I like Flavia and I don't like the Williams sisters. Well, Venus is ok, I suppose, I don't care for her game. Serena is the one I really don't like. And their fans are even worse! hellas719 Aug 13th, 2009, 04:48 PM Hi, Jenn!:wavey: I'm Andrew;) hellas719 Aug 13th, 2009, 04:51 PM Happy belated birthday, Sebastien!:aparty: Nice pic:yeah: hellas719 Aug 13th, 2009, 04:52 PM Please win Vee!!! saul1333 Aug 13th, 2009, 04:57 PM I like Flavia and I don't like the Williams sisters. Well, Venus is ok, I suppose, I don't care for her game. Serena is the one I really don't like. And their fans are even worse! Tell me about it. :lol: hellas719 Aug 13th, 2009, 04:59 PM ^:rolleyes: :p saul1333 Aug 13th, 2009, 05:11 PM Obviously not you Andrew :hug: saul1333 Aug 13th, 2009, 05:14 PM The fanatical ones that defend everything. Andreas Aug 13th, 2009, 05:14 PM Flavia :inlove: saul1333 Aug 13th, 2009, 05:14 PM Terrible tb from Vee. Hope Flavia wins. hellas719 Aug 13th, 2009, 05:19 PM Yea, Sam, I know what you mean ;) Nina. Aug 13th, 2009, 06:15 PM Wow, Flavia won. She seems to be in great shape right now. And now I have Kim on TV :hearts: finally some tennis coverage :bounce: oleada Aug 13th, 2009, 06:18 PM Flavia :) :banana: I'm rooting for Sveta. But I think she will lose. saul1333 Aug 13th, 2009, 06:25 PM How could Kim be beating everyone? Christinawww Aug 13th, 2009, 06:31 PM Caro is already in the QF with a 3-0 win over Czink. saul1333 Aug 13th, 2009, 06:33 PM Caro's luck continues. :o Nina. Aug 13th, 2009, 06:36 PM I see Caro is very popular in here :lol: Christinawww Aug 13th, 2009, 06:43 PM well I like her, but I like Vika more, and right now Caro is the one player who can take away the number 8 seeding for the US Open. allrounder Aug 13th, 2009, 06:44 PM We don't mind her as a player or person, we just get frustrated by her luck of getting favourable draws compared to Vika at just about every tournament. Even at the 3 slams she's had much kinder draws than Vika but has not gone as far in any of them. Her 2 title's she's won have been without having to face a top 15 player in either of them and she got to the Madrid premier mandatory final without even having to face a top 15 player too. Nina. Aug 13th, 2009, 06:55 PM yep, I agree. Caro really seems to be lucky very often :shrug: but she's one of the players I am completely neutral about. She's just there but she has nothing that attracts me. So as long as Vika gets that no. 8 seeding I couldn't care less :p VIKA-GOAT Aug 13th, 2009, 08:30 PM I am back:yippee: I thought Vika would have finish the match before I come home:lol: VIKA-GOAT Aug 13th, 2009, 08:30 PM Wozniacki:weirdo: such a:fiery: saul1333 Aug 13th, 2009, 08:41 PM Hey Will, how was it? lover_of_myskina Aug 13th, 2009, 08:44 PM I learned I have been dismissed by Nicolas Sarkozy from the french Vikaland ambassade :fiery: It's not important... :devil: French people has had a so bad behaviour with Vika in Roland Garros in 2009 ! :mad: So i decided now i will be Roland Garros Vika's Bodyguard ! She needs one absolutely ! :lol: Happy belated birthday, Sebastien!:aparty: Nice pic:yeah: Thank you very much :bdaycake: VIKA-GOAT Aug 13th, 2009, 08:44 PM It was great :D I had a great time:p how are you? saul1333 Aug 13th, 2009, 08:49 PM That's good. Meet alot of females? ;) I haven't moved an inch since you left. :lol: Temperenka Aug 13th, 2009, 08:52 PM Sam, can you do me a favor and re-post here the live stream link? :p VIKA-GOAT Aug 13th, 2009, 08:53 PM A couple:p OMG:lol: well Vika going to start:D but Sori lost:bigcry: VIKA-GOAT Aug 13th, 2009, 08:53 PM Is there a livestream for Vika?:D saul1333 Aug 13th, 2009, 08:59 PM No stream I think. Too bad about Sorana, but I can't complain about the result :p VIKA-GOAT Aug 13th, 2009, 09:02 PM congrats :p hellas719 Aug 13th, 2009, 09:28 PM Kim:woohoo: Lena:yeah: / Sori:hug: hellas719 Aug 13th, 2009, 09:29 PM Serena:spit: oleada Aug 13th, 2009, 10:52 PM I'm sad about Sorana but Elena winning is OK by me :) Vika&JJ looks like its been a hot mess by the stats...I've been with a client and just opened up the scoreboard. Dani won :cheer2: Temperenka Aug 13th, 2009, 11:16 PM Is it likely that Vika just double faulted away her number 8 seed for