who thinks federer can two-peat as aussie open champ? well, obviously im hoping so ;) and sharapova for the girls?

i hope federer can finally win the french open this yr and finish a grand slam... but first up, the aussie open :D

[kdotc]

federer is too good..i think this years he'll only lose like 4 times

[alact]

my fave female tennis player already lost, so no use to continue watch..... hmm i guess i could watch sharapova's match just for the eye-candy ^^

my fave female tennis player already lost, so no use to continue watch.....

who's ur favourite female player then?

update: nadal loses to gonzalez, and hingis loses to clijsters

[goo wak jai]

Sharapova is my favourite girl tennis player... i liked her when i saw her win wimbledon a few years ago.... and where is sharapova ranked in the world rankings? 1st?

[dot]

yup she's gonna be first... and i heard federer's gonna be first thru february even if he loses all his games til then just from all the pts racked up from last yr XDXD

update: serena williams vs. sharapova in the finals... sounds like a replay of sumthing that wud have happened two yrs back ^^

[dali_llama]

i am roger federer's biggest fan! so obviously, i'm rooting for him =D

damn andy roddick for beating him last time they met..pshh!

[dot]

and federer rules roddick again... i like watching them more than nadal... prolly cuz roger comes out winning more of these ;P

[goo wak jai]

haha another sharapova and serena williams match....
I want sharapova to win -cool
And Federer won Roddick easily...
well i saw all this on tv just then lol

[mnicc]

Hope to see a good match against Gonzales. Otherwise it will be another roadkill. ;)

[dot]

sigh... can't believe i cant watch federer try to win this one ^^ but i hope he does, then try for the french open... i want him to get that grand slam! lol

update: serena williams is the female champ... guess she's back to form, and we'll hear more of her in upcoming finals... 3 hrs or so til federer and gonzalez go at it!

[mnicc]

Gonzales put up a great fight but Federer was just too good. He now has 10 GS titles.

[kdotc]

serena is ranked 81 sharapova is number 1....wat a defeat

federer is too much to handle

[quan]

federer is the bomb!

[goo wak jai]

Gonzalez did alright against federer in the first set... but in the end he lost in straight sets...
And how the hell could Sharapova lose by so much man....

[Logy]

i feel sorry for the current mens players, they would be better changing sexes, its works for the williams sisters over the years

[dot]

^ ooh... there's a dig at the sisters... but i like the europeans nehow, so its all the same to me:D im sure nadal wouldnt take it so extreme as to change sexes, but then again, i hope federer wins the french open, and nadal's probably going to be at the other side of the net

[kdotc]

i think sharpova's los to serena is her worst lost

[mnicc]

what is federer's next tournament?

[peachey]

TADA, 10th grand slam for Federer http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/5ce3609d.gifhttp://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/80c22808.gifhttp://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/5ce3609d.gif
7-6 6-4 6-4 AND as an added bonus, won the grand slam without dropping a set http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/e56fa316.gif

And he didn't cry this time when he got the trophy http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/5133631e.gif

federer is the bomb!

I completely agree. http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/0062d359.gif *stares at signature which was originally supposed to be my avatar :(*

That makes the 2 of us http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/dbdefa9d.gif

I'm still recalling his "emotional" win last year at Australian Open. From "sheesh, he's so arrogant and cocky," it suddenly became "omg, he is, like, sooo cute." http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/db67634a.gif

But even more so, I still recall his 5 set loss to Marat Safin the year prior to that. I was absolutely devastated, so I was rather glad that Andy Roddick took out Marat Safin... a pretty good match actually.

Anyways, Federer's and Roddick's 6-4, 6-0, 6-2... http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/irked.gif
I was so disappointed that Roddick didn't put up more of a fight, but Federer, what can I say, he was brilliant http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/inlove.gif BUT, I had hoped to see at least 4 sets, not a bagel http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/db67634a.gif

This was actually the most intense I've seen so far this year at the Australian open.
I half died when Federer went down 2 set points O.o but luckily, he pulled through http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/0062d359.gif
my fave female tennis player already lost, so no use to continue watch..... hmm i guess i could watch sharapova's match just for the eye-candy ^^

hm, I thought guys watch Sharapova for the legs, although personally I think Anna Kournikova is 100 times hotter than Sharapova, and definitey not as flat chested. http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/366e5e41.gif

I was originally rooting for Clijsters. Sharapova's shots are great- a lot of pace- but I have yet to see her in her last few matches play anything BUT hard and flat and frankly, it gets boring. The only thing that changed was that her screams went up and down in pitch.

