[Denis]

I like that the French Open starts on Sunday already. Can see some more tennis as this more difficult during the work week.

Agreed. I was hoping that they would put Nole tomorrow so I could watch him play live but not to be.
I won't be able to switch my working hours at this time so sadly I will miss most of it during week days.:cry

 

[Front242]

I'll pretty much miss most of it from tomorrow again till Saturday also. Quite annoying.

 

[TsarMatt]

Thanks for posting this, Trent.

Pretty good line-up for day one. Will be watching.

Federer v falla....hmmm flashbacks to Wimbledon 2010 1st rd 5 setter.

wonder if falla thinks about that haha.

on other note i saw your icon and im watching the ducks game. this is one hella game. leggo ducks!

 

[Kieran]

I'm taking a break now, folks, and I don't expect to be back here until Sunday week. Enjoy the tennis! Let's hope it's a barnstormer, with plenty of great matches, heroism, history, and Carlos Bernardes umpiring Fedal 34 in the final... :clap

 

[GameSetAndMath]

The old man wants more time to recover and so volunteers to play on sunday for which there are not many takers. Good strategy by Rog.

 

[Federberg]

According to Eurosport the courts are very slow this year. Oh dear! Bad for Fedal I think

 

[kskate2]

The mad doctor bows out 6-2, 6-1 after hitting himself at least 10 times and having the tourney shrink on court. :cover

 

[Front242]

Baghdatis and Karlovic are wearing the exact same colours :cover Easy enough to tell them apart anyway I guess since one guy is 6' 10".

 

[sk310]

Not sure if it was a mistake because I don't see it anywhere else but Tennis.com's mobile site under live scores just had a breaking news bulletin on the top of the section that said: Nadal Withdrawals from French Open with Stomach Virus, Wimbledon in Doubt.

Maybe your device got a virus??

I swear I saw it and then I refreshed a few minutes later and it was gone. Perhaps an intern is about to get fired over there.

 

[herios]

Kohlschreiber through over Soeda

Not crazy about Roger's color combo either.

[Murat Baslamisli]

This is such a stupid news to begin with. What kind of stomach virus can keep you away from a tournament that is literally a month away? Wimby in doubt? Give me a break...Yeah, someone is going to lose their job over this one.

Roger gets the first set against the lefty and Ivo in trouble in the TB against Baggy.

 

[Front242]

^ Iz the flu, no? :snicker Thank you for that.
