Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 22, 2017 Members Share Posted January 22, 2017 (edited) To the Trumpkin, no less! Angie's far from a favorite of mine but I would've rather those quality #1 points go to a player I actually like. Oh well (shrug).

Members Soapsuds Posted January 22, 2017 Members Share Posted January 22, 2017 Misha is barely 29. That's not old. I was so overjoyed that he beat Murray. The announcers keep saying how the courts are the fastest of the three majors minus the French. I was hoping Kei would have won even though Roger is good for the game. Kei blew it....what's new! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted January 22, 2017 Members Share Posted January 22, 2017 I'm not a Fed fan by any means, but I just don't see who stops him from achieving No. 18 in this field. Perhaps an in-form Nadal, who has always troubled Fed, but Rafa will be gassed from his grueling matches. Hope I'm wrong, though. I hate the slavish cult of Federer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SnCCorinthos4ever Posted January 22, 2017 Members Share Posted January 22, 2017 When was the last time that the No 1 seed in both men's and woman's and the No 2 in either the men's or women's' draw in a grand slam event didn't make the quarter finals? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted January 22, 2017 Members Share Posted January 22, 2017 Stan the Man could beat him in the semis. He does have his number. Kei should have won last night/early this morning. I don't think Roger will win number 18. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 22, 2017 Members Share Posted January 22, 2017 Probably Wimblegeddon- that year that a whole lot of players crashed out in the first week, a few years ago. Nothing else comes to mind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted January 22, 2017 Members Share Posted January 22, 2017 This has been the best Aussie Open in ages. It would have been even better had Sasha beaten Rafa the other day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 22, 2017 Members Share Posted January 22, 2017 It's not old but if you're stuck in a 1984 mentality, like McEnroe, you were practically chased into retirement by then. Maybe this will be the year people finally stop taking McEnroe's words as gospel. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted January 23, 2017 Members Share Posted January 23, 2017 I'm doubtful about Stan. He's beaten Fed three times but only on clay. Serena had better up her game. She just barely eked out that first set against Strycova. She sometimes can look lazy starting out in matches. Let's see her try that against Konta if she makes it to the next round. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 23, 2017 Members Share Posted January 23, 2017 There were jokes going around yesterday that her fiance Alexis had better take her dog Chip with him and sleep on the couch for the rest of the tournament.

Members Soapsuds Posted January 23, 2017 Members Share Posted January 23, 2017 I've got Serena followed by Muga and then Vee to win it all on the women's side! On the men's only 1 of my guys is left..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted January 23, 2017 Members Share Posted January 23, 2017 Kim Clijsters and Andy Roddick ...Hall of Fame 2017 inductees. Andy....really?? Won only 1 major?? TC is already pimping him and saying he deserves it.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted January 24, 2017 Members Share Posted January 24, 2017 The NYTimes is also pimping Roddick. I figured he would get in. Certainly, if Michael Chang can, Roddick deserves it. I agree there should be a higher threshold of excellence. Clijsters deserves it for competing so well in one of the most competitive eras in the WTA. It's funny: Roddick, like Andy Murray, seems like a genuinely good, progressive guy by all accounts. But he was such a jackass on court that I can't help but despise him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
