Re: Wimbledon 2010
No way of fixing it since the server has such a massive advantage, you could make it first to 20/50 or something but then it's a coin-flip based on who started serving first. I guess some penalty system could be devised where they aim for the ball girls/boys for points. I may actually watch it if that was introduced :P.

Re: Wimbledon 2010
OK - so what do they do with the old balls when new balls are required?

Re: Wimbledon 2010
Steroidena Williams is looking a fair bet for the women's title now.
Mens' draw all top 4 seeds are in the quarter final - Federer vs Nadal in the final with Murray as the wildcard in the mix perhaps?

Long time ago when I belonged to a tennis club, we bought them at a substantial discount.
In those days they came in boxes & scrawled on them was the court which they'd been used on....
Not sure if it's the same today!

He does look a bit out of sorts.

I'm not a lip reader but I don't think he was too happy about that last point

Re: Wimbledon 2010
With Federer getting knocked out and Nadal suffering from a groin/thigh ingury, Murray must fancy his chances of winning the title this year surely?
Please enlighten me if I have been misinformed

Re: Wimbledon 2010
Nadal had no injury as far as I was aware.
Murray is looking like he's following the Henman tradition of choking on the key points.
Not that far from matching Nadal just at the important points Nadal upped the standard while Murray made unforced errors. One major shot also that he just failed with over and over again to the point where Nadal knew what was coming.
EDIT: Just to prove the point for me on match point against him an unforced error into an open court.
He needs to go learn how to hit a forehand so it's not such a huge target for good opposition and get some sports psychology work done, not good enough physically or mentally and he'll rely on Federer or Nadal being injured or below par to have any hope of winning a slam on this form, they are a class above.

Re: Wimbledon 2010
I thought the men's final was tomorrow?
Sorry, my mistake it's Serena Williams. 
She is built like a brick poo house in comparison to her opponent (Zvonareva  ). She is one scary lady.

Re: Wimbledon 2010
And the winner is Serena's PED dealer.
