Watched the replay of Serena losing today. I don't think I have ever seen someone so out of shape unless it was Daly at a golf tournament. She practically had to hold herself up against the wall during the end of the 2nd set. I also can't believe the tensile strength of her outfit. It looked like she was about to explode out of her top!

He's just making excuses. She didn't seem to limp at all during the parts I watched. I think what he meant was that she didn't train enough because she is getting rich and lazy and thought she could get by on talent alone.

Should have upped this for the Women's Quarters, but here's the draw for the men's:
(1) Roger Federer (Swi) v (21) Fernando Gonzalez (Chi)
(3) Lleyton Hewitt (Aus) v (26) Feliciano Lopez (Spa)
(12) Thomas Jo'sson (Swe) v (18) David Nalb'ian (Arg)
(9) Sebastien Grosjean (Fra) v (2) Andy Roddick (USA)
So Federer, Lopez, Johansson and Roddick are my picks. Lopez is looking good, but I'm maybe foolhardy to go against Hewitt. C'mon the underdog!
Sorry ccuadros, but I can't see Gonzalez beating Federer.

I'd go with that except I am not sure Hewitt will win in straight sets.
I also think the Nalb'ian/Jo'sson tie could go either way over 5 sets.

It's womens semi-finals day at Wimbledon, here's the draw:
(1) Lindsay Davenport (US) v (3) Amelie Mauresmo (Fr)
(14) Venus Williams (US) v (2) Maria Sharapova (Rus)
I guess a Davenport/Sharapova final seems likely. Mauresmo has a fairly poor record vs Davenport and Williams has been relatively poor this season, although she showed flashes of her old form in the quarters against Pierce. Sharapova is unbeaten in about 21 games on grass, so would seem to be the favourite. Mauresmo is the only one in the semis who hasn't won Wimbledon previously.
So, Davenport in 3 sets and Sharapova in 2.

I really like Davenport, but it seems like she usually gets her ass kicked in finals

Federer is looking awesome against Hewitt. Doesn't matter what Hewitt does, there's just no way through. *hopes to jinx Federer*

I hate Sharapova. I am so glad she lost, and I'm glad it Venus who did it. I hate her grunts and I hate the way she pumps her fist (when other players do it, it doesnt bother me). I can't stand her.
[but that is not to say I would disagree to engage in sexual relations with her]

When, I presume, grunting and fist pumping would be welcomed?
