I'm guessing Mahut 6-4 3-6 7-5 4-6 7-6(739-737)

Wonder if they will have them on centre court for their rematch?

My prediction for the tournament winner is:

Novak Djokovic

Grass isn't his best surface, but grass wasn't andre agassi's best surface in '92 either. Breakthrough tournament for the Djoker.

zvonareva just dropped second set


*thank goodness for espn3 at office..

 

[orange+white=heaven]

no prob in the third...

For a moment there I thought Michael Russell was going to utterly destroy my Racquet Bracket. It's not over yet but I don't think he stands an ice cube's chance in hell of coming back from 2 sets down against Nadal.

According to this article, it's very likely.

wanna see how the surface is acting before I'll take him over Federer. If there is any pace to it, Fed's the guy.

Hold here McHale... don't let this keep going.

 

[orange+white=heaven]

attagirl!

Murray has run into a pretty solid Spaniard. Dropped the first to Gimeno Traver.

 

[orange+white=heaven]

Murray in early hole.. drops first set.

she made me a fan today.

Wimbledon grass playing slow on the first day isn't a good sign for Fed. Then again, he made it to the final at Roland Garros...

 

[Co. Aytch]

I got to quit betting tennis...Thought Murray would get Gimeno by 10 games.

Hell no. He is in a fight for his tournament life. Two people I know was picking him to win this damn thing. lol.

After the first week it burns in. If rain does not become a big factor, he'll be okay.

Players say the courts are generally slower than they used to be anyways...so there's that.

Murray's always getting caught in these trap matches for some reason.

 

[MphsBlues]

I guess the question is now, is this the kind of guy that just goes away after losing the second? Some do, some don't.

With the roof on, I'm guessing he sticks around... that roof slows things down.

I've played some indoor... always felt i could hit the ball a ton.

 

[MphsBlues]

LOL. Then again, Murray could just wake up. He does have another gear...

 

[MphsBlues]

Looks like a combo of both. Murray stepped it up and Gimeno going for winners when he is lunging for the ball doesn't help his case. But I agree, OWH, the indoor game makes you feel like you're hitting like Sampras.

:good!:

Damn, stepped out for a minute and he woke up. lol

Serena in trouble in second set
