after saving 4 SPs. What a great set, so close, and it really felt like he stole it from under Simon's nose...

Muller has 2 set points, his backhand was great in this game.
Rafa just saved them. Deuce.
Tie-break!
