I like Lisa Raymond. She's old but she's got some skills, and she's a terrific doubles player

^I think I'll join that support group too. sad.gif sad.gif sad.gif

I'm pretty sure he's retiring after the US Open. I HOPE.

Ahhhhhhhhhhh. He was sooo close in that first set tie breaker...When was this match played? They're showing the match right now. I thought it was live until I came here.

*edit* Wait, wtf. Venus lost too??? This sucks.
Life is friggin' fantastic.

And Andy Roddick's out too. sleep.gif After all those chances to break in the first set....lovely.

Federer is 53-4 this year. 4 losses....to Nadal. If Nadal beats Fed on his best surface....I think my whole world will collapse =*(.

The balls are bouncing much higher in this tournament than in the past, plus it bounces slower. This grass court tennis is looking awfully a lot like clay court matches. Despite not being good on grass, Nadal is probably finding this kind of grass court tennis right up his alley. Plus his draw was relatively easy (at least compared to Federer, whose draw seemed stacked against him).

Nadal's playing pretty well, but I honestly don't think Rafa will get a slice outta Feddy this time. Maybe a set...
But definately not a match.

If he does...I will...I dunno...I'll just be shocked

I second that!

Am happy for Jonas Bjorkman to be in the semis, but he faces Fed Express next.

Ooh, didn't know Martina Hingis is dating Radek Stepanek. huh.gif

wait. what huh? Martina Hingis and Stepanek? Love-love connection? (hardy har har...bad tennis humor)
But I'm very happy for bjorkman as well. He seems like a really great guy, and it's nice to see him playing his best tennis at an age where most athletes are retired. But against Feddy...ouch. What a welcoming to the SF's
