i'm sure they must have thought of it, but the ATP and WTA has all year round tourneys and a calender that doesn't falter every year. going on a whole month break will no doubt disrupt the calender.
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by tayoast(m): 10:22pm On Jun 26, 2010
There's no way Nadal's winning Wimbledon
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by dominique(f): 10:24pm On Jun 26, 2010

Re: Wimbledon 2010 by tayoast(m): 10:31pm On Jun 26, 2010
^^i'm telling u.
unknowns r already giving him a run for his money (unlike Roland Garros where he breezes past all and sundry)

Wait till Roddick comes his way
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by dominique(f): 10:35pm On Jun 26, 2010

Re: Wimbledon 2010 by Tmoni(m): 9:19am On Jun 27, 2010
I saw Andy beat Giles yesterday,

Ee remain small, i for catch the Andy's wristband

Man, i felt for the Giles guy ooo, the whole centre court was rooting for Andy,
It was all "Common Andy", almost nobody gave Giles inspiration

now lets wait till quarters for it to get interesting
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by DrKitaun(m): 10:00am On Jun 27, 2010
Federer would surely win this, for the females Serena or Venus.

The Premiership is either Man Utd or Chelsea . . . The La Liga is either Real Madrid or Barcelona.
Does that make it boring??
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by tayoast(m): 10:29pm On Jun 27, 2010
Andy Roddick it is!!
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by medjai(m): 1:37am On Jun 28, 2010
^^^what i love about Roddick are his serves. So much power behind them. He has the record of the fastest serve(in terms of speed of the ball) and fastest ace. I consider him to be tennis' Danny Shittu- all power, less technique
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by FOD(m): 2:44pm On Jun 28, 2010
Clijsters beat Henin again.

Federer cruises into the last 8; he awaits Brands/Berdych.
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by jaybee3(m): 2:51pm On Jun 28, 2010
Fed express should start praying that brand knocks berdych out cos d dude is one serious danger man to federer's wimbledon ambitions.
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by MandingoII(m): 4:46pm On Jun 28, 2010
At least there are some BLACK PEOPLE

kicking bootay and taking names.

The williams sistahs are on to the Quarterfinals.

Serena's serve is on point. her footwork - not so much.

Venus got lucky, her opponent DONATED that match.


Good for them, Why are you people talking about White people?
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by mystikal(m): 7:09pm On Jun 28, 2010
This Roddick is a pretender o
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by tayoast(m): 9:29pm On Jun 28, 2010
^^ imagine!!
e pain me ooo.

Go Djokovic!!!
Re: Wimbledon 2010 by Nobody: 9:31pm On Jun 28, 2010
