- Now, I know that Federer is a genius, but he just doesnt sit right with me, I think the Wimbledon crest and blazer was the final straw for me. I know they say that everyone on the tour loves him and he is really humble, but all i see is arrogance Of course, he is so good, that arguably, he should be arrogant ;0) BUT he's just not my cup of tea,... more

- Predictably, Nadal and Federer have made their way through, Nadal will face Djokovic, what a match up that will be, and I suspect could prove very entertaining Federer will face the French, unseeded player Gael Monfils; he produced the match of his life to be the first frenchman to reach the semis since Grosjean in 2001. He coped with the... more

- Well, well well, Gael Monfils played some superb tennis yesterday to reach his first slam semi, and on home turf too, good for him! He is the first Frenchman to reach the semi since Grosjean in 2001, being unseeded, it is an even greater achievement The French Open crowd were on the edge of their seats, great atmosphere, very reminicsent of our... more

- I quite enjoyed the match between Paul-Henri Mathieu and Djokovic at the French yesterday and it got me to thinking about the pressure Tim used to face at wimbledon French winners at their home tournament are almost as lacking (but not quite!) as British wins at Wimbledon, the last female to win the French was Mary Pierce in 2000, and on the... more

- well, they said that Nicolas Almagro had won more matches on clay this year than anyone, (even Nadal), I knew that didnt bode well It didnt take long to see why his record is so good Murray's tennis at times (first set aside), was superb, but at times, to me he looked a bit flakey, his attempts at the drop shot veered from genius to poor shot... more

- Oh the frustration, Andy Murray is out of the French Open For the first time in this tournament, when Murray, I finally found myself cheering with enthusiasm when he broke back in the 4th set Sadly, he once again lost the momentum, and you could almost say he threw it away At times his temperement looked extremely questionable, and at times his... more

- Well, we all have high hopes of Andy at least making the second week So far, two rounds down, the first one was a bit of a hit and miss match, but his second round against Jose Asacuso was a far more impressive match, and showed all the flair and promise that we know Andy possesses I know nothing about his opponent today, but the pundits all had... more

- Well, it's that time of year, the French has begun, and Wimbeldon is just around the corner I will not be making my usual trek to wimbledon this year to brave the queues, so limited to the TV coverage; thankfully the next two majors are on UK time, and so it is, the telly gets repositioned in order that i can have non stop tennis whilst i work... more
