    Yep that you do.

    Thanks for the reminder, I had forgotten that it started yesterday for me.

    Found some old photos that I took at the Aust Open some many years ago. If I remember correctly it was Pat Cash & Stefan Edberg playing doubles.

    Please post if you can...

    And here it is

    Sharapova is already down a set! I hope she can pull this out.

    Sharapova is not the same girl who won Wimbledon. She just sucks. I am so sick of her screaming..shirking...lol I dont see her winning the tournament.

    She got it in 3 sets! I saw the first set, she looked very uncomfortable, especially serving. The wind was not doing her any favours.

    Adam beat me to starting the thread...glad you did...I felt like the only one posting on the tennis threads...lol

    I thought there was no wind today? A perfect day for tennis.

    Love this tournament...probably my favorite tied with Wimbledon. Love the atmosphere and night matches. Glad Berdych won today. I wish Ryan Harrison would have won.

    I see Serena winning the women's side. The men's side should be fun to watch!

    I find it odd that Nadal admitted that Novak is in his head. Just like Nadal is in Roger's head.

    There are conflicting reports that Nadal suffered a hair line fracture on his foot and that he wont play the Canadian Open.

    Novak posted photos on his facebook. The gala ball of the champions. He is pictured with his brothers and dad. There are other photos of him and Kavotka...or however you say her name...lol.

    There is a picture of him and his miniature trophy as he heads to the airport this morning.

    I agree Toups...I was hoping Roger would have won Paris.

    Found this short 2009 interview with Anne Sward. She could be interviewed for a short film but ATWT couldn't ask her back. Goutman SUCKS. Lyla is the ONLY way I would have cared about the wretched Katie histrionics of ATWT's last years.

    I tell you Carl she should have come back and slapped the hell out of Katie. It would have made for some good drama. Yes...Goutman sucks donkey balls.

    The commentators in Australia do the same, rev up our Aussie player's in the Aust Open.

    Would love to go to the US open one year.

    Glad that the Aussies won the Junior title's, maybe we have some up and coming players.

    I just don't get why they hype up Murray so much. He is an above average player at best. I think had Del Po not gotten injured he would have been in the top 3 knocking out Murray. I am also surprised that Soderling's game has gone south. I thought he would have been another threat at the majors. He needs to get Magnus Norman back as his coach. He was going to win his first major with Norman's help.

    The US Open should be a good one with the top 3 and Murray, Soderling, Berdych and Del Po. I dont see Andy Roddick doind anymore damage in the majors. His time has past.

    ESPN mentioned the Junior results this afternoon during their Wimbledon wrap up show.

    Thanks Ron! I have always enjoyed tennis, I was disappointed due to my work schedule I wasn't able to see as much of Wimbledon this year as I would have liked. Great to see Novak beat Nadal for the trophy. I really was hoping Murray would have knocked Nadal off (and after that 1st set it looked as if he might...) but then he fell apart.

    That happens to me with the US Open. I'm back at work when the tournament starts so I have to tape it. I was lucky to see all of Wimbledon. I was glad Novak won. I was pulling for him. I am not a Nadal fan. I just dont care for his game. I was hoping either Berdych or Del Po won but I do like Novak.

    I think the commentators make Murray better than he is. His game is ok. I just don't see him beating the top 3 to win a major. His semifinal loses are going the same route as Henman's did. I think for Murray it is all mental. I still dont think he has the game to win a major but his mental block doesnt help either.

    I am hoping to make it to the Aust Open next year, either the 1st or 2nd day. Maybe both.

    Cool

    I've always wanted to go Wimbledon and my dream is the US Open.

    The June 1992 episode that's up is solid from start to finish - even the Andy/Courtney stuff that always bored me. It's so tough to tell when John learned about Aaron but I guess he knew by this time. Does anyone know about what was going on with Susan Marie Snyder/Julie during 1991 and 1992? Based on story, she can't have appeared very often. Was she on recurring, or were they paying her for not appearing? And was Ben Hendrickson on a leave of absence and that's why Hal is gone for a lot of 1991 or 1992?

    Did Frannie ever find out about Jennifer? I am not done with 1992 yet so I guess I'll find out...

    Don't you think Scott and Margo have a lot of chemistry in this scene? I wonder if the show was thinking of going there.

    I also thought they might go the Scott and Margo direction to make the tension with Tom even better but Marland never went that direction.

    I thought SMS was on contract during the time.

    T think Frannie found out about Jennifer after the whole Carolyn Crawford Murder Mystery was solved.

    As for Ben..I remember him taking various leave of absences at the time but I dont recall for what..

    This episode was tough to find on Youtube. I found it while looking for Margo's rape. It takes place right after the masterful scenes with Frannie and Darryl in Switzerland.

    Do you know who is playing Sean at this time and why they recast? He talks like Tonio. Strange casting choice.

    http://www.youtube.c...feature=related

    I loved this Sean. That's Mark Lewis.He was on GL and played Mindy's bf/husband Kurt Corday. He was killed in an explosion on a Lewis Oil rig near the coast of Venezuela in November 1986 He married Roxie Shayne to stay in the US. The marriage was later annulled.

    I hated previous Sean..Burke Moses...he seemed to gay in the role....lol
