I wish they would call Gimeno-Traver by his name rather than calling his 'this guy' it's quite disrespectful IMO

The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved. -
Noticed that early on during the Dokic game, she was 5/1 to win in 3 sets and the Italian girl was 4/1 to do so.
I didnt back it, but that match was ALWAYS going to three sets, backing both would've guaranteed a decent profit.
Something to look out for, especially in the ladies matches where, if you're convinced nobody is winning in straight sets, there's only two options to back.Comment

Nah, Dokic was always going to be too good to get duffed in straight sets, i only wish i'd had the time to back it, but unfortunately, i had too much work to do.

Nah to be honest Craig I wish I would have thought of that before that match began could have made a fair bit of money off that, any further tips would be appreciated.The times they are a changin'.Comment

I think that Murray and Sharapova will win it this year. Murray was a bottler a couple of years ago but now he is one of the best fighters out there. From average to excellent mentality. Murray vs Federer in the final.
Sharapova is in excellent form. Can't really see anyone beat her now when the Williams sisters isn't 100% fit.
Wozniacki isn't that good on grass.Stop the cyberhate
from now on I will skip talking about our finances. That is a promise and will save myself from looking like a

I'm going for Djokovic and Schiavone.Comment

I have a feeling Murray is going to make the final this year. Winning it may depend on who he faces... I'd fancy him to beat Djokovic, but not Federer...
His last 2 sets were punishing last night, I don't think there is anything the other guy could have done, despite how well he played for the first 1.5 sets.Modifying post.Comment

Sounds like Barry Davies (?) commentating on the match and a slo-mo replay comes up of Djokovic ... he then goes on to talk about how intently he watches the ball, the concentration, the balance, the poetry ... and then you almost hear the penny drop as he realsies that is the ball Djokovic randomly fires into the crowd *after* securing victory!Comment

Isner and Mahut are at it again. 2 games all in the first set. If it's anything like last year, this match wont finish until sometime on Friday.Comment

Anyone think the grass is slower than say, 10-15 years ago? I think they've deliberately done that to 'even out' the competition. Nadal wouldn't have won that tournament if it was played 15 years ago.Are we winning?Comment

agreed. it had become a farce to be honest during the samprass days but it now feels like it's gone too much the other way and its like playing on a hard court.Originally posted by NigelLG View PostAlways borrow money from a pessimist. He won’t expect it back. Oscar WildeComment

They've definitely made the balls slower over the years.
Are you saying they've genetically modified the grass?
