US Open Thread (Tennis)

[C-Lo]

I guess I'll start the thread. Who do you guys got winning? Or what do you think about what happened last night, even though nothing crazy really happened yet?

[skel1983]

I dont really catch much of the first couple of rounds on tv, just look out for the results. I think this has come way to soon for Nadal in terms of finding his way back from injury, obviously Federer looks the best bet, the way he despatched Murray and Djokoivic in Cincinatti looks good for the top seed.

Cant see past Federer i reckon we have a repeat of last years final, i hope Djoko/Roddick meet in the quaters I reckon that will be a cracker, Roddicks probably playing better now that he did when he was a grand slam winner and world number 1.

I was gonna start a thread earlier about this but it slipped my mind. I'm gonna say it again like I always do I'll be routing for Roddick he really impressed me with his showing at Wimbledon hope he can keep it going in slams and do well again.

I really wouldn't be surprised to see Murray take it either hes been playing very well on hard courts this year.

[C-Lo]

I want a new US Open champion. Not that I don't respect Federer but I think it would shake up the tennis world.

I agree with SKEL that this tournament came too soon for Nadal. Mix that plus the Open is Nadal's worst major, it doesn't look good for him.

I would like to see Djokovic break through his mental lapses. He has been the only person to win a major besides Nadal and Federer in quite some time. I think he has the tools to do it but his damn head gets in the way.

I like Murray's intensity and I think he has a great chance at winning this tourney. Last year was his first final, if he makes it that deep again this year, I think he's taking it regardless of who he's playing.

And of course I gotta pull for who I've been pulling for all the time. Roddick's starting to look like a top 3 player again (I know he lost to Del Potro twice, but I think he matches up well against Andy). I always said he has the potential to win another major but now he's showing shades of it. I hope the crowds support will carry him, but his draw is sick! In order to get to the quarters he would have to beat Isner, Hass, and Verdasco!? How did he end up with that situation?! It would be sick if he is able to win in that case!

I'm with you re: Roddick he's busted his ass and has come so close, I'd like to see him spend some time at the top.

As for the women, well I pick Elena Dementieva who beat Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova in Toronto recently impressed me. Of course anyone that beats drama queen Williams impresses me.

Anyone catch the Murray match last night, was wondering how he looked?

[BIG H]

My seedings

1.) Fed
2.) Roddick
3.) Murray
4.) Nadal

Think it's too soon for Ndal, hence having him number 4. A fully fit Nadal would be Number 1 for me!

[C-Lo]

Anyone catch the Murray match last night, was wondering how he looked?

Murray looked OK. I caught the match every now and then but the scores were closer than they had to be. Murray had a bunch of passing shots on the run. Other than that, it was usual Andy Murray.

Did anyone else see Nadal's haircut? His hair looks exactly like Federer's!

Federer and Serena Williams win again

Maria Sharapova looks as hot as ever in those short skirts, wow

Sweet Lord the things I would do to Sharapova! Ivanovic, Dementieva, and some other lesser known girls I've seen play in this Open would get it in the worst ways from good 'ol C-Lo too.

I do see Serena winning too. She rolled over her opponent today. I think she's dropping a little bit of weight and it's only going to make her better.

[Gandalf]

Murray preferably, Federer otherwise.

Haven't managed to catch any of the games so far due to messy time difference and work schedule. Will hopefully put that to rights over the next few days.

Sharapova is pretty damn hot I was watching her the other day and was like dammmmn.

Sharapova is the loudest screamer on the tour. Every damn shot. That shit annoys the hell outof me. I'm sure if she was with me she'd wake up the whole neighborhood.

Think Sharapova does that while getting banged? I would love to be able to confirm this!

WADE, I did the same thing last night. I changed it over during Serena's match. I watch the women's game if there is nothing to do, but I'm more interested in the men's matches.

[leftylee]

I would do time in jail for the things I'ld do to Maria Sharapova. That girl is fukking fine.

Ivanovic and Dementieva would get it too.
