Hi

Here is a really good sportspage with results - LIVE - from many sports - like Tennis

Sports Live scores

This is in fact the second link, right next to HOME (at the top bar) in tennis frontier web page. :)

Well I neverr come there so I didn't know - thanks for the information. Another thing:

FO will be without Caroline as it was mentioned earlier today on WTA's Twitter.

.@CaroWozniacki has withdrawn from @RolandGarros due to a right ankle injury. #RG16

She can not serve properly or jump, and she can not hit her backhand optimally, so it makes no sense to play now, Piotr to TV 2 SPORT.

Glad to see that she's waiting to the grass tournaments where we will see her in Nothingham first.

Caroline needs to take her time and heal properly. She is still young enough to where she can take and extended medical leave, fix body, mind and spirit and come back as Caro 2.0. She just might find her second life in the game like Kim Clijsters.

I am afraid the ship has sailed for Caro. She was #1 for almost two years and during that time itself she could not win a major. The chances of her winning a major after she is physically and emotionally banged up is next to nil.

But, I am sure she will come back and win some minor titles here and there and may be even get back to top 10, but that will be her ceiling.

Two rounds of Quals are over for women. One more round is there.

Sorana Cristea, Vania King, Klara Zakopolova, Daniela Hantuchova and Melani Oudin have won two rounds and are a match away from making it to the main draw.

Back on track. Here is a promising little video from Caroline from her training today. Two more weeks she'll be ready for a start - me thinks.

She did not have an eating disorder. She said nothing would stay down because of her nerves and that's not an eating disorder.

#comprehensionisnotthatcommon ....eating disorder is when you cannot eat normally...therefore something is stopping her from eating properly causing disorder in her eating pattern.

Caroline ready to play at Aegon Open Nottingham next week - well hope so. Caro will travel to Nottingham tomorrow, her ankle still isn't 100 % and she's big problems with her movement She will try to practice on grass and play some practice matches to test her ankle, then they will decide if she will play Nottingham!

It appears that Caro has been declared ineligible for being infected with Zika. However, it may not be the last word on this.

Caroline Wozniacki's appeal has been successful and she will represent Denmark at the Rio Olympics.

Thank you ITF:clap

Yep, she appears to be bordering on anorexia. Why can't she let go of John Inverdale's comment, especially since she allegedly forgave him and she allegedy has high IQ?

I hope she gets help quickly. Her condition looks very serious. Anorexia has nothing to do with high IQ or lack thereof.

No but I think GSM is saying that she's too intelligent to be still bothered by his stupid throwaway remark...
