Wimbledon is only a day away and with defending champion, World Number 1, and my Hero, Rafael Nadal out with an injury, i just hope to God, World Number 3 Andy Murray wins it. Because i'll simply "die" if Roger Federer does. |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by Nobody: 6:29pm On Jun 21, 2009 |
Nadal isnt playing so my interest has waned a bit. But i'll be looking out for Federer winning this one. In Nadal's absence though i think i'll be switching some support to my beleaguered fellow - Djokovic. |

Go go Fed  |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by FOD(m): 6:37pm On Jun 21, 2009 |
I just hope he doesn't disappoint. It's been long he did well in a tournament when he's considered the favourite. @iice . . . what are u doing here? |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by Nobody: 6:39pm On Jun 21, 2009 |
Go Novak!!! |

Grizzly, How can Andy Murray ever win a Grand Slam? How can any English man ever win a grand slam in modern day tennis? Go Federer!!!! ROGER that!!!! |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by Nobody: 6:51pm On Jun 21, 2009 |
dayokanu: Dont be surprised, Andy will win at least one . . . i think he will get lucky pretty soon. I doubt he can win on grass just yet though with a fit and healthy Federer and Nadal. |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by Grizzly(m): 7:17pm On Jun 21, 2009 |
@dayokanu, When was the last time an englishman won at Queens? Well Murray just did. Andy Murray is the most improved player going into this tournament. Thats y i'm tippin him. I dont really like him. I'd prefer novak. But i dont fancy novak's chances against fed. But if novak should win, Perfect! |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by sirwebs(m): 11:14pm On Jun 21, 2009 |
U guys are dreamers. Everyone knows Fedex is the best tennis player of all time. He just needs one more slam for the record books. Roger that!! |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by dayokanu(m): 2:35am On Jun 22, 2009 |
We are talking about Grand Slams you are mentioning Queens? What is Queens? A hood in New York? Wimbledon? Roger that!!!! |

| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by eldee(m): 2:00pm On Jun 22, 2009 |
I'm not sure but if Roger wins this he might jump to Number One in the ATP rankings For that reason and for the fact the Andy's Brit . . . GO ANDY!!!! |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by Sauron1: 2:04pm On Jun 22, 2009 |
dayokanu: Dayo, are u a stark illiterate? Andy Murray is NOT English. . . . . . |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by debosky(m): 2:05pm On Jun 22, 2009 |
| DK goofs again. |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by jaybee3(m): 2:07pm On Jun 22, 2009 |
eldee:If he ma man fed express wins wimbledon then he will surely zoom to the top where he def belongs. Andy's best chance of a slam is at the US open. |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by Grizzly(m): 2:10pm On Jun 22, 2009 |
~Sauron~: Well i guess its ok to say he's "English" |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by Sauron1: 2:12pm On Jun 22, 2009 |
Grizzly: He is NOT English but u can say he's BRITISH!!! Call a Scottish bloke English and get your face punched bluish-blackish!!! |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by netotse(m): 2:18pm On Jun 22, 2009 |
~Sauron~: all join! |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by dominique(f): 2:50pm On Jun 22, 2009 |
a williams sister will prolly win this one too. . . all o know is that Wimbledon wont be the same cos my beloved Rafael is out   |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by gyde(m): 5:37pm On Jun 22, 2009 |
eldee: Sorry to burst ur bubble,but if Federer wins,and am sure he will,then he will become world number one again,i have done the points calculatons and I am cork sure |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by rasputinn(m): 8:13pm On Jun 22, 2009 |
Such a shame,Rafa will not be defending his title |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by rasputinn(m): 8:20pm On Jun 22, 2009 |
~Sauron~: Andy Murray is a British Scot,just like Alex Ferguson |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by tommyex(m): 10:31pm On Jun 22, 2009 |
As long as any Williams wins i am fine, i dont think we will have any fine match from the guys, bt i hope Murray does well, maybe some entertanining guy lyk bagdatis |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by sirwebs(m): 6:15am On Jun 23, 2009 |
Injuries come with the territory. When Fedex had a horrible stomach virus induced 2008, Nadal flew to No. 1 . Roger that! British Scot? Is that an official expression? |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by rasputinn(m): 9:33pm On Jun 23, 2009 |
sirwebs: Sure man,from the latest edition of Rasputinn's NL advanced encyclopaedia Just kidding,I'm sure the original expression being in italics will readily answer your question On the other hand,such a shame my man Rafa couldn't make it |
| Re: ~Wimbledon 2009~ by dayokanu(m): 6:32am On Jun 24, 2009 |
British, English, Scottish all join Is he not from that part of the Globe? Which British last won a Grand Slam. Its like they packed all the duds and idiots in the world and crammed them into that Island |
