sbi's boi been disappointing

lies

 

[Spikey]

nah uh

well actually spacing out their harder matches could be better for rafa and roger and co theoretically

True. But then they may cop a string of to 30 players throughout the tournament.

As I said they basically run the game. If they really wanted 16 seeds they could get it

Lax drug-testing casts undue shadow over centre court. | The Australian

My best mate has been going on about this for ages. He is certain that the top guys in tennis are all on the juice.

In any case, the authorities seem to be doing a piss poor job of testing right now.

Bernard Tomic caught speeding, loses licence

He is the gift that keeps on giving, our Bernie.

Jono to appear as a key witness and say that despite what everyone is saying, he was actually going slow.

Swiss and Czechs play a 7+ hour doubles match in the Davis Cup, which both Wawrinka and Berdych participate. They then rock up the next day to play a singles match against each other. Amazing.

Berdych leads 2 sets to 1. If he wins Czechs are through.

I know Nadal, Ferrer, Almagro, Verdasco and Lopez were missing, but an impressive performance by the Canucks to beat Spain.

 

[Jono]

Milos Raonic wag.

Weird for Spain to not give a **** like that. Surely one of the above could have played?

 

[Turbinator]

Raonic!!

Rafa thrashes Fed again - great to see him back

 

[Jono]

Yeah imagine rafa vs fed playing off in a quarter final! Talk about value for the fans haha.


Meanwhile my boy Delpo sent Murray packing!

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Great to see he is back at the same level. Just a case of waiting to see if he can last over weeks/months now.

And now he's beaten Djokovic.

It's safe to say that Delpo's back.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Yup, odds-on for another R4 exit at the Slams.

 

[Jono]

Rafa vs. Delpo final, the best result. Love both of them so much

 

[Jono]

Rafa wins in 3. He is back baby!
