Nadal is my favorite player so it never bores me when he's in the Finals of any tournament.

If I had to root for any of the big 4, it's Djokovic or Murray. I'm a big supporter of the underdogs.

Djokovic was #1 in the world until tonight's loss. And was for 2 years. How is he an underdog?

Poor sentence construction Thunder, poor sentence construction......

Nadal, former two time winner to four straight losses to opponents ranked outside the top 100. That's somewhat baffling.

Federer and Nadal are getting old. Nadal is breaking down.

 

Any of you play tennis? I tried it out 5 years ago while playing in flip flops drinking a six pack with a buddy and 10 dollar rackets.

 

Since that day I've played at least a couple times a week, more sometimes. I've been on teams and play ladders.

 

Tennis is a bad ass game. Picture standing in a batters box and someone firing a 130 mph fastball at the ground in from of you that is going to spin off the ground funky and be on your left of right and you have to hit it back.

I played tennis once and that was enough to convince me it was not for me. I had an absolute killer drop shot, but I couldn't return serve. Like, every time I tried, the ball sailed and hit the fence at the back of the court.

Someone check if Serena is actually human or a cyborg. Her dominance is unbelievable.

Serena vs Venus was almost as disappointing as Mayweather vs Pacquiao. I stopped watching after the first set to go play golf.

I sincerely hope no one put money on Venus, because that would just be throwing it away.

Serena will go down as one of the best female athletes in our time, and is a true warrior.....

 

Love her or hate her............ she is a total badass.....

The Williams sisters have always scared me. They look like the Predator from the original movie.

 

They are larger and stronger than all of the other women players too. They are very skilled.

 

I wonder how they would have fared against Navratolova.

Dats...racist?

 

Her final opponent talks a good game and anything's possible but I reckon she'll be lucky to win a set off Serena, even though she dropped one to Heather Watson.

 

My money is on Djokovic for the men's.

Time for Federer to retire. Nothing left to prove, but he simply can't beat the top men anymore.

It was nice to see the crowd completely on his side. But yeah, he's the Tiger Woods of tennis, minus the awful reputation that Tiger gave himself.

[Northern Star]

See ya, Djokovic.

[SoxHop]

See ya, Djokovic.

 

Beat by a USA guy............. who is that guy?

 

Makes me wish I had a TV... Tennis is effin bad ass........ the great players are amazing to watch..........

[Northern Star]

At first I thought the guy was a total outsider, but he was the 28 seed, 41st in the world.

Some morons in the crowd at Zverev/Federer semi-final have no knowledge of the rules of tennis.

Andy Murray is calling it a career after Wimbledon. Three GS aren't bad, maybe he should have had more.
