Sharapova takes another tumble and is really upset to have to play in these "conditions". ETA: While the top players were having fun and winning all of the money on clay, the up and comers were prepping for Wimby. Two weeks vs 2 months is a huge difference! ETA: Roger is about to take the court. This should be a true test of the "conditions".

Lol... Shvedova pulls out and Kvitova gets a walkover!

Sharapova down a set and a break to someone who's grunt is more annoying than hers!

Jo Willy retired from match - just as well. Wimby13 is going to hell in a hand basket very quickly!

Sharapova lost first set. Took a tumble and told the Chair it's too dangerous. That's a bit dramatic! What do the players want? Call off Wimby13? Seems like only the heavy hitters are having a problem. The players trying to break thru are having no challenges. They are making no excuses and seizing the opportunities given. All England Club said nothing is different in the prep of the courts. It has not rained once, so either do it or go home, which is what some are going to end up doing anyhow!

Look at Tsonga! Just searching for ways to blow this match! What a dumb ass! Does he bet against himself?!

Wozniaki out! Many opportunities! Verdasco serving for match. I think I might cry...

Nope, they were not removed because Hewitt's claims were baseless. The surface? It hasn't been raining. Players have difficulty adjusting at Wimby when coming off clay. Players have complained for years that grass season is too short. But this year's Wimby is just weird!

Glad Hweitt is out , and super happy it was a black guy who ousted him. Hewitt is a bastard, and I will never forget him wanting the black lines men removed from his match against Blake many years ago. He claimed that their calls were favoring Blake when there was nothing to support those claims. Can't stand him! Ivanovic out! These up and comers better take advantage of what's happening at Wimby13! ETA: Cilic pulled out! Lawd have mercy on Wimby13! ETA: Wozniaki takes a tumble. Trainers/doctor on the court making an assessment.

Can't believe he's 28. I know Verdasco is going to disappoint me.

Yeah, Na is still in it but she's been really disappointing lately! This is Serena's best surface so good luck to everyone else. I thought grass would be the easiest surface, but many players don't do well here. Serena will probably have about 200 aces at Wimby alone.

She injured herself in Monday's match. Knee swollen. They are dropping like flies, but this gives the others who can't break thru a chance to step it up and gain some points and prize money.

Azarenka just pulled out! Hewitt gettin' his ass whipped by a skinny German with dreds!

She'll be knocked up soon. Kim says she didn't want to put off another child for too much longer. Lindsay Davenport could not wait to start being fruitful and multiplying. She was pregnant at the 6 week check up twice!

Is this really a shocker? She is another weak player who doesn't belong in the top 10 and Laura Robson is a giant slayer (not that Kirilenko is a giant). Too bad Clijsters is gone from the game. We could use her.

All this Rafa shade. Ouch! Wawrinka ousted by Hewitt. The gods must be going crazy. What next?!

Round 1: Rafa down 2 sets to love to the 113th ranked player. This would be embarrassing after the FG win! Sara Errani out - SE being the 5th ranked woman player in the world says this sport is lacking. She and Aga are very weak compared to the top 3, and it's shameful that Stoser, with that 2nd serve, forehand and pythons has fallen out of the top 10. Li Na needs to step it up as well. She's has been playing a very disappointing game as of late. Wozniacki? Never thought much of her from the beginning, and she has proven me right. Prime example of how to become #1 in the world without really trying. Once she stopped playing 200 tourneys a year, it was difficult to maintain a decent ranking. ETA: Rafa out