the USO? VIKA-GOAT Aug 13th, 2009, 11:18 PM She deserves it:o saul1333 Aug 13th, 2009, 11:18 PM She has not had df problems for a while. I wonder what was the matter today? If she had an injury that explains it. If she did not :scratch: Hopefully no injury and just a bad day. VIKA-GOAT Aug 13th, 2009, 11:22 PM I even don't want to know what was wrong with her today:tears: I am just too mad:o Temperenka Aug 13th, 2009, 11:22 PM I think I need a break from tennis and this board (I hate everyone in GM :lol: ) saul1333 Aug 13th, 2009, 11:26 PM I think I need a break from tennis and this board (I hate everyone in GM :lol: ) :lol: I am going to take a run for a while to release the anger. Talk to you guy later :bigwave: VIKA-GOAT Aug 13th, 2009, 11:28 PM cya:bigwave: VIKA-GOAT Aug 13th, 2009, 11:28 PM I also think I should have a break from Tennis:o allrounder Aug 13th, 2009, 11:33 PM Wasn't the month break after Wimbledon enough? It seemed like forever until there was any tennis worth watching again. VIKA-GOAT Aug 13th, 2009, 11:44 PM Going to the bed,cya:bigwave: allrounder Aug 13th, 2009, 11:45 PM Night night hellas719 Aug 14th, 2009, 12:31 AM Good night!:wavey: hellas719 Aug 14th, 2009, 12:33 AM Yeah, I took a 6 day break from tennis and went camping. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was, but I guess that's coz I went during the week of Palermo and Prague, and none of my top 50 faves played (Williams Sisters, Vika, Dementieva, Ivanovic, Cirstea, Mauresmo, Lisicki, Vesnina, and Szavay). Ksenia. Aug 14th, 2009, 06:18 PM Anyone here? Hopefully Kim will kick Dinara's ass now :woohoo: saul1333 Aug 14th, 2009, 06:27 PM Hello. You think Kim can win? I do but it would be really bad for Dinara to lose. Ksenia. Aug 14th, 2009, 06:34 PM Dinara is not in her best form and Kim is playing well so I think that's possible :shrug: saul1333 Aug 14th, 2009, 06:36 PM Agree. Kim is playing so well after all this time. Do you think it will be bad for WTA if Dinara loses b/c she is #1? Nina. Aug 14th, 2009, 06:40 PM I think it would be kind of bad if Dinara, world no. 1 loses to a player who didn't play a professional match for over 2 years :shrug: I like Dinara but I really hope Kim wins :hearts: btw, Ksenia, your Avatar is...well...a little harsh maybe? :awww: Ksenia. Aug 14th, 2009, 06:41 PM IDK, probably. On the other hand, Clijsters is former #1 and the fact that Dinara can lose to an unranked players is not as bad as it sounds. What do you think? Ksenia. Aug 14th, 2009, 06:43 PM I think it would be kind of bad if Dinara, world no. 1 loses to a player who didn't play a professional match for over 2 years :shrug: I like Dinara but I really hope Kim wins :hearts: btw, Ksenia, your Avatar is...well...a little harsh maybe? :awww:Check out Ana's forum (http://www.tennisforum.com/showthread.php?t=286615&page=31), everyones has similar ones :sad: Harsh is what she's doing to us fans. Nina. Aug 14th, 2009, 06:45 PM Check out Ana's forum (http://www.tennisforum.com/showthread.php?t=286615&page=31), everyones has similar ones :sad: Harsh is what she's doing to us fans. ok you're right, I guess. I'd go crazy as well if I was her fan. saul1333 Aug 14th, 2009, 06:46 PM If she loses all the ppl in GM will tear Dinara apart. It is not as bad b/c Kim has won a major and was #1, but Dinara is already a questionable #1 player, losing would just make her more of a joke. Ksenia. Aug 14th, 2009, 06:48 PM Anyway it's 2-5 from 2-0 :o Nina. Aug 14th, 2009, 06:48 PM If she loses all the ppl in GM will tear Dinara apart. It is not as bad b/c Kim has won a major and was #1, but Dinara is already a questionable #1 player, losing would just make her more of a joke. But it's GM...it's a :weirdo: place anyway ;) At least Kim is a former champion who is taking her comeback seriously. I think losing to her would be better than losing to some random player ranked #70+ who usually isn't doing anything special and is just having this one great win. But right now things are looking good for Dinara. saul1333 Aug 14th, 2009, 06:51 PM But it's GM...it's a :weirdo: place anyway ;) At least Kim is a former champion who is taking her comeback seriously. I think losing to her would be better than losing to some random