I didn't know Youzhny wrote "SORRI" on the court during his match against Fit Dave because of how poorly he was playing!

Heh! I like that. Should've written in French, though. As soon as I dared to get my hopes up for Klara she goes south.

Ok, Na Li surives, I'm thankful. Even though the scoreline of the last 2 sets looks easy, it was anything but. and LOL at McHale screaming "Allez" at one point!

She did? Good for Li. I found out I was much more nervous about her than about Kvitty or Fran, so I guess I like her best -- at least for RG.

I've heard McHale scream "Vamos" - she's half-Cuban IIRC.
Li's navigating potential banana skins fairly decently.

McHale says Allez all the time, even on errors. IIRC, she's an Henin clone, which is why the Cult tolerates the USian.

I doubt that's the reason, if people do tolerate her. For one thing I had no idea of that. For another thing, she's no Henin.

Yeah, I don't think I ever heard her say "Allez" until today, and when she did, I laughed and minor eye-rolled. Also she doesn't play like Henin at all...does she?
I tolerate her because she is harmless to my faves and her stans (if she even has any) are not obnoxious. And I don't really expect that to change.

She doesn't play like her, other than being kinda short and a defender. Anyway, I liked McHale when she was a nobody WC at the Aussie, so I'm not a hater.

Is Haas down a break here? I keep thinking he can win this but I can't sit & watch tennis till later. Just found out it comes on NBC at noon. They'll probably excitedly air a tape of Mashabot.

Queen Maria wins easily again. I hope this doesn't come back to bite her in the ass when she faces a real challenge later on.

Kvitova/Li in the semifinals could possibly take her down if either one is having a good day.
Wozniacki in the QF...okay even I LOL'd as I typed that last one out.

I don't think the final will be a challenge for Maria. Someone has to stop her before that, otherwise she wins.

What happened to Haas out there? Sheesh, did he break a leg but keep playing? Finally thought to check Murray the Wounded Warrior Hero Saint's final score. Please no more reports of him barely being able to move, media. Woz hasn't played yet, Ali? ??

She's going on next on Suzanne Lenglen, now that Haas finished getting double bageled in the end by Gasquet. I think Kanepi has a real shot at the "upset".

Grrr, NBC coverage blocks Tennis Channel's online feed. It's been a while since I've been annoyed with NBC's "You can only watch our pre-taped coverage" garbage.

This stream has a frozen picture on the screen so it's listening to the match rather than watching it.
