Yeah I'm about to go to sleep....don't feel like waiting up for the obvious TB.

 

[bksballer89]

I hope these 2 never go the distance at Wimbledon

 

[bksballer89]

Isner does it

What a boring match. Nishikori should have it easy.

 

[cezero]

boring match.

just fast forwarded to the tiebreak in the 3rd instead of watching the whole set.

good for big john to pull out the win. best of luck against nishikori, but i can't imagine isner winning that one.

 

[cezero]

I hope these 2 never go the distance at Wimbledon

i wouldn't watch it unless it were a final.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Kei should win easily unless his own serve shits the bed.

 

[cezero]

for sure

nishikori is my pick to win the tournament. i don't ever count out nole, but he's looked sluggish, and it's understandable.

 

[cezero]

murray is literally standing 3 feet away from the service line to return some of thiem's 2nd serves.

 

[cezero]

Thiem has a great game. That backhand. Wow.

21, though, and still goes through stretches of playing stupid.

sorry to quote myself, but it's relevant for thiem's match with murray right now.

he played a smart first set with few lapses, and took advantage of a rather sluggish murray.

this youngster is going to be a major player in slams for the next 5-7 years.

I just hate that Serena's complaining attitude when things are getting tougher.

As a huge fan, i wonder why she always has that negative attitude when she missed some shots. That's just boring from a great player.

Everyone knows what kind of player she is.. she doesnt need to complain every time she misses a shot. As she said, she has nothing to prove... Right.

But, she cannot win every shot, every game and every match.

It's ridiculous!!!!

Yesterday I turned my tv off after the first set... tired of seeing her becoming too negative.

She always does it when she plays an average player... I never saw her complaining against Sharapova.. She's always quiet and focused.

That being said, She needs to be quiet today and just plays her game like she did in Singapore Final... Halep's serve is too weak. There's nothing to fear.

 

[cezero]

Serena's fine. She was way off yesterday, and still pulled through it. Good to see.

Anyway, great to see John Isner beat Nishikori. I would never have predicted that. Best 3 set match I've ever seen Isner play.

 

[bksballer89]

Wow just saw highlights of Isner....impressive to say the least.

He plays well @ almost all the us hard courts except the us open

 

[cezero]

3 of 5 is just a different animal for the big guy

always has been

 

[Hs0022]

Isner is riding the best form in his life. Ride it to the final.

 

[Hs0022]

Make Fatty Run! Why can't Serena's opponents follow this simple mantra? Instead they get lured into playing the power game. most of her opponents don't know how to exploit this weakness. That is why she is still winning slams despite being just so so fit.

 

[Hs0022]

It's just pathetic. That a 180 lbs possibly pushing 200lbs is dominating women tennis.

 

[cezero]

one of the best players of all time.

tennis fans are lucky to witness it.

you seem like you know and/or play tennis much of the time, and then sound like a dilettante when you post this kind of stuff.

sad.
