gyde:i think he was and he did, anyone else wish, the days of Boris Becker, Andre Agassi, Govan Ivanossivic, Pete Sampras would come back, the tennis these days is so one way it's not funny, |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by tkb417(m): 12:36pm On Jun 22, 2010 |
28Schweet:all the people u listed all dominated tennis when they were on song Becker did b4 Agassi, Agassi took over and handed over to Sampras while Sampras handed the baton to Roger Federer from the look of things, Nadal will take over soon |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by gyde(m): 12:47pm On Jun 22, 2010 |
tkb417: I would disagree with that part in bold,Nadal can not dominate the way Roger or Sampras did,Yes,he dominates on clay-which is played for only 3months within a calendar year,what happened the rest of the year,the moment he is outside clay he is not soo dominance,any player could take him on and win,a point proven by Lopez at queens. |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by medjai(m): 1:50pm On Jun 22, 2010 |
^^^yeah, you are right. Nadal is only good on clay and playing those masters series. Outside of clay, he doesnt exist |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by tkb417(m): 3:04pm On Jun 22, 2010 |
we shall see soon |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by gyde(m): 3:34pm On Jun 22, 2010 |
Stosur,what happened?,my bet was on you to go far, Blake,from BREAKING BACK to BREAKING OUT,think u should retire |

There's no constitency in female tennis |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by gyde(m): 4:49pm On Jun 22, 2010 |
It appears so,that doesn't seems to be the problem with the male counterparts as Nadal muscled his way through in straights sets |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by A40(m): 5:42pm On Jun 22, 2010 |
medjai:But he has beaten Federer at Wimbledon and the Aussie Open to clinch both titles and have the supposed G.O.A.T crying like a biaaaaaatch. A win at Flushing Meadows is all it takes for him to complete grand slam sweep and you are here yarning opaks |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by medjai(m): 10:59pm On Jun 22, 2010 |
just 2 grand slams on grass when we have 3 grand slams on grass in a year. |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by Borat1: 11:03am On Jun 23, 2010 |
Tufiakwa!! Dominique modify your second post ASAP!! Federer cant be world no 1! |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by gyde(m): 11:31am On Jun 23, 2010 |
Men chill,Federer is seeded number 1 for the Wimbledon Championship |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by dominique(f): 12:30pm On Jun 23, 2010 |
gyde: thanks for clearing that Nadal remains ATP no. 1 |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by jaybee3(m): 12:36pm On Jun 23, 2010 |
medjai:wrong hard court = 2 clay = 1 grass = 1 |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by medjai(m): 12:42pm On Jun 23, 2010 |
^^^expound your point, please. Anyway Fed still is the favourite for this one. He has a 76-2 record on grass. His second defeat on grass was at the just held Halle Masters. |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by medjai(m): 12:44pm On Jun 23, 2010 |
@ jay bee K, i get ur point. US Open is hard court, i made a mistake. Which other one is hard court? Aussie is grass |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by jaybee3(m): 12:50pm On Jun 23, 2010 |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by medjai(m): 1:46pm On Jun 23, 2010 |
^^^noted |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by KennyG6(m): 1:52pm On Jun 23, 2010 |
medjai:Not true Nadal has won 7 grand slam titles and lost in 2 wimbledon finals 5 french opens(clay court), 1 wimbledon (grass) and 1 Australian open (hard court) which for a guy with a dodgy knee is some feat, |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by medjai(m): 2:03pm On Jun 23, 2010 |
^^^ i know clay is Nadals forte. I was comparing Nadals form outside clay to Federer's outside grass. Federer has played in 5 Aussie open(hard court) finals and won 4. Played in 4 French open finals(clay) and won 1. Played in 7 Wimbledon finals(grass) and won 6 and played in 6 US open finals and won 5. |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by gyde(m): 2:11pm On Jun 23, 2010 |
I think what started this argument was whether Nadal would Dominate the way federer did, and I said he cant!, cos,yes he could dominate on clay but he cant on other surfaces,yes, he has won a slam on grass and on hard courts,but can he win 6 on grass like Roger did?, he has also won a slam on hard,but can he match Federer's total 10 slams on hard courts (Us open and Aussies)?, He simply cant achieve that cos he really isn't that dominance on other surface like he is on clay, |

FedExpress to deliver as usual. I have my money on you |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by mystikal(m): 5:08pm On Jun 23, 2010 |
Federer is struggling too much in these early rounds. maybe he is trying 2 prove like you lots are saying, but I hope his luck doesnt run out on him. He is making Llija look like a top seeded player. |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by mystikal(m): 5:24pm On Jun 23, 2010 |
omo, who is watching the Mahut/Isner game, Its stretched into 6 hours o. What a game. |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by eldee(m): 6:50pm On Jun 23, 2010 |
It's not 7hrs 38 mins . . . 40-41 |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by harmeenut: 7:25pm On Jun 23, 2010 |
Tha's officially the longest in Tennis History Fed is getting weaker day by day. Thnak God he's made it to the next round sha. |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by coolguyz(m): 8:03pm On Jun 23, 2010 |
we may be up for another interesting grand slam. . . . davydenko is not finding it too easy wt brands. . . .quite interesting. 1 game apiece and the 3rd set is like a ding-dong thingy. |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by FOD(m): 8:47pm On Jun 23, 2010 |
These guys would just collapse, if they don't stop play. How can one play for more almost 7 hours non-stop? |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by eldee(m): 9:02pm On Jun 23, 2010 |
FOD: These guys will die in that court. |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by adtyor(m): 9:51pm On Jun 23, 2010 |
i believe federrer and serena would take the day. |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by mystikal(m): 12:38pm On Jun 24, 2010 |
Tsonga is getting fat men |
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by gyde(m): 2:41pm On Jun 24, 2010 |
The Scot is giving the Queen something to cheer ,its been long since he played this awesome,sharapova is also having a good tournament,her decibel level still quite low, |
