250 million watching Williams, 1 billion watching Zheng.
Can't wait for Federer vs Ancic tonight!

And nothing more regarding Djokovic, because evidently I can't change your opinion - and I respect it. He's still my fav though; I love his game.
Haha - go read up on Serena's interview at the Wimbledon website. I found it highly entertaining. I wonder what it's like the morning of finals and the two sisters are battling each other. I could just see them glaring at each other across their cereal bowls. Haha.

♥... Between tomorrow's dream and and yesterday's regret is today's opportunity.

Williamses final is looking very likely at the moment. It would be a COLOSSAL upset if Zheng make the finals. But it's great that two Asian women went far this year, disposing the top seeds along the way. WOOT!
C'mon Federer, click into TMF mode now! If Rafa gets passed Murray, the semi's going to be against either Schüttler or Clement. *groan* How did Roddick lose that quarter again?

streamed his match live because NBC wasn't showing his match.
I really hope to see the Williams sisters go against one another.
should be a pretty interesting match.
I'm pretty impressed with Zheng.
I don't think anyone expected her to do as good as she did.

where are you streaming it at? i have no clue why espn isn't showing wimbledon any more on my tv and i'm trying to find another way around that.
although there's been a rash of upsets, i'm still excited for the later rounds on both sides....i feel like i'm getting to know tennis for the first time again or something lol

TMF vs Safin! It's going to be amazing! The cool, calm, & collected vs. the needing-anger-management. ^^; It would be a lovely Independence Day for me if Roger won
And just as I thought, as well as many, it's going to be a Williams sisters final! GO VENUS! HAHA. XD

Actually I'm watching Serena's match against Zheng right now (re-run)....I found out my channel is showing Wimbledon at different times than the ones that are posted so no wonder I've been missing out....

i saw this comment at the wimbledon web and someone said that with fed serving aces, rafa can't return??
i see soo many players serving aces and big serves,it irritates me! haha like karlovic and roddick!

Anyway GOOD LUCK TO ALL ESP RAFA

"To beat Federer, you have to be Nadal and run around like a rabbit." - Marat Safin.
Love itttt. Really looking forward to the match.

Rafa would have to take advantage of every point he can because that's what Fed seems to do best: coming through when he needs to, to win.
AND HOORAY FOR TMF! WOOT WOOT

GO RAFA.
