Members ChitHappens Posted June 9, 2014 Members Share Posted June 9, 2014 A 3rd set was fine, but I was bored. The men's final was such a disappointment. All I could think of was AO12 and was way too excited only to get that mess yesterday. What a disappointing tennis weekend! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ChitHappens Posted June 9, 2014 Members Share Posted June 9, 2014 Shameful that Delpo is out after surgery and Tsonga continues to fall. This was the chance to gain some ground! Loser! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted June 9, 2014 Members Share Posted June 9, 2014 I knew Tsonga would drop. He had too many points to defend from last years semi run. He could be out of the top 20 by US Open time...yikes... Murray is the one who has lots of points to defend now from Wimbledon. If he loses early he could drop out of the top 10. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted June 12, 2014 Members Share Posted June 12, 2014 Murray loses to Stepanek in 4th round of Queens Nadal upset by Brown at Hallie tournament and Roger wins in 3 sets. Tsonga about to go out of Queens as well...not surprised. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted June 12, 2014 Members Share Posted June 12, 2014 I do like Dustin 'Dreddy' Brown though. He's a journeyman who is fun to watch and was in desperate need of a break and he got a good one today. The transition from clay to grass is proving rough for some this year, it seems. I love grass court tennis but the grind of the schedule in the past few years and the all too disjointed and short grass court season has been killing it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted June 12, 2014 Members Share Posted June 12, 2014 Last year was the same. Wimblegeddon anyone? The seeds were dropping like flies! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted June 12, 2014 Members Share Posted June 12, 2014 Tsonga lost And yes Wimbledon last year was horrible. Nadal has never been that good on grass even though he has won the tournament before. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Gina90 Posted June 12, 2014 Members Share Posted June 12, 2014 (edited) I would not be suprised if Nadal wil lose early again at wimbeldon the last 3 years he barely do nothing on grass Edited June 12, 2014 by Prizzle 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gina90 Posted June 12, 2014 Members Share Posted June 12, 2014 (edited) @soapsuds I always thought Nadal's 2e best surface was grass but since 2011/2012 it is his worst Edited June 12, 2014 by Prizzle 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted June 12, 2014 Members Share Posted June 12, 2014 Oh yes, I remember the great Wimblegeddon of 2013. I also remember the animated video done by those Taiwanese animators. Does anyone else remember this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kFRdSgqjEYI&src_vid=3xb0JdKjm-s&feature=iv&annotation_id=annotation_947395&channel=NMATV 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
