definitely Wimbledon again. He could win one or two more. At one point I was hoping he'd get closer to Steffi's 22 & golden slam but that's not gonna happen ...

On the other hand though I'm thrilled he's still playing so I have someone to watch. Andy bowed out quickly without fanfare and it worries me that he could just up and quit. I have the same problem of not really having anyone else I enjoy watching. I'll probably watch some of the US Open final if there's a chance the winner can beat Joker. Maybe this is Murray's chance to get himself a slam.

I missed almost all of it MuseRider Aug 2012 #10

No, I think there's something physically wrong with him. His serve was really weak (for him). marmar Aug 2012 #11

Thanks. MuseRider Aug 2012 #12

Ryan Harrison lost today. Do not like him. At least he did not break another racket. Logical Aug 2012 #29

I think he's got a snotty attitude...... a kennedy Sep 2012 #30

Andy was like that at Ryan's age. Even Federer was TBF Sep 2012 #31

I'd rather him than Murray...but I'd like to see David or Tomas win... joeybee12 Sep 2012 #66

I was surprised at how much he lost focus in that match..... marmar Sep 2012 #67

Also, he's lost focus against lesser players... joeybee12 Sep 2012 #68

I agree - I think RF could win the Australian or TBF Sep 2012 #69

I think Djoker is playing too well this tournament... joeybee12 Sep 2012 #70

That 2nd set between Nole and DelPo was insane !!!! marmar Sep 2012 #65
