When his head is in the game, he's probably the best out there.
Great, great, great game. 5 sets, great players, I hope Safin goes all the way now.

Hewitt just saw a glimmer of hope

Roddick and Safin can overpower him but they are erratic. Hewitt thrives on pressure and emotion and there'll be loads of that in the next couple of days. Should be interesting!

You might want to change the title header. There may be some grumpy American tennis viewers after you

P.S Best grand slam for a long, long time - for both genders!

Hmmm, if they're coming here for tennis news, that's their problem lol...
Yes, you're right about Hewitt thriving under pressure, especially against Roddick, but he's going to have to get past Roddick and his powerful serve first and he looked worn out against Nalbandian. I think Safin just did the impossible, but I would rather see him playing against Roddick, I think he has a better chance against him. I'm just glad he's in and Sharapova, or Maria Full of Grunts (good one), is out.

I'd never count out Hewitt. He's like the Energizer Bunny - he keeps on going on... and on... and on... and on... (you get the picture).

Poor Roger... I've just realised I rather fancy him Maybe it's that European impassiveness. OTOH Marat is just an oaf.

Roger is a class act and has tons of talent. It was really a great match. Interesting to notice that his girlfriend, besides being his gf, is also his manager. Is that the definition of put your money where your mouth is?
Marat is hot and stupid. He has to lose all that bling bling tho...

Partners and managerial duties don't mix - if/when you split relationship-wise, oh dear...

Good tactic by the girlfriend though The claws are hooked in!

I did notice the bling bling. How can you play with all that shit dangling around your neck? I guess it worked for him tonight! Maybe the gleam distracted Roger on key points.

Yes, interesting to notice the top 4 seeds made it to the semi-finals. Another day of getting up at 6:30 am for me tomorrow...I have to enjoy while I can, next week it's back to work, ugh.

Marat has all of the physical tools to be the next Pete Sampras. However, the mental is... I am proud that he was able to show how good he could be.

As for Roger...This guy has no weaknesses. He has a chance to be the best tennis player to ever walk the planet earth.

[CamrnCrz1974]

Damn...Marat, Hewitt, and Roddick are still alive? Three hotties to choose from!

Federer is just unbelievable, but I believe his right arm bothered him today, he had a physical therapist give him massages while Safin was in the bathroom lol
I like Safin because I don't and I can't like icebergs like Federer (and Sampras before him), but you have to admire someone that good. He has so many different weapons and strokes, perfection, for sure, he can do anything and everything.
But as I said, Safin is hotter

I'm not grumpy! But yes, a result once again given before the match was up here. Right now they're in the second set, Safin up 5 to 3. To me, it's just like someone telling you how a book or movie ends while you're in the middle of it, there's no longer any point in finishing it. To that end, yeah it kinda sucks. Guess I just need to stop coming here to check on b-ball info (not Tennis BCBG, lol) while watching the matches. I just had to though, because this whole Swoopes thing has really piqued my curiosity and I wanted to see if there was anything new. If only I could see her in a Libs jersey, but alas, that aint gonna happen!
