Dustin brown versus joao sousa on now in the first round.

 
mikesiva 2017-07-03 07:09:10 

An entertaining first set as usual.
smile
Sousa wins it 6-3. That was a see saw second set! Dustin takes it on a tiebreaker.

World number 97 and the place cork!

A shocking overrule by the umpire on the cheap courts where there is no hawkeye. Dustin laughed it off and kept his cool to take the third set at four.

Dustin does it again in the fourth set 6-4.

Andy Murray next.
cool

 
mikesiva 2017-07-03 09:28:25

Venus wins in straight sets


Incredible..at her delicate age with her medical challenges...this is her favorite surface and she's won this 5 time already****

It wouldn't surprise anyone if Venus took home the trophy again.

Yes indeed...the media are not letting her forget it. As long as she keeps winning, they will always remind her of it.

That net worth of $100 million likely to go down after this settles...

Venus on court now. She plays naomi osaka of Japan. Naomi has a Haitian father.

Venus takes the first set on a tiebreaker.

Venus takes the second set at four and marches into the fourth round.

 
Khaga 2017-07-07 15:45:34 

Come on Fognini!

 
mikesiva 2017-07-08 11:56:03

In reply to Khaga

That fu#king idiot. Up 5-2 in the 4th and pissed it all away. The fu#ker stopped play in the middle of a point to challenge a line call and he didn't even have any challenges left.

 
mikesiva 2017-07-08 13:41:22 

In reply to Devin

Federer with a masterclass now.
cool
Zverev the elder playing some refreshing serve and volley tennis but he is being outclassed.

Mikhail zverev with a good comeback but Federer takes the first set on a tiebreaker.

Federer takes the second set at four.

 
mikesiva 2017-07-10 08:46:05 

Venus williams wins the first set of her fourth round match against Konjuh 6-3.

Venus wins for the loss of just five games.

Muguruza knocked out Kerber!
surprised
Halep sends azarenka packing.

 
mikesiva 2017-07-11 12:44:36 

Muguruza beat Kuznetsova in straight sets to move into the semis.

 
Tryangle 2017-07-11 12:57:07 

Apparently if Halep can dispose of the British hope Konta, she'll claim the #1 ranking.

 
Oilah 2017-07-11 13:15:07 

Very entertaining match now on between Halep and Konta. In the 3rd set

 
imusic 2017-07-11 13:32:35 

In reply to Oilah

Muguruza looking dangerous. She just might take it all. She certainly has the game to do it

 
NineMiles 2017-07-11 13:56:24 

In reply to Tryangle

The British hope just made it into the semis razz

 
imusic 2017-07-11 14:12:52 

In reply to NineMiles

Congrats. She's playing well.

Back to the drawing board for Halep. She must be so frustrated.

No Serena and still can't get it done.

 
Tryangle 2017-07-11 14:14:31 

In reply to NineMiles

Does that mean that Pliskova, who got knocked out some time ago, will take over at #1? Wouldn't that be something. lol

People are falling into #1 rankings while Serena's pregnant. Somebody step up and actually *take* the spot already smile

The sports media are going to be thrilled with the ramifications of the Konta/Williams semi.

 
Oilah 2017-07-11 14:18:39 

When Halep is playing shot makers she has to hope they are off because Halep does not have the weapons tuh beat yuh off de court...just great defense

 
Oilah 2017-07-11 14:19:46 

My bet Coco Tea up next

 
FuzzyWuzzy 2017-07-11 14:24:19 

In reply to Tryangle

She's a legit number one.... she has the points..... it's not only about grand slams you know.

 
Oilah 2017-07-11 15:42:20 

Rybarikova just drink up de Coco Tea smile

 
imusic 2017-07-11 15:45:07 

Damn! Rybarikova sliced Coco Tea to shreds. Pretty surprising.

I still don't think she'll go any further but she's already shut up nuff peeps in this tournament....including me.

There's no way slicey can beat Muguruza in the semis....can she?

 
Oilah 2017-07-11 15:50:05 

In reply to imusic

Rybarikova like de pace...she can beat Mugu (who I like). Mugu and Coco are similar in dat dem got de power but not much variation and if plan A en wukkin dem don't have a plan B.

 
mikesiva 2017-07-13 08:57:25 

In reply to Oilah

Muguruza is massacring Rybarykova!

Since that real toughie against Kerber, she's been firing on all cylinders.

In reply to Acid

Muguruza takes the first set 7-5.

 
Acid 2017-07-15 10:03:47 

In reply to mikesiva

That was a bad way to get broken

The Venezuelan takes the 1st set

 
Acid 2017-07-15 10:19:31 

Definitely looks like the South American is in total command - unless Venus pulls some sort of magic

 
Acid 2017-07-15 10:29:37 

7-5, 6-0

Muguruza win

Venus lost 8 games in a row from 5-5 in the 1st set

 
DAVE400 2017-07-16 09:54:47

DAVE400 2017-07-16 09:58:18 

Shit....Cilic crying....

Feeling sorry for him.

 
DAVE400 2017-07-16 09:59:33
