    Djokovic seems certain, he's like god in Serbia Laughing From what I've read Nadal is also likely to be flag bearer and someone from the Russian Tennis federation said Sharapova will carry Russia's but the head of their Olympic committee said they hadn't decided yet.

    Unsure about Federer - he seems like the best choice but he did it in 2008 so who knows.

    There are more than 5 counties in the Olympics y'know shifty Sharapova's doesn't seem like a good idea tbh - she's never even competed in the Olympics before. Usually, especially in Russia, they save it for top Olympians and mostly men. Isinbayeva seems like the best choice but apparently she doesn't want to do it.

    I'm sure Jamaica have a superb Tennis player to hold it ahead of Bolt. shifty

    Hmm yeah you're probably right, not too sure what they base it on but Maria isn't the most deserving probably, either way, exciting times ahead.

    Murray is poor. Even some of the game's most respected people are calling him out on his recent antics.

    “Nadal hugged his father, his mother, and his sister. He hugged his manager and his uncle Miguel Angel and his girlfriend and his traveling buddies. Finally he came to his other uncle, Toni. Their relationship has been much scrutinized over the years, and Toni’s unforgiving ways with his nephew have been criticized. At this tournament, Nadal defended Toni, saying that he wouldn’t be where he is today without him. And it’s true, while Rafa is famous for his mental endurance, it was Toni’s stoical teachings that inspired that stamina. Asked a few days ago how often he fishes—it’s a favorite avocation of Rafa’s—Nadal said that he’d like to do it in the mornings, except that he has to practice. “My uncle,” he said with a smile, “wouldn’t be happy” if he skipped morning practice to go fishing.

    Toni spun and danced and cried after the last point. When Rafa got to his uncle, he jumped into his arms. There were a lot of emotions, Nadal said, and love was one of them. And love, as they both knew, can be tough. Toni, whether it was having his nephew play with beat-up tennis balls as a kid, or helping him chase down Novak Djokovic this year, always made Rafa walk the hard road. Today was a day to celebrate how far it had taken them.”

    Hmmm... I was looking at the ATP site the other day in college, said who was playing where, nothing on Djokovic though.

    Maybe he's struggling to get over it. alee2

    Oh, he won't win Wimbledon, I just think it would be nice if he did.

    It's obviously going to be another snoozefest in the final.
