    Go Serana!

    I don't know about the men's final. Do you go with Roger Federrer for his 7th title or the hometown guy in Andy Murray? :?

    Tomorrow's men's final should be epic in every sense of the over-used word. Can't wait!

    because you never heard of the finalists? That's quite a standard!

    I'm more concerned about the mens game, I personally don't find this next generation of players too exciting, kinda boring to watch play. But that's just me.

    The women are just so up and down. The winner of one slam will go out in the first round in the next. Their #1 always seems to be a one hit wonder (other than Serena). I think men's and women's is better with a CONSISTENTLY strong upper group.

    Villains are good, too. :D

    Double match point to two double faults and it's all even going to the last set. Federer is taking it, no doubt

    Yep, we got a dedicated tennis thread, but its lately been just me talking about what tennis racquet I wanna buy next. (Rf97 cough cough, unless he gets knocked out of the open)

    So it doesn't really matter! I just like talking tennis, dont really care what thread its in.

    Monfils! Great athlete, love watching him play, but he falls apart during matches, kinda sad to see.
