Really enjoying this year's Wimbledon. The trumvirate of top male players are all superb in their individual ways. Generally I find the women less exciting to watch as there is a lot of baseline slogging rather than the finesse you get from the men. However I like Serena's attitude and the player I've taken to most this year is Tamira Paszek of Austria. Really gutsy player who knocked out Caroline Wozniacki (I've probably misspelled that) in Round 1.
One thing that is beginning to get right on my nerves, though, is the ridiculous slow handclap every time there is a Hawkeye replay when a call has been challenged. What's that all about? I know it's been going on for a while but, seriously, how stupid does it sound?
Performance of a lifetime. Rosol ranked 100 in the world! Has created an opportunity for murray to get to the final. I think its now or never for that wimbledon title.
I only just saw this because of the footy. We only need Federer and Djokovic to go out now for Murray to have a chance of winning.
Chances are one will knock the other out as they are both in the same side of the draw. I'd make djokovic odds on favourite now but it still might be the best chance murray ever gets.
Davydenko, Karlovic and Baghdatis followed by R4: Cilic/Raonic/Querrey, QF: Ferrer/Del Potro/Roddick/Nishikori, SF: Tsonga/Fish, F: Federer/Djokovic is still a pretty damn hard draw.
Of course, with Nadal's omission it's much easier but still, a lot of hard work ahead.

Women's tennis is rubbish, but I like that Sharapova.
TimAndy!in any other generation he would have multiple Slams
The crowds do make me cringe, laughing at the tiniest/lamest things.
I find the women's more interesting...
Andre Agassi -"in any other generation he would have multiple Slams "
TimAndy managed to win then.Chris Solly lookalike......only taller.

So confident and not fazed by the occasion at all.
