WTA Miami

[Front242]

It definitely is imo. On the men's side, David Ferrer grunts while the ball is in play after he's hit the ball and before his opponent hits it on his side. Complete joke.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

I agree it is a hindrance....
Gosh I have also heard Marcel Granollers live at RG.....Shudders

 

[Front242]

^ Was gonna cite him too. He's really bad too, yup. As much as I like Jerzy Janowicz he's really bad too especially when serving.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

I am in the middle of watching Rafa's match excuse me.

 

[Correspondent Kiu]

I also find Azarenka's shriek too much to bear at times.

Shrieking is way worse imo. Why can't they all make cute little sounds like Ivanovic

How come no one is complaining about Serena?

Grunt supreme.

I will try to watch the Coco v Stosur match

In regards to tomorrow's matches
Stephens v Woznicacki
Cornet v Cibulokva
Should be interesting match ups.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Great I can't find a stream for their match.

 

[Hoergren]

My normal source for matches is drakulastream:

but they only send in Italian now. If you want to see it with English commentators try this link and find BT SPORT 2 they send in English:

Gimp ball tennis....sounds like a plan

Ok, so gimp A, you won the toss, do you want to serve or receive. UUUHHHHHHHHHHH. Sorry, what was that, I can't hear you?

Front, did you know what happened in the opening match of Fed vs. Karlovic. Fed won the
toss and elected to receive. Of course I am not comparing Fed to Elena Dementieva or
one thousand other WTA players.

But, I thought it was an interesting little strategy Fed tried yesterday. To top it off, it
paid and Fed got a break in the very first game. Once Fed had the break, the pressure
was off and so he could cruise his service games nicely and won the first set 6-4.

Also, did you know the other two interesting stat from the first match.

1. Average duration of Fed's service game during that match was 76 seconds.

2. Fed had 9 love holds in the 12 service games that he played.

Grunt supreme.

Actually Serena was mentioned, and at least her grunt is an actual grunt, and not a high decibel shriek.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Ha, look at this poll. Only Saddam Hussain won more percentage of votes in an election.

Who is the dominatrix playing next?

 

[10isfan]

Who is the dominatrix playing next?

Pova vs Flipkens because Lisicki withdrew. Pova gets lucky. Although Lisicki is inconsistent, she has a big game and could have upset. Pova seems to be safe until the quarters where she will meet Ana or Petra.

 

[Hoergren]

Hope some of you saw this excellent match Stosur v Coco and the qualifier won 57 75 75 in a match ending here 02.30 Sunday morning. Well done Coco - Serena up next.

Well played Coco and she deserved her win

I think Maria has a better chance to defeat Petra than Ana if they meet.Petra is too inconsistant for my liking.

I think Maria has a better chance to defeat Petra than Ana if they meet.Petra is too inconsistant for my liking.

Pova has a great chance of beating either. I agree about Petra. She can lose to anyone. I am hoping Stepanek can help her. His tennis IQ is very high.

Well I have Maria reaching the s.finals,so we shall see.In regards to Petra such potential...maybe Steps can help her.