player ranked #70+ who usually isn't doing anything special and is just having this one great win. But right now things are looking good for Dinara. Looking very good for Dinara. How long has Kim been getting ready for her comeback? Nina. Aug 14th, 2009, 06:54 PM I think I read somewhere that she was starting to practice really hard after she was invited to do the opening match on the new Wimbledon court because she didn't want to embarass herself. Somtime in early spring, I think?! Don't know if she planned the comeback before that. Ksenia. Aug 14th, 2009, 06:55 PM Since February or so from what I've heard :scratch: saul1333 Aug 14th, 2009, 07:42 PM However long it was, I guess it was enough to play good tennis in her first tournament. Temperenka Aug 14th, 2009, 10:37 PM Vika and Caro have quickly turned from the newcomer darlings in the Top 10 to Slumpniacki and Craparenka. I want them both to get it together before the USO. But I want Vika to be #8. allrounder Aug 14th, 2009, 10:44 PM To be fair though Vika's last 2 losses were matchups which would be extremely tough to win even if she was at her best, it's not like she lost to players she'd expect to be beating 9 times out of ten. It's a bit of justice that she's unlikely to lose the 8th seeded spot now after the fortune Wozniacki's had this season with draws and Vika the opposite. hellas719 Aug 14th, 2009, 10:57 PM I'll get a RIP Ivanovic avy if she does bad next week. I wanna give Kim some more time in my avy:p Temperenka Aug 14th, 2009, 11:01 PM She has really choked these last two matches though, which is very worrying. I'd be more nervous if I were a Caro fan though. I just saw the Dementieva match... she was flat and didn't look to care. Very bad attitude. allrounder Aug 14th, 2009, 11:02 PM Vika's luck hasn't improved much at Toronto either. A potential 2R with Clijsters, 3R with JJ again, QF with Safina, whilst Ivanovic is Caro's toughest pre QF match :mad: hellas719 Aug 14th, 2009, 11:04 PM Oh no:bigcry: saul1333 Aug 15th, 2009, 12:51 AM If Vika loses early in Canada would it be safe to say she is in a slump :shrug: Or is it just bad draws/matchups? She did not choke against Maria, but she played terrible against Jelena according to the stats. allrounder Aug 15th, 2009, 01:14 AM I wouldn't call it a slump unless she loses against Peng who she should really beat and probably Kim too. She could end up going into the USO though only having played a handful of matches in 2 months which is why i'm hoping she plays doubles in Toronto in case she crashes out early to give her more court time. saul1333 Aug 15th, 2009, 02:37 AM I want to go to Canada to see her, but that would be the only reason to. If she loses early :help: Not sure yet. Temperenka Aug 15th, 2009, 02:45 AM I would! Even if she loses, her match against Clijsjters is bound to be a good one. Much like the Sharapova one. :o I still can't believe how bad this draw is. :help: VIKA-GOAT Aug 15th, 2009, 10:59 AM :bigwave: hellas719 Aug 15th, 2009, 02:37 PM Maybe Vika is slumping, but I think it's too early to tell:shrug: She lost to 2 former #1's so... saul1333 Aug 16th, 2009, 02:10 AM Murray is new #2 :o What a joke. If you like him, no offense. allrounder Aug 16th, 2009, 02:30 AM Murray is new #2 :o What a joke. If you like him, no offense. I like him, no offense taken :lol: Ksenia. Aug 16th, 2009, 05:44 AM FFS Fed can't afford having Nadal in semis, Rafa should take care of it :sobbing: VIKA-GOAT Aug 16th, 2009, 10:47 AM Hello:wavey: VIKA-GOAT Aug 16th, 2009, 10:47 AM I can't believe Murray is number 2:tape::sobbing: Igor_Biscan Aug 16th, 2009, 11:10 AM Murray is pusher-tastic, I hope del Potro wins tonight! VIKA-GOAT Aug 16th, 2009, 11:13 AM I'll be rooting for Juan for sure:bounce: but I mean I don't hate or dislike Andy I like him, he's ok:awww: Igor_Biscan Aug 16th, 2009, 11:17 AM Yeah Murray is ok, he has good shots but he is very annoying to watch when he is playing passively. JMDP is one of my favourites in the men's game, I love that lumbering giant! VIKA-GOAT Aug 16th, 2009, 11:28 AM totally agree, sometimes he's boring to watch:yawn: Nina. Aug 16th, 2009, 11:47 AM I love Murray :hearts: so I am happy about the ranking. But I'd like it better if