good match on

6/7/2013 11:28:24 AM

been listening, pretty crazy momentum shifts

6/7/2013 11:33:58 AM

crazy protestors at the french. One dude ran on the court with a flare and a towel got set on fire. damn frenchies.

6/9/2013 10:56:52 AM

sometimes I wonder if nadal's fellow spaniards lay down for him, just a thought

6/9/2013 10:29:34 PM

Nadal out in the 1st round

6/24/2013 2:26:20 PM

Sharapova out in the 2nd round.

so happy. the rat king falls.

Sorry about Sharapova though, must have been Williams' comments that got in her head.

Federer FTW!!

6/26/2013 1:36:57 PM

Federer FTWL!!

2nd Round

6/26/2013 3:37:31 PM

you used to be king of Wimbledon Fed, what happened?

showin dat age

6/27/2013 9:43:58 AM

man this might be the loss that sends fed in to retirement unless he has a great showing at new york

6/27/2013 5:01:36 PM

this is Andy's year

7/5/2013 4:39:22 PM

I'm sure Sir Alex's advice helped

7/5/2013 4:40:12 PM

the semifinals were no joke, this was like the rising stars of tennis behind nadal/federer, I take it andy won his match?

7/5/2013 9:20:30 PM

^ He did. Djokovic - Del Potro was epic.

7/5/2013 9:29:43 PM

Lisicki didn't get the memo that there was a match today

hopefully the mens final is competitive

7/6/2013 10:19:05 AM

bartoli played out of her mind though, I don't watch her that much but I would bet that was the best match of her career or close, but yea lisicki admitted she was overwhelmed by the moment

7/6/2013 1:14:58 PM

is the joker worn out or sick or what? looks really lethargic, history being made

7/7/2013 11:37:11 AM

good for Andy

7/7/2013 12:26:46 PM

that was sports at its best. pressure. drama. elation. a privilege to watch.

7/7/2013 12:59:13 PM

not only will this boost murray's confidence but he should be a much more relaxed, better player going forward too

7/7/2013 1:04:20 PM

I obviously don't know anything about soccer, but is this as big as if England won the World Cup?

7/7/2013 1:08:28 PM

I think del potro took too much out of djokovic, he just looked like ass today aside from a few moments

7/7/2013 1:13:33 PM

^^

Definitely not.

7/7/2013 1:34:37 PM

^^agreed or he was sick or injured or something, had no energy out there, still awesome for murray though, i think novak wins the us open but hope it's federer

7/8/2013 1:39:52 PM

gg Andy

7/8/2013 3:11:26 PM

is djokovic stoppable? rumors are that he's a machine, but everytime i watch him play his technique is impeccable. he earned this trophy hands down.

i feel bad for federer. novak has his number now. could roger ever beat him again in 5 sets?

1/31/2016 7:14:05 AM

still got to respect how good Roger is for his age, and how generally consistent his career has been, at this point you could make the case that while he won a lot of majors early because the field hadn't caught up to him, now it's come full circle and if it wasn't for such amazing guys like Novak, he'd have a bunch more slams

6/8/2016 4:44:38 PM

maybe gonna stir some shit, but was McEnroe wrong?

I didn't hear the whole NPR interview or read anything about it, but apparently he said something like "Serena is the best women's tennis player in the world",

and the interviewer asked "why qualify it with "women's", why not just say "best in the world"?

and he said "because if she played in the men's league, she'd be #700".

i hardly ever watch tennis and don't know much about it, and 700 is obviously an exaggeration, but is there any question that if she played in the men's league, she would not be at the top?

Not in my mind.

6/28/2017 10:36:41 AM

Looks like Federer is in a great place headed into the Wimbledon semis. He plays Berdych on Friday and if he wins then plays the winner of Querrey v Clic for the championship.

7/12/2017 5:16:38 PM

McEnroe was not wrong, he should have just left it at something like "Because she's a woman, what do you want me to say?"

She'd be around 300-400 at best. There is a huge difference between men and women in nearly every sport. To say this is neither new, controversial, or unfounded.

7/12/2017 11:05:50 PM

he would have been smarter to just say there has been a lot of parity in the women's game in the last 5 yrs, with no real challenger to serena coming close to emerging

and yeah fed/venus would def be cool

7/13/2017 6:31:44 PM

WE BACK

7/4/2018 1:16:51 AM

See Karsten Braasch vs. the Williams sisters ca. 1998 for men vs women and tennis.

7/4/2018 11:08:16 AM

Federer won 35 straight service points against Lacko.

His road to a Wimbledon championship this year will probably be tougher than last year, but that's pretty wild.

^^ interesting, thx.

Quote :

"Another event dubbed a "Battle of the Sexes" took place during the 1998 Australian Open[52] between Karsten Braasch and the Williams sisters. Venus and Serena Williams had claimed that they could beat any male player ranked outside the world's top 200, so Braasch, then ranked 203rd, challenged them both. Braasch was described by one journalist as "a man whose training regime centered around a pack of cigarettes and more than a couple bottles of ice cold lager".[53][52] The matches took place on court number 12 in Melbourne Park,[54] after Braasch had finished a round of golf and two shandies. He first took on Serena and after leading 5–0, beat her 6–1. Venus then walked on court and again Braasch was victorious, this time winning 6–2.[55] Braasch said afterwards, "500 and above, no chance". He added that he had played like someone ranked 600th in order to keep the game "fun".[56] Braasch said the big difference was that men can chase down shots much easier, and that men put spin on the ball that the women can't handle. The Williams sisters adjusted their claim to beating men outside the top 350.[52]"

Dumb commentary, and I don't think the Williams sisters were at their prime yet, but still a good data point.

7/5/2018 12:33:19 AM

djoker looks so skinny as of late, like his elbow injury prevented him from eating enough

anyway prob going for fed again this go around to stay ahead of nadal, don't want rafa getting the record with like 15 french opens

7/13/2018 2:31:58 PM

still can't get over isner complaining about the hawkeye in his last match, screaming "why do i have to accept this??"

i'm unaware of the computer thingy getting it wrong...anyone heard otherwise. and then they replayed the point???

7/13/2018 3:49:06 PM

other than some lapses in focus novak looks awesome so far

7/13/2018 4:27:35 PM

i took time off work friday to watch roger vs rafa

"A question lingering: if Djokovic was claiming a coronavirus positive in last six months as reason for an exemption, when did he get it? According to BBC, his lawyers say that Djokovic tested positive very recently, less than a month ago, on December 16. https://t.co/w1JBE4vFp8 December 16 was a busy day for Djokovic: In addition to purportedly getting a PCR test for Covid that came back positive, Djokovic also was part of a maskless, indoor panel discussion and attended a maskless, indoor ceremony for a stamp being made in his honor on that day. https://t.co/rI9j0rsPJr There’s more: On December 17th, the day *after* Djokovic’s purported positive PCR test on December 16th, Djokovic attended an award ceremony for children at the Novak Tennis Center.

Visa canceled again. I say good!

if he didn't test positive before or when he landed whats the big deal? people with booster changing the new new vid. at some point people have to use logic. instead of...

Now they are just being douchebags about it. They knew they were gonna cancel his visa again right after the judge's decision came out. Waited until today to fuck him over. It's the kind of thing that in US courts would be strongly held against the delaying party.

1/14/2022 9:40:16 PM

Fuck that guy. Australia is pretty hardcore with their COVID measures...which I'm sure you disagree with. But this is on brand for them.
