Welcome back, Serena!

“I see some of her previous matches and then she plays against me and produces 13 aces,” joked the Russian. "What about the other matches? I am flattered that she likes to do that against me."
LOLLLL Maria. Yes Serena hates you but she also plays well against you because you have NOTHING to hurt her with. Serena does literally EVERYTHING better than you.

US OPEN F AFTER NEARLY DYING ISN'T A FLOP.
she totally gets that pass for Wimbledon but she was amazing throughout the entire USO series and also the USO itself until the final!
Obv as things stand now she's RG favourite but that slam has history of turning into a mess so the winner will probably end up, like...Lepchenko or someone.
I really never thought Federer would be in a position where getting back to No 1 and breaking the Sampras record might happen...

it's still a ridiculously superhuman effort tho
plus she lost to stosur because of racist schedulers k

nalbandian/murray match is amazing from what i've seen
― uberweiss, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 18:16 (twelve years ago) link
BTW, Radwanska still has not lost to anybody other than Azarenka this year. 0-6 against Azarenka and 32-0 against everybody else.

how embarrassing for 32 people smh
― uberweiss, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:24 (twelve years ago) link
But not for Petra Cetkovska! Who beat her... at some other tournament, probably a Slam once, or something, and just beat her again. (Radwanska is rubbish on clay, anyway).

haha. I watched part of the second set, then had to turn it off, it was so bad. Aga didn't look like she wanted to be there at all.
Anyway, Woz already down a set and a break to AMG lol
― Roz, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 12:15 (twelve years ago) link
Maybe Woz is hoping that by falling to #8, she will then rise back to #1 to show people it was no fluke?
PLAN GOING EXCELLENTLY, CAROLINE.
― neil young & crazy town (edwardo), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 13:36 (twelve years ago) link
NID that Petrova would play her peak tennis against Serena
― uberweiss, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 13:49 (twelve years ago) link
Cetkovska owns Aga. 3-0 against her and all in the past year.
Wozniacki might even fall to No 9 this week if Li Na does well :D

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS :D
SUCH an important win for Serena. Toughing out a 3 setter on red clay against a tricky opponent will do wonders for her confidence going into the French. This is what she couldn't do in Rome and Madrid 2010. So happy!
― uberweiss, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 15:59 (twelve years ago) link
Women's tennis in general is so bad at clay right now. All of the top players suck on clay.
― justfanoe (Greg Fanoe), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 16:03 (twelve years ago) link
Rome and Madrid for Serena!

Welcome to 2008 - specifically the day after Justine's retirement
+ 13 singles slams
― uberweiss, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 16:11 (twelve years ago) link
I'm pretty sure Justine could still win Roland Garros now, even without warmup.
― justfanoe (Greg Fanoe), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 17:46 (twelve years ago) link
She didn't in 2010
― abcfsk, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 17:53 (twelve years ago) link
Well, if fully motivated.
― justfanoe (Greg Fanoe), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 18:11 (twelve years ago) link
she wasn't motivated in 2010? after the AO final and winning stuttgart?
― uberweiss, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 18:47 (twelve years ago) link
Justine's comeback was such a disgusting flop :( She basically never got her serve under control during it.
I really want Venus to come through the bottom quarter in Rome. And then lose to Kvitova obv.
― liberté, égalité, beyoncé (lex pretend), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 21:36 (twelve years ago) link
LOL, Azarenka routines Peer and then 20 minutes later is suddenly carrying an injury so bad she has to w/d.
― liberté, égalité, beyoncé (lex pretend), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 21:51 (twelve years ago) link
yes justine's comeback was amazing :D
thanks for giving serena that one last slam win over you, girl! :D :D :D
becoming clijsters' bitch was hilarious too
― uberweiss, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 23:45 (twelve years ago) link
nothing more beautiful than seeing ivanovic choke away 6 set points. and it was so NEVER IN DOUBT <3
― uberweiss, Thursday, 17 May 2012 21:16 (twelve years ago) link
hope some of you saw that fed-ferrero point just now

THESE GODAWFUL STREAMS PISSING ME OFF SO SO MUCH AAARGH I WANT TO KILL

What a dull presence this Kerber is.
― abcfsk, Saturday, 19 May 2012 13:20 (twelve years ago) link
no rome and madrid for you, serena
― uberweiss, Saturday, 19 May 2012 14:15 (twelve years ago) link
yeesh yet another gallant but losing effort against Nadal from David Ferrer, poor guy.
Up to 6-6 in the TB, they were both tied at 48 points a piece, then Rafa chases down an impossible dropshot, somehow pops it back over the net where it landed right on the line for the mini-break, ten seconds later, it's first set Nadal.
― Roz, Saturday, 19 May 2012 15:44 (twelve years ago) link
and it ends with a bagel. Appropriate.
― Roz, Saturday, 19 May 2012 16:19 (twelve years ago) link
Fed/Nole was a bit anticlimactic yesterday, for all that Rafa and Nole seem to have slipped a little this year thus opening the door for a Fed mini-revival (and shot at No 1), Nole's been peaking when it counts this year and he reasserted the hierarchy pretty convincingly yesterday. So we're back to Nole vs Rafa being the story that counts.
I miss the days when Li would reliably own Azarenka and Sharapova :( I fear they are over :(

Oh yeah, Yulia Putintseva won a big 100K challenger last week and is up to 122 in the rankings. The Devil Child is coming, you guys.

I think this photo might trump even the infamous Rybarikova one for sulkiness!

Li putting the smackdown on Sharapova :D :D
― Roz, Sunday, 20 May 2012 12:56 (twelve years ago) link
Maria will probably fight back to 4-4 or 5-5 and then lose in a torrent of DFs in her last service game
yawn
― uberweiss, Sunday, 20 May 2012 13:14 (twelve years ago) link
Words cannot describe Li's stupidity. What was that. SHE WAS PLAYING SO WELL
― liberté, égalité, beyoncé (lex pretend), Sunday, 20 May 2012 13:32 (twelve years ago) link
BAH
― Roz, Sunday, 20 May 2012 13:32 (twelve years ago) link
hehe
― uberweiss, Sunday, 20 May 2012 13:51 (twelve years ago) link
how come they're both so unintelligent
― uberweiss, Sunday, 20 May 2012 14:10 (twelve years ago) link
A little dribble of hope that Sharapova might choke herself.

'MON!

speaking of which, Li's speciality every time she's dragged wide of instinctively going for the stupid low-percentage DTL winner which she NEVER MAKES EVER NOT EVEN ONCE has been causing me so much grief
― liberté, égalité, beyoncé (lex pretend), Sunday, 20 May 2012 14:14 (twelve years ago) link
i knew it would be too good to be true
maria u suck soooooo much
― uberweiss, Sunday, 20 May 2012 14:15 (twelve years ago) link
