Wimbledon 2007

[ShearMagic9]

Rafa up a set and a break and Djokovic up a set and on serve in the 2nd.

Both were tiebreaks

 

[Drummond]

Wow! Nadal.

I actually thought Berdych would win, and Nadal beats him in straight sets! All the way now Rafa!

 

[Mr P@H]

Butoray are out All down to South & Bogdanivic in the Mixed

 

[Total Power]

Hey Geddy, Nadal was very lucky to win today he is a dud who can only play on clay , how did even win againt Berdych? must be the wind

Are they showing this Baghdatis game on cable? If anyone's watching it, is it a good game to watch or just a baseline smash-a-thon?

Pretty much, we have the option of 6 different courts over here

 

[mr_cellotape]

Well we've got a rugby league post-game interview on our tennis coverage channel, so there

Bloody hell Channel 9...

Argh, this is excruciating. GO TO THE FRIGGIN TENNIS ALREADY

 

[SBI]

God I hope Djokovic loses - how many times can a guy bounce the ****ing ball?

20 times last game.

 

[mr_cellotape]

Bad luck

He was lucky yesterday, was clinical today in his destruction of Berdych. He will swat away an exhausted Djokovic tomorrow. Congratulations, you've turned everyone against Rafa in this forum with your ridiculous posting, now getting stuck into me too. If you continue to embellish my posts you might just turn me against Rafa too.

sorry mate, that was not my intention.I am just sick of everyone calling him a claycourter and not giving him enough credit.FFS for a guy who is a god on clay, he is doing better than any clayourter has done in the history of the sport

 

[gaelictiogar]

In fairness TP Borg was a clay courter. Rafa has a way to go before he can claim to better him. Even Federer has not yet achieved that.

Fire up you cheese-eating surrender monkeys. I want upsets!

i wouldnt say he is a classical claycourter to be honest, cause he had terrific volleying skills

 

[mr_cellotape]

Bartoli

Pity she's gunna get cained by Venus, but still, good game to watch and so well played.

 

[mr_cellotape]

Wow. Awesome stuff from Gasquet. Frenchies' Day today.

 

[red+black]

Bartoli

Gasquet

Good to see Henin gone.

 

[Jono]

Henin, as usual, fell apart when she most needed to be mentally strong. Fancy losing to two-hand forehand Bartoli after winning the first set 6-1 against an inexperienced and nervous player on centre court.

Venus to crush Bartoli tomorrow. The Queen of Grass is most definitely back.

Gasquet has always been awesome to watch, but he just took it up a notch today. Boy it'd be awesome if he could give Roger a run for his money tomorrow. You can watch that backhand all day.

 

[ShearMagic9]

Mens Semis:

Federer v Gasquet
Nadal v Djokovic

Womens Final:

Bartoli v Williams

The should be winners are in bold.

Federer to beat Nadal in the final.

 

[Geddy Lee]

I'm very happy for Gasquet, him vs Roger is much more interesting than Roddick dft. by. Roger.

Gasquet 93 Winners 29 UE

The final is definately Nadal vs Federer, their two respective opponents are fatigued and they are simply better players.

 

[Ricketts]

Wow! Nadal.

I actually thought Berdych would win, and Nadal beats him in straight sets! All the way now Rafa!

What about your man Gasquet Drummond!!! Coming of age and most definately having his breakout tournament.

Hopefully he can keep it going in the hardcourt season.

 

[SBI]
