Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 31, 2015 Members Share Posted January 31, 2015 (edited) Aww, I thought he was so precious and I think if he can stay healthy and build his game, you could see great results from him in the future. He has a lot of potential and he has a younger brother! You never know, Sweden could be looking at the male version of the Williams Sisters! Venus will be ranked just outside of the Top 10 at number 11! I think that's awesome. She didn't play so well against Madison Keys (who also has a lot of upside to her talent/ability) but I'm hoping that Venus' health can remain stable and she will remain strong enough to train and continue to perform well. Congratulations, Serena! Firmly into the history books now and no one can take that away. Does anyone have video or a photo of Serena hugging the drag queen with the U.S. flag facepaint? I need to see this!! I saw her/him earlier vogueing and singing Staying Alive and just knew he/she would eventually get Serena's attention. I hope someone got video!

Members Soapsuds Posted January 31, 2015 Members Share Posted January 31, 2015 Serena sure is the queen of tennis with 19 grand slam titles and surpasses Martina and Chris. Only Steffi Graf is ahead of her with 22. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members I Am A Swede Posted February 1, 2015 Members Share Posted February 1, 2015 No, Margaret Court is ahead of both her and Steffi with 24 grand slam titles. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted February 1, 2015 Members Share Posted February 1, 2015 The comparisons usually include women from the open era. So it's Steffi and then Serena. Matters not as Serena is the greatest female player to ever take the court. Just ask her rivals and The Commies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members I Am A Swede Posted February 1, 2015 Members Share Posted February 1, 2015 I guessed that's what he meant, and then it would be completely accurate. But I personally always include the pre-open era results, and if you do that then Serena is tied for third with Helen Wills-Moody behind Margaret Court and Steffi Graf. But all this is purely academic. You really can't compare players from different eras, since the game has evolved so much over the years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ChitHappens Posted February 1, 2015 Members Share Posted February 1, 2015 Total meltdown and I loved it. He behaved as cold as Bougie at the net. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted February 1, 2015 Members Share Posted February 1, 2015 I am so tired of Murray's tantrums on the court. They have gotten so damn old! He is an average player at best and only wins because he gets into the other players heads during matches. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted February 1, 2015 Author Administrator Share Posted February 1, 2015 I won $88! Before the tournament started, I picked Serena+Djo to win. Easy money by picking the two favourites. LOL! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted February 1, 2015 Members Share Posted February 1, 2015 I know I shouldn't be laughing at Murray's rants but it was entertaining as hell! And I generally don't get a whole lotta entertainment from Murray's matches EXCEPT when he plays Nolé. People were noting, though that it's kind of rich that Murray is mad at Novak when Murray himself has employed a lighter version of some of those tactics that he accuses Novak of doing. They both do it but to varying degrees. I admit to not seeing all of the match because I wasn't going to get up at 3:30 in the morning. I suppose I can watch the replay on ESPN3 as the first two sets must have been much more entertaining than the final three that I watched. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted February 2, 2015 Members Share Posted February 2, 2015 (edited) Murray is ridiculous. He gave an interview and cites Djoker's cramps as a distraction for him. He implied Djoker was faking so he was unable to focus. What an idiot. I don't like watching his matches, and that has not changed. I wish Nadal was 100% because that would have been the better match. ETA: Murray “distracted,” “frustrated” by Djokovic in #AusOpen final. @Kamakshi_Tandon reports: http://ow.ly/Imrbf Edited February 2, 2015 by ChitHappens 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
