my darkie for the women's is sharapova, she's looking very good. oh, and she's playing well too.
on another note, i want to highlight my hatrid and disgust for (some) americans. why? well there have now been at least four instances of stupid americans accusing Karolina Sprem of cheating in the 2nd set tiebreak against Venus Williams. you either know what happened or you don't.
Serena Williams: "As a competitor and a professional you should be able to distinguish between right and wrong. So if I were in that situation, I know I would make the right choice. "
Andy Roddick: "Personally I'd have trouble just taking a point from someone. I've heard no one noticed but if it's the biggest match of your life, I'm figuring you know what the score is. But I'd have a real issue just pretending nothing was wrong and just taking the point."
The other two instances were some discussion on the cable channel Fox News that accused Sprem of cheating and saying that it was her first opportunity to beat a top 10 player, and she'd do whatever she had to do to win.
And lastly, some discussion on ESPN's Pardon the Interruption.
So, to all Americans that think you deserve everything to go your way, be it in wars or sport or whatever else you think you rule the world in, go and get you know what.

Mens round of sixteen:
Federer (1) v Karlovic
Moya (9) v Hewitt (7)
Mayer v J Johansson
Grosjean (10) v Ginepri (27)
-----------------------
Henman (5) v Philippousis (11)
Malisse v Ancic
Spadea (30) v Schalken (12)
Popp v Roddick (2)
Looking forward to Hewitt's and Scud's fourth round matches.
That second quarter is awfully weak. I guess Grosjean will become a GS semi-finalist for the fourth time.

Rain delay.
They have 2 singles matches to go.
Pascual V Farina Elia are in 3 sets.
Pascual won the first 6 - 2
Farina Elia won the second 6 - 4
They are 0 - 0 in the third with the score 40 - 30 on Pascual's serve.
In other other match.
Golovin won the first 6 - 3
Gagliardi won the second 6 - 2
They are currently 3 - 3 in the last with the score Deuce on Gagliardi's service game.
You would think these 2 matches will be wrapped up in 20 minutes as soon as play resumes.

Mens quarter finals:
Federer (1) v Hewitt (7)
Mayer v Grosjean (10)
Henman (5) v Ancic
Schalken (12) v Roddick (2)
The womens draw still has half the fourth round to go. Not sure why they're behind the men.

Here's a pretty safe prediction: Henman to lose in the semi-final against Roddick in four sets.

Henman will again lose in the semis. Federer v Roddick in the final.
Sprem wins again. Maybe she cheated
Sharapova will make the final, and hopefully win it.

Definitely prefer Andy Roddick over Federer for many reasons.
But as much as I want Andy to win, the reality is that he most likely will not. BUGGER!
ETA: So glad that Sharapova def. S Williams. Pretty darn good tennis.
