Australian open - Day 13

[pepsi]

Should be a great final tonight, with 1 woman claiming a well deserved maiden grand slam title. The men's doubles should also be a cracker after the singles match is complete.

RLA schedule:
Boys final on now with petr korda son playing.
Next up is alcott vs the no.1 seed in the quad wheelchair Singles.

7.30 halep vs Wozniacki

Then the men's doubles
Marach/Pavic
(7) vs Cabal/
Farah

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

I will be barracking for Halep but I have a feeling Wozniacki will win.

I think Cabal and Farah will win the men's doubles.

Tipping Woz, thinking a Halep meltdown.

That said, wouldn't be surprised if Woz lost the plot. These two aren't the most stable tennis players.

 

[StillAtLarge]

Looking forward to this. Expecting a 3 set thriller

 

[darklake]

Barracking for Woz. Though both girls deserve a slam. Halep's guts in the semi-final was amazing.

Here’s an article designed to outrage feminists, very obvious from the pictures they use what their insinuating

Halep should sack her agent/manager, that's dreadful by them.

Go Halep, its not that I don't like Woz just prefer Halep plus I love Darren Cahill I think he is an exceptional coach.

 

[JamisonRun40]

I love Molik she is such a happy person.

 

[vaughany]

Halep in 3. Should be a close battle.

I agree but their obviously trying to paint the big evil corporations not seeing her as marketable because she’s not as attractive as Wozniacki.

Seems a strange angle to take when shes not exactly unattractive. Seems more like shitty management

Why a Halep meltdown? She has toughed it out in two long three setters already.

My concern is that Halep will have run out of steam having had such tough matches in the lead up.

 

[Wolfs]

I want Kerber to win....Can we reverse time?

 

[JamisonRun40]

I don't think Halep will have a meltdown, I think she has gotten over all that and Darren would not tolerate it. I read that Halep wanted a better deal and Addidas wouldn't give it to her. Bad on Addidas Hale p is the No.1 player in the world and I agree she is not unattractive at all.

 

[vaughany]

Either way if Halep wins tonight, someone at Adidas is getting the sack for not giving her another increased sponsorship contract last month.

God almighty. I hope the players hit the balls better than that woman hit the notes.

 

[Acinath]

Woz looks nervous, Halep the opposite and looking pretty calm at the moment.

 

[armpit]

I was going for either of these two. Halep deserves it after her gruelling matches and Woz after her impressive comeback, so for me, it's the best man wins. I can't choose. If one of them wore purple then...

Only because she's prone to it. Really, they both are.

 

[danstar]

Should be a 3 set 3 hour thriller halep in 3 12-10 in the 3rd is my call

 

[JamisonRun40]

I hope this isn't a long match as I have to go out just after 6pm WA time.

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

Fair enough. She's been good in this tournament but I am worried about the cumulative effect of her long matches. If Woz wins I won't mind Hopefully we get a good match though

 

[Wolfs]

Basil is calling?*

 

[JamisonRun40]

FARKKKKKKKKKKKK, NOOOOOOOOOOO NOT BASIL. I feel so sorry for Sam Smith.

I hope she proves me wrong (and you too) and goes well, she deserves it.
