Elson Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 Twice. 2011 got to 3 semis and 1 final of the Grand Slams. Quote
Casino Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 aye, that too it is amazing how hes come to terms with it Quote
maaarsh Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 He grew up on clay - more a comparative advantage issue that everyone else was even more adapted towards clay. Nice to see Rafa drop a set but sadly he didn't oblige with a couple more. Quote
Casino Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 i'm aware of his history im also aware he looked like a fish out of water on clay the obvious slam for him was the us if he did win france, im sure he'll complete a full set before he finishes Quote
Sweep Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 its reet again He's done bloody well, it's a shame that he's got to face Nadal again, I think he's going for his 9th French title. Federer, Nadal, Djokovic & Murray - 4 out and out "winners" all around at pretty much the same time. Incredible. Quote
maaarsh Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 Federer, Nadal, Djokovic & Murray - 4 out and out "winners" all around at pretty much the same time. Incredible. Just think, there was a time when Hewitt and Roddick were regular slam winners. Not sure whether to laugh or cry. Quote
Sweep Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 Blimey, just checked Nadals stats for the French Open.....he's only lost one game since 2004 Quote
Sweep Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 Just think, there was a time when Hewitt and Roddick were regular slam winners. Not sure whether to laugh or cry. I'm not sure Roddick was ever regular, I think he only ever one one. In fact thinking about it, I'm not sure Hewitt won many more did he? Quote
maaarsh Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 I'm not sure Roddick was ever regular, I think he only ever one one. In fact thinking about it, I'm not sure Hewitt won many more did he? Roddick regularly won them once a career - Hewitt twice. Turns out that gap between Samprass/Agassi and Federer was shorter than I recalled. Quote
Guest Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 Blimey, just checked Nadals stats for the French Open.....he's only lost one game since 2004 Wasn't he injured? Quote
Elson Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 I think Federer beat Samprass at Wimbledon. Would like to see Federer win Wimbledon again and then call it a day Quote
Alf Hartigan Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 my sky plus cut out just after Monfils won the fourth set, and it looked like Murray was shot. that must have been some turnaround in the fifth set. i think he'll give Nadal a game in the semi. Quote
jayjayoghani Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 Wasn't he injured? Nah, Soderling was on fire I think Federer 17th GS is his last, unfortunately but I'd love him to win another I simply cant warm to Nadal for some reason. Quote

Guest Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 He must have a chance in the first round at Wimbledon.................. http://news.sky.com/search?term=goffin&fromdate=anytime&order=date Quote
MalcolmW Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 heather watson having a great week but it's over. Quote
Casino Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 shes lucky it didn't end yesterday big boost to the ranking is robson now being consigned to the keothovong pile? Quote
MalcolmW Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 shes lucky it didn't end yesterday big boost to the ranking is robson now being consigned to the keothovong pile? Think Robson is out for months yet, but she is at Wimbledon next week, in the Phil Neville role. Quote
MalcolmW Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 Some win for the young ozzy 4 sets; 13 aces in first, 8 in second, 9 in third, 'only' 7 in fourth, but he did break Nadal's serve. Quote
Spider Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 I've not seen a single second of Wimbledon yet I've seen lots of pictures of sharapova Happy with that Quote
gonzo Posted August 28, 2014 Author Posted August 28, 2014 Andy Murray 7/1 for us open. Worth a punt?? Heather Watson.....she's a bit shit really. Quote
Guest Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 Andy Murray 7/1 for us open. Worth a punt?? Heather Watson.....she's a bit shit really. world top 50; that's pretty good Quote
