The women's tournament should be just as interesting with all the comebacks.
Well, lets be honest its not gonna be Dinara Safina is it. She's "the number 1 who doesn't win slams" of course
Henin!!!!
She's so awesome!!!!!!
I voted her before I saw the draw, but now that I did I'm positive Serena has it in the bag.
She just lost to Dementieva, and her leg is somewhat injured...
Henin!!!
I really hope she can do what clijsters did, and she's like well rested and stuff, so..
I'll probably have to record most of the matches because midterms are coming up =(.
ELENA DEMENTIVA, She is the woman who can beat Serena.
I honestly think Serena will be eliminated in the 4th Round.
I'D LOVE for it to be Dinara Safina or Justine Henin, but that will happen with much hesitance so I best not put my hopes to high..
Hey, In a way if Dinara is the 'number one with no slams' then how about Jelena [Jankovic]? I don't recall her winning any slams. It really is amazing how they run up the rankings list so fast :/
Dementieva? She's going to meet henin in the 2nd round...
Henin has like an 11-2 record or something so I think Henin has a shot.
Dementieva's out now though.
I have a reason to watch women's tennis again! Maria Kirilenko....ooohhhh yeah...
Cause, listen to her speeches and what she has to say, she says things that most players wouldn't have the courage to say, oh and not in a 'good' way either.
Her behavior to other players in several cases, is disrespectful. When she was versing Jie Zheng, Jie Zheng pumped her fist cause she thought the point was hers, Maria thinking it was out pulled a smile across her face and almost rolled her eyes, and same thing happened in the Safina match, similar events for Sharapova too. Maybe she doesn't see her behavior as inappropriate - but that only shows her arrogance furthermore. If you think that her beauty makes her a good person, then I don't have much to say..
Oh, and Lawn Tennis, AHAHA, yes, actually the country I was born in has cows as their major god so I am well aware of that, thanks. eat a cow and face persecution 'LOL'..
i like Kirilenko's game. she hits the ball with authority for her size. i think her biggest milestone will be to overcome her lack of confidence during big moments. it doesn't happen every time, but when it really matters, she falls apart. not that i'm a Kirilenko expert but i saw a few of her matches during the USO when she made it to like the 4th round.
As for court manners. what i've seen of her does not imply disrespect toward her opponents. who knows though, maybe i'm looking away at the wrong moments.
I think I see what Robyna is talking about, but I don't think she does it in rudeness. She is a small girl stature-wise compared to most of the bigger, more muscular girls on tour. I am sure that she heard about that quite a bit coming up. She gets down on herself and mopes, shrugs her shoulders, talks to herself, rolls her eyes, etc..... I think she does it more out of embarrassment when she is losing. That will go away with some time hopefully.
AlexLogan- And that's what counts! Oh, and by the way, when you said 'ohhhh yeahh' in post # 17 were you trying to do a Quagmire impersonation?
Lawn Tennis- Yeah, she's a excellent player. Never mentioned she wasn't. Cheers to her for getting to the 4th round. Still a cow when it comes to court manners though.
tennisking1- i think it's more so out of bad temper and arrogance.. either way, it SHOULD go away for the better of her.
The final's coming around!!!
Lol, its at 3:30, and I have 2 go to karate at 9, so I might miss it.
I'm going to root for Henin, but its probably going to be really close..