Anyway, I'm not so interested in Women's tennis, though I think it's hilarious watching two women play, where one screams like Sharapova and the other grunts like Serena Williams http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/1d531b16.gif

I don't see the hype about Sharapova and how she's the new Anna Kournikova, because frankly, I've always thought Anna was very attractive, but Maria very average and particularly when you compare their figures.

what is federer's next tournament?

French Open Finals http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/57a6abf2.gif

^-lol
It's annoying when the girls scream in tennis man... some are so manly like s. williams who roars... I don't know who Anna Kurnikova is but my fav female tennis player is still Sharapova... she's young... alright looking... and she's ranked first in the world -cool

lol, that's precisely why I'm more interested in Men's tennis. http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/0062d359.gif And no, it's not only because I like Federer http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/tearlaugh.gif

Yeah, I was actually cheering for Sharapova in the match against Serena.

I had a feeling Serena was going to win, even though I like Sharapova a tad more. Sharapova from what I've seen, gets through by hitting harder than the other player, but against Serena, it's obviously not the winning tactic.

Anyways, I think Hingis is pretty nice looking. Maybe not the most beautiful, but she's not an eyesore definitely, she's not too hard on the ears either. http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/db67634a.gif I prefer her variety in her game compared to Sharapova's endless 'hard hitting'. Makes the matches more interesting. Pity's the other women have all muscled up so much that she can no longer really compete with their power.

it should be alot more -lol... the first match i saw Sharapova play was like 2 or 3 years ago... when she beat S. williams in the finals... can't remember what tournament it was... but i think it was wimbledon.

2004 Wimbledon I believe http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/366e5e41.gif

Has anyone noticed the big improvement in Federer's (and many other players') English? http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/1a8e49b9.gif Must be from all those interviews after winning the tournaments, but I swear there was a time where he could say pretty much nothing except, "yes, it was good game. I enjoyed it." http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/db67634a.gif

[phistyle]

federer is a GOD...wished i could play half as good as him....

lol i never watch the interviews... so i wouldn't know how they sound like... oh yeh it's embarrassing when decisions are made wrong during a match. When Federer was vsing gonzalez they made a wrong decision and federer was arguing back lol

[peachey]

federer is a GOD...wished i could play half as good as him....

I absolutely could not agree more. http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/cac93218.gif All my friends think I'm crazy, but seriously, he is THE best tennis player at the moment, as well as the hottest http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/80c22808.gif

I mean, compare the players physically, Federer's body is hotter than any other player on tour, including Nadal.

Then compare the way they play- Federer plays beautifully. Very graceful compared to say, Lleyton Hewitt and also Andy Roddick, who er, seems to fall over occasionally http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/366e5e41.gif

In conclusion, Federer wins hands down http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/401/Smilies/0062d359.gif

when u scream u get more power i think...when i spike in volleyball or slapshot in hockey..sometimes i would scream...releaseing anger therefore more power lol

[lynxd]

serena williams looked good on the upset against sharapova in the australian open finalss..

[dot]

i think peachey's a BIG federer fan ^^ i think the best matchups are when roddick plays federer... i love the comment he made in wimbledon 2 yrs ago when he lost after federer played incredibly (as usual, lol) about how he threw everything and the kitchen sink at federer and federer came back with a tub :D nehow, roger's getting mighty close to sampra's record... and he's only 25! it's scary, how good he is ;)

[mnicc]

roger's getting mighty close to sampra's record... and he's only 25! it's scary, how good he is ;)

I thought after Sampras got his 14th, it would take another generation before it would be surpassed. With Roger's domination, we'll see him break that record soon.

Speaking of Sampras, he'll be playing in the over-30's seniors tour.

[dot]

on the girls side, i agree with peachey... i wud prefer to watch hingis or henin-hardenne play... the way serena williams plays just aint pretty, period.

federer is hot, so is roddick ;) nadal is not. seriously, he's not even close. no way.

[Silent111]

all time favourites:
pete sampras and martina hingis!

right now i'm rooting for andy roddick tho sometimes i'm not sure i really like his attitude lol