Rafa was still no. 1 and Murray No. 2. Then it would be perfect :p VIKA-GOAT Aug 16th, 2009, 11:48 AM ^^I'd love it:hearts: VIKA-GOAT Aug 16th, 2009, 11:48 AM How are you,Nina?:D Nina. Aug 16th, 2009, 11:52 AM I am fine. A little tired with a headache...probably had a cocktail too much yesterday :lol: but good overall ;) I should study but I am in no mood. It's just too hot. How about you? allrounder Aug 16th, 2009, 11:54 AM I love Murray :hearts: so I am happy about the ranking. But I'd like it better if Rafa was still no. 1 and Murray No. 2. Then it would be perfect :p Same here, people can criticise his style of play all they want but his recent record against top players shows how effective it is. He has good matches to watch too as well as boring ones like every player. I'd much rather watch a player who's likely to bring about long rallies than a big server or a ball basher either crashing winners or unforced errors after a few shots. As a Brit it's great to have someone challenging at the top again and having a realistic slam hope for the first time in an eternity. :lol: VIKA-GOAT Aug 16th, 2009, 11:55 AM I am good, tired like you:p yesterday I went out with my friends and we cameback home at 3 am:lol: so yes, I am tired:p Nina.

Of course, he plays matches which are pretty boring to watch but name a player whose matches are always breathtaking...At least he can create points and a lot of his matches are entertaining imo. I am good, tired like you:p yesterday I went out with my friends and we cameback home at 3 am:lol: so yes, I am tired:p typical Sunday then :p VIKA-GOAT Aug 16th, 2009, 12:13 PM yeah:lol: what are you doing today?:awww: Nina. Aug 16th, 2009, 12:18 PM I just started baking a cake with plums from my grandma's garden. They are so many it's totally impossible to eat them all. So I am making cakes.

He just looks like a miserable git on court. And he's not even cute! ;) saul1333 Aug 17th, 2009, 06:44 AM I can't stand Murray, and it has nothing to do with his game. He just looks like a miserable git on court. And he's not even cute! ;) :yeah: Smart player, but boring as s*it. allrounder Aug 17th, 2009, 11:51 AM I can't stand Murray, and it has nothing to do with his game. He just looks like a miserable git on court. Well to be honest I don't see much difference at all between Murray's on court demeanour and Vika's. They both rarely smile on court and come across as miserable, but it's because they both have that ultra competitive drive in them to be the best, contest absolutely everything and demand 100% perfection from themselves. It's that sort of ruthless streak they have in them which has gotten them both to where they are and without it they wouldn't have got there for sure. saul1333 Aug 17th, 2009, 08:12 PM Anyone watching the track and field championships?

She has a winning personality, and what she is doing for tennis in Denmark is huge. On Danish Eurosport and TV2 (which airs some tennis every now and they) they have a service allowing people to text the commentators. And according to what the commentators read people get up in the middle of the night to watch Caro (eg. the Japan Open final last year) and they don't even know the rules of tennis.

That's great to hear. It'd be nice if Murray could have a similar impact on tennis here in Britain, but the coverage of tennis in this country is pretty awful unless you have subscription TV. I bet if you were to ask a lot of people they wouldn't even know tennis existed for the other 40 odd weeks of the year outside of Wimbledon and the mens Queens Club event, which are the only tennis tournaments shown on normal free-to-air TV. Even when Murray wins tournaments it often isn't even mentioned on the mainstream news. :mad: It's a shame because if tennis was given the right exposure we might actually have more kids playing it and striving to achieve what people like Murray have so far.

Tennis would be nothing in Denmark without Caro. It still isn't big, but it is growing slowly. That's the reason I support Caro. I don't like her style of play, and I can find her annoying at times, but she is such a great spokesperson for tennis in Denmark - we couldn't have asked for anybody better to get to the public.
