Not particularly surprised to see Serena out she has been rubbish on clay for over a decade not sure what the fuss about her was before the tournament. Never go off form in crappy lead up tournaments should be the moral from this particularly in women's tennis anyway.
I also think she is a shadow of the player she was ever since that health scare she had and age may be starting to get the better of her.. having said that shell probably come out and win wimbledon now haha

Yeah she seems to lack that killer instinct/competitive edge she used to have. I thought Serena would pull through for sure, she always finds a way to comeback and win, and in the clutch moments she is usually immense. She seems less in your face now as a person which in turn has made her less 'hungry' to win. Heck she seems to give credit to her opponents and takes responsibility for losing instead of blaming it on everyone else. Seems to have become a better person but a less competitive individual after her health scare. Will still go far in Winbledon though.
 
Nice win from Sam there, good that Falconi pushed her a bit at the end, good practise for Petrova. Falconi has very little to hurt her with though, Sam tends to spin these shorter players off the court.

Anyway Djokovic in a bit of a struggle in the second with Kavcic, he's down a break 4-3, but he won the first.
 
Yeah, another solid win over a much less poweful player, now the nervous wait for the match with Petrova on Friday

I'm not sure about Novak, I haven't really seen much of him post Monte Carlo final but it sort of seems he hasn't really lifted his game from then. Without sounding like I've got sour grapes, Kavcic did not have to do much to beat Lleyton.

****, really should be doing homework :(, I'm addicted to tennis.
 
Freaking annoyed. I love watching Berdych, plus Llodra's matches are always entertaining, so I was enjoying that. And they take it off to show Simon, who isn't exactly the most exciting player on tour. :thumbsd:

geez if berdych ever put it together consistently against the top players he would be very hard to beat, immensely talented player, regularly demolishes lesser players in the early rounds with ease, llodra is a tricky player but is struggling against berdych's power. The 1 guy along with del potro outside the top 4 who is capable of winning the tournament imo. Who is this brian baker?, seems to have come from nowhere, made a SF in a lead up tournament a few days ago and seems to be carrying the form on here. Has a pretty decent game from what i can see.
 
Lol nice try, pity the other betting agencies are better....lets not mention for casual punters $150 a month is a rip off!

On the tennis, some good matches. Drummond, I have to say I disagree on Simon as I find his style VERY entertaining but that might just be me. What I don't get is why there is not a "Fox Active" Button where you can pick and choose matches. I am happy with Simon.

Stop the flogging of your agency, we don't care about it- there is a betting forum down below, put your rubbish down there. This is about the French Open. Lets not mention that your odds, like all poor bookmakers will be WORSE than Centrebet for one.

Simon is going to 5.

****, Bernie needs to lift his game, Murray is struggling, could be letting an opportunity go begging here.

Bernie and his bp conversion rate are making me cry. If there's one thing he needs to fix more than anything, its this.
 
I just had a look through all the grass tournaments pre wimbledon and he is only playing Eastbourne. Looks a good chance there too if he was serious as Gasquet is the #1 seed.

I wonder if he will play the first Nottingham challenger, I can't find the list for that, or if he will just rest up after a pretty busy clay season.

Commentators said he's playing Halle?
