You are probably right, but I'd love you to be wrong.
I would love anything but an all Williams final, Their father is an idiot!

Re: Tennis Thread


Too often people are saying the favourites will shine through... We've seen so many bow out this year. That's why I tried to pick people outside the top 3 at the start. And although Tursunov didn't exceed the third round, Murray is still in there. Therefore...

Williams vs Williams I agree with, but i'm going to say that Murray will beat Nadal AND make it to the final!

(Btw Turps Serena was taken to 3 and then won emoticon )

A good case, but I wouldn't back it on this occasion. I think Serena has got too much for her and I even think she will beat her sister in the final should it come to that.

My tip for the ladies is out though so i'm not too confident in my judgements in that department.

Nevertheless, save the money and back Serena to win in 3 sets.



I was mocking myself in that I did not get it right again! The big smiley should have been a wink!

Thanks for clarifying that for me Nath emoticon

I wasn't sure so thought I'd check.

Looks like the rain could play a big part today. This could be good for two reasons. 1. It could mean I'm home in time to watch a bit of Murray-Nadal. 2. It could mean Murray can't finish his match today, which will give him a bit more recovery time from his 5-setter.

a) 'Saying the favs will shine through' - well in the mens they are still there (Nadal and Fed).

b) Murray will not beat Nadal, I'd put money on that if I were a betting man.

I know in the womens that plenty of favs have gone out, but for me Novak was never going to win it and certainly not Davydenko (can't believe you had him down as a favourite).
