Wimbledon

[woodie]

Federer to win and I'd pick Grosjean as a possible dark horse.

Have a feeling that Roddick may have learnt a lot from last year and could do it this time round, certainly has the power anyway. May be going out on a limb here but Serena Williams to win the ladies.

 

[woodie]

Oh gawd. 2 Votes for Henman and I wasnt one of them.

 

[An Tarbh]

When will people accept that Henman won't win Wimbledon, his best chance was 2001 but the gods smiled on Goran that year.

 

[St Helens RLFC]

Come on Tim!

 

[Wally]

'Come on' Lleyton, your Australia's only hope.

 

[woodie]

Federer has certainly been the most impressive so far.

Roddick has been as powerful as ever, but looks a bit out of sorts with his ground strokes

Henman is not playing well but is through to R3

 

[An Tarbh]

Pretty comprehensive win from Hewitt over Ivanisevic in his final match at Wimbledon, final match full stop.

 

[Wally]

Philippoussis is through to Round 3 and Hewitt to Round 4. I think Puss is facing Henman.

 

[woodie]

So much rain that 'People's Sunday' is back tomorrow.

Well, Henman has seen off Mark Philippoussis by three sets to one.

 

[woodie]

I thought it was very un-Henman-like to win the 4th set. Quite impressed actually.

He's playing someone Ive never heard of in the QF. Looking forward to Federer v Hewitt.

 

[St Helens RLFC]

As long as Hewitt loses. Can't stand the crater faced, arrogant, obnoxious pushy *******, or his ugly girlfriend.

they are my picks too. did anyone see Philippoussis lose his rag at the umpire before the tie break in the third set? that was hilarious. The commentators kept apologising for all his obcenities and profanities. lol

Henman is more of a ****** than Hewitt. She's not that ugly anyway.

P.S. What's crater faced?

After being given a code violation, he walked back to the chair and yelled at Molina.. "I should give you a code violation, because you suck, you're not looking."

To be fair Poo had every right to complain about the first two calls.

 

[woodie]

Kim Clijisters is very very ugly.


Federer and Grosjean both on course.

Not that you're biased or anything.

There are more attractive sealions than Kim Clijsters.

Crater faced - his face has more pock marks than the moon.

Can you honestly tell me that Heman is not a ******? And what on Earth is a pock mark?
