No Wimbledon Thread?

That Canadian bird is fit

Which one?

Eugenie Bouchard.
I prefer our own Laura Robson personally.

Seems I read the draw wrong, Djokovic plays Dimitrov, Fed plays Raonic. Best case scenario for Rog is he gets by Raonic and Dimitrov goes through hell edging out Djokovic. The final all proves too much for Dimitrov and he plays like poo.........then plopeater eats it.

I'm just happy Nadal is out. Likable kid and great tennis player and all..... but I don't like fact he's threatening Fed's career Grand Slam record almost on French Opens alone.

[Mark TKO]

If his body holds out I think Nadal will end up with more slams than Federer.

I think they will defo go down as 1 and 2 in greatest all time list (Djokovic could even threaten that) but given Fed's record across all surfaces I'd put him ahead

[TitoFan]

I think you're right. On French Opens alone, Nadal should be able to catch Fed on the alltime list. I don't see anyone threatening Rafa on clay anytime soon. It's almost become a psychological thing. What? I'm facing Nadal in the French Open? I'm doomed.


You're right on Djokovic as well. He's young (like Nadal), and the only threat I see to him winning a handful of more majors is Murray.... and I still don't know whether Murray has the mental resolve to be much of a threat.


Fed's # 1 as far as I'm concerned also. He's held more records for longer time than anyone else.... and if you look at the historical ATP rankings, he's come back from being unseated at # 1 to reclaim the spot not just once, but on several ocassions throughout a long time period.

Not wishing to add a serious note to your perving but Robson was higher ranked til she was injured. She will get to the top. Only 20.

Ivanovic is clearly the loveliest looking looking female player and I will not discuss this matter further.

I'm sick of this Wimbledon now. I have had nearly two weeks of late sleeping and it is playing havoc with my mind. The womens final is okay as it will be a couple of hours max, but Federer, I am ordering you to win this in 4 sets maximum. Then I am done with sports except boxing for the year. The World Cup, I really couldn't give a toss about. I'm not staying up all night to watch a bunch of long haired, overpaid nancies flopping around on the floor. Boxing is a sport that puts things into perspective. They go down when you fuck them up, whilst these football players dive at the faintest hint of non contact. Tennis players, both male and female, are more man than any of these football players.

Go Federer!!!

Kvitova was fantastic. A final finished in less than an hour! It was perfect for my bedtime! She also played very well, just far too strong and accurate for the young Canadian who didn't look very good at all. Kvitova has the potential to win a lot more major titles if she can stay focused and positive. With Williams on the way out, there are only players like Sharapova to be concerned about. Other women players like Na etc seem to be on the slide or else unable to step it up.

Federer v Djokovic is a classic so far.
