How come no one is rooting for British No.1, Andy Murray? I wish you the best tittle in your career. Federer should go and retire let young uns keep the game going. Though I didn't see Milos Raonic, I hope he came to the tournament.
Isner and Tipsarevic are also my favorites.

Kivitova and Azarenka are my favourites to win. Maria Sharapova should go and retire with the williams sisters.

Santino1: Been looking for this thread.....
well Fredooo, sorry your Serena has been dumped out, since she ventured into that crap she called rap, I know the end is near...I think I'll agree with you on Rafa, though I'm team Fed for life, Rafa is high right now on clay. grin grin grin grin

sure nothing last forever , the williams sisters are close to the end , but never write serena off , she can come out with suprise when people least expect.dont forget the red -soil is never their thing . but it is very disappointing going out in the 1st round , though rezzano played a great match ..
this year winner is between rafa or djokovic , they are playing great tennis . i'm baba twins fan for life too , but rafa is my man anytime anyday .....so anybody that beat djokovic am cool with him grin grin grin grin

I share your thoughts too. To me, he's the greatest Tennisman of all time.

Meanwhile, please does any Tennis-lover in the house knows about the whereabout of these two great guys :
1. Gael Monfils ( French Nationality, a hard-cut/hard- surface player & one of Aces' masters)

2. David Ferrer ( a Spanish & very skilful )

I've been looking for them but no news about them

Monfils pulled out of the grand slam due to a left knee injury which he has been struggling with for Weeks.


Ferrer is going to be on court 1 later in the day against unseeded Benoit Paire from France. The spainiard has this way of shying out against the top 4. age ain't on his side aging though.

i'm still shell shocked that serena lost. I feel so sorry for her...having played so well coming into this grandslam, she wanted to win so bad. You could see that she started crying after she lost the second set. I' rueing her loss still but all credit must go to razzano who kept going for her shots and making williams play on the run to minimize williams' power. Razzano had nothing to lose as she's playing a multiple grandslam winner/champion and also lost her husband/coach last year. She felt she had to give her home crowd a treat and that she did. This will only fire serena up more as wimbledon is just around the corner. Now she must learn to close out matches. She actually led 5-1 in the second set tiebreak...Two more points to go...How could she have allowed razzano win the next six points to win that second set!!!!

Andy, Andy, Andy. I wish for once he'd surprise me. I always root for him, Roger and Novak but only Andy leaves me hanging.

Too bad for the William sisters though.

[color=][/color][/color][color=#550000][color=#000099][/color]. Watch out for agnesia radwanska guys! That gal is playing incredibly agressive tennis! We all can see how she dumped out venus wit an incredible performance! Anytime she able to play her doublefeet back hand, it is always 100% cross court give the opponent no change! And her movement on the court is immense! Wil not be suprise if she won the roland garros!

Another guy to watch out for jo-wielfred tsonga! Playing on a home ground will be an advantage for the talented frenchman! His got an unbelivable forehand, netlevel, ground strokes! And powerful serves! He his surely a man to watch!

Andy Murray is unreliable just as every other average British sportsmen. He is down 1-4 in the 1st set to 48th ranked Jarkko Nieminen. Expect him to make a statement, he just starts playing below par.

mscheeeew!
Re: Official French Open ( Rolland Garros ) 2012 Thread by Nobody: 11:02am On May 31, 2012
Andy Murray playing with injury. Is he going to pull out? Nieminen currently leading by 1 set to 0 and a break up in the 2nd set, 2-1

Honestly if I were Serena I wont play the French Open again after the way she was treated back in 2002 or 2003 when she beat Henin on her way to win 4 grandslam in a row! the fans were so hustle towards her, booing her!!!

you have got to be kidding!!! Right? Venus is dealing with an autoimmune disease that saps her energy everytime she plays and still managed to take it to her towards the end of their match. A fully fit and healthy venus will rip radwanska to shreds. Radwanska probably won't make it into the quaterfinals.
Can't wait for wimbledon and olympics which will be played on grass. There will the williams sisters return in full force. Clay was never their forte any way but still serena managed to win it in 2002. Now that's greatness!

U jus got 2luv Roger. He's just the best and most reliable sports man in his time.
"It's either you are good in clay, hard court,grass or you are simply Roger Fedex". A comment by a tennis great.
Btw,it's simply heart breakin that my crush is out in the first round. No biggie tho,she's still got the doubles to play for.

who are these moderators for god's sake? other more important topics are begging to be on the frontpage, please. There is a thread for NNPC/DPR job seekers whose recruitment hangs on the balance despite being kept on edge for two years. Such are the kind of topics you expect to see on the frontpage not this kind of trash posted by whiteman wannabes. Who gives a shiit about french open this side of the globe.
