2010 Wimbledon (Week 1)

Re: 2010 Wimbledon

The French?? They're very...on the fence when it comes to Nadal. I mean generally they support him, but not nearly as much as some of their other favourites. Didn't you hear Uncle Toni about how he thought the French had never really treated Nadal nearly as favourable as others.

I understand what you are saying about all the other favorites. But i mean more then not they will be cheering for him unless like you said he comes up against a Federer or someone like that.

Svetlana, nobody likes a sore loser!!!!

Re: 2010 Wimbledon

I didn't see the match, but I don't blame Svetlana, Rodinova was probably carrying on during the entireity of the match and probably did something to cause it, Sveta is a nice girl so I'm sure there's something. Rodinova is a b**** anyway, she's an Aussie but I couldn't really care less. The British girl should of finished in the first round.

Little surprised they put Hewitt/Monfils on CC, not because it isn't a good matchuip, but Monfils was struggling with his knee the other day.

Few fun matchups tonight, Henin/Petrova, Clistjers/Kirilenko, Roddick/Kohlschreiber (3rd round at a slam again ), Lopez/Melzer and of course Isner/De Bakker

Lley Lley will cruise to victory.

Re: 2010 Wimbledon

I can see Roddick/Kohls going 5 sets(again)

 

[OzBomber]

Re: 2010 Wimbledon

What time approximately will Lleyton be playing tonight, and what time is Isner playing?

 

[damochandler]

Re: 2010 Wimbledon

geez the way isner and mahut started last night. it looked like they could go another 118 games. they played 3 5 set matched in the 5 set and the hit over a 100 aces each. what a match

while that was going on there was 3 other matches that were in the 5th set. something strange is happening this year

Re: 2010 Wimbledon

There's always a ton of five setters when big servers meet at Wimbledon, because grass is so conducive to their game. Greg Rusedski played a couple of marathons in his time, as did Ivanisovic.

After Petrova v Henin which starts at 10pm (EST). Could go for 3 sets, so maybe midnight.

Re: 2010 Wimbledon

I'm seriously dying to watch a Rodionova match. She sounds like she has incidents in every game, would be great viewing. She recently had an argument with fellow WTA lunatic, Rezai in the warm up before their match even started in Eastbourne (I think).

Re: 2010 Wimbledon

I really hope there's no match fixing going on with all these five setters, especially not the Isner-Mahut game.

As if there would be did you see Mahut at the end of the match?

Re: 2010 Wimbledon

Well Isner has fallen in a heap. Lost the first set 6-0 and already down a break in the second.

What would you expect though? He's played 4 days in a row, there is no way that he could back it up in one day.

Re: 2010 Wimbledon

Again credit has to go to Isner here, a lot of other guys would of retired in this situation.

What do you mean? Im talking about Mahuts reaction after he lost because Gazza 11 was saying something like i hope matchfixing was not involved.

He's more respected than Novak Djokovic ever will be.

Sorry quoted the wrong post.

haha, yeah I know. It's just all a bit of an anticlimax. I still feel sorry for Mahut

Re: 2010 Wimbledon

Isner out in straights. Poor bastard must be absolutely spent. Tipping he will probably go back to the hotel and sleep for at least as long as the match against Mahut!

Think about it, he retired in a semi final at Wimbledon due to fatigue. Isner who must be at least 10 times worse off, is still playing through and its only the 2nd round.

Re: 2010 Wimbledon

John Isner is an amazing bloke. Signing autographs even when he lost. Good on him for even turning up today. But he's still got doubles to play!


He'll be popular at the Aus Open next year.
