Oh well!! The well oiled machine has started his march. Straight sets without any trouble 6-3, 6-2, 6-4. The wanna bes are trying. Roddick gets by the first round also.

I forgot it started yesterday, but I'm watching on Sopcast now. Kuznetsova vs someone else. Momentum will build up soon.

Vijay Amritraj bets on Aisam Qureshi defeating Marat Safin tomorrow

He looked rusty to me.

The big names are through the second round.

Federer won his 50th consecutive grass court match.

Federer, Nadal, Roddick, Blake, Hass, Dravid kano (Davydenko), Djokovic, Hewitt, Safin all advanced. Henman got the boot even after winning equal number of games. Aisam-ul haq qureshi lost to Safin in straight sets.

Safin vs Federer 3rd round, Safin's got the game to beat Federer... I hope his heads right and he can beat this monster like he did in the Aussie open in 05

Bancan · #8 June 28, 2007, 11:14 PM

if roger is out then roddick has a chance. but thats a big if

Sharapova vs Bremond today... What an EXCELLENT contest in 2nd set.

excerpt From The Guardian Sport:

Quote:

It took 77 minutes but might easily have lasted a lot longer against an opponent who again played well. Brémond returned most of Sharapova's heaviest serves, made only a few more unforced errors than her very forcing opponent, mixed in disconcerting slices and net forays, and played a large number of baseline points with mobility and skill.

Sharapova countered it in excellent fashion, because these days she summons the patience to play long rallies with controlled aggression more readily if needed, which it was. It rewarded her at one stage with a remarkable scoreline of 6-0, 2-0 in what had been a reasonably well-contested match.

Federer defeats Safin to move on to Fourth Round. Decisively according to the scores, will watch it tonight.

For ladies, my favourite Henin is onto Fourth Round too. Hope its a Henin-Sharapova final

Whats with her nagging injury. They say she's only 60% fit. Which is why I dont think it'll be likely.

Watched the highlights of Federer vs Safin. At times Safin gave a good contest, but other times he was thoroughly outclassed.

Tigers_eye · #13 July 2, 2007, 09:02 AM

Huh!! now a bye? Hass pulls out against Federer with a stomack injury.

Nalbaldian is in trouble against Baghdatis. Roddick has an unseed. Nadal, Hewitt crusing.

ammark · #14 July 2, 2007, 04:53 PM

Sweet.... Henin goes to Quarterfinals without having conceded any sets in the tournament yet.

Serena Williams wins, with great difficulty and a bout of severe cramp. Venus Williams is through to 4th Round as well

And wowee.... the Alena (?) Ivanovic, French Open runner up is a real cutie. She's going through too it seems.

Plenty of Rain Interruptions... Nadal vs Soderling is really becoming interesting.

Bancan · #15 July 4, 2007, 03:06 PM

The last set in sharapova-williams match was great. though kinda got one sided in the end.

Nicole Vaidišová is cute too.

Nocturnal · #16 July 4, 2007, 05:26 PM

Henin just beat Serena in QF

ammark · #17 July 4, 2007, 11:05 PM

Sweet. Gonna watch the games now on Star Sports... Sopcast.

Tigers_eye · #18 July 6, 2007, 11:21 AM

Nadal (2), Federer(1) and Djokovic(4) are through to the semis. Roddick (3) is playing his quarterfinal match against Gasquet leading 6-2, 1-2.

In the semis 1 facing 3, 2 facing hopefully 4? Why is that?

Bancan · #19 July 6, 2007, 02:21 PM

Damn Gasquet. He just ruined Wimbledon for me... He better win against Federer. Seems Federer is a big fan of Gasquet.

Nocturnal · #20 July 6, 2007, 02:30 PM

damn! Henin lost against M. Bartoli (6-1, 5-7, 1-6)

Tigers_eye · #21 July 6, 2007, 03:36 PM

I feel sorry for Roddick. 2 sets and tiebreakers?? What's up with that 18-0 run on tiebreak games??

Arnab · #22 July 7, 2007, 04:03 AM

Tiger Woods sends cheeky good luck message to Federer:

cricman · #23 July 7, 2007, 01:03 PM

Theres about to be a new #1 and thats gonna be Nadal, I got this feeling that he's gonna take it from Federer tommorow

Nocturnal · #24 July 7, 2007, 01:29 PM

Wimbledon lifts Venus to great heights again:

Federer the man! no one can beat him. He only loses in the french court to nadal but thats just about it.
