Re: The tennis thread.
Williams sisters with 10 years worth of Wimbledon titles. Impressive.
I went on to Serena's wikipedia there, and it's been updated already to include this win, some people are pretty sad

Serena's dad looks like a corpse that they just stick in the crowd to make Serena feel comfortable.

I wish venus could get back to a high level, at least QFs/semis, seems that disease has knocked her out.

Nobody can make a name for themselves amongst the casual fans, and casual fans don't want to see the same people winning every time either. Thus, they lose interest...that's if they had any interest to begin with.

I don't understand how people can watch Wimbledon every year and not want to see more though.

Exactly. And, as sad as it is, the grand slams will always be what's important.
Put it this way, if Sharapova never won any of her slams or if Ivanovic never won the French Open a few years ago, hardly anyone would know who they are. Kournikova is the only real exception to the rule.

Re: The tennis thread.
The same excitement and anticipation just isn't there for something like the Madrid Masters. Grand Slam events are special enough to draw the casual fans in (like myself, I'll admit) and Wimbledon is at the peak of it all.kyro7 wrote:I don't understand how people can watch Wimbledon every year and not want to see more though.

Hardly, only if they are pretending to be experts on the subject. I just can't get behind watching Tennis especially men's matches they are so long. I played about 10 years ago but even then i got bored :s Not difficult for me to admit i only watch Tennis because of "Danish" players.

Tbf, unless you've got Sky/Eurosport there's hardly any tennis to watch, a la me.
In that situation though I don't get why you'd just watch Wimbledon, when the ATP Finals is on BBC, and now ITV have Roland Garros.
Even BBC show the later stages of the Aussie.

5 set men's matches do take the piss now. All the surfaces are so slow, you just get endless rallies and 6 hour matches. It's not fun to watch.

Re: The tennis thread.
2-1 for Fredrik and Jonathan, Fredrik has a wrist injury but his forehand returns have been great. The other pair have been runners-up twice and it looks like its a curse for them!
Wimbledon is the only big tournament i can see on the TV package i have in my home, the only others i can think of is the WTA dedicated to Wozniacki in Farum.

I was laughing at Kyro's pic.
I get what you're saying though. Plus, I live in the U.S. so the Williams sister bumming has never really died out, although I'm actually glad that she won today. She's been through a lot, but now she can piss off and let my girl Azarenka get the spotlight in future tournaments.

I just got footage of the seniors' doubles final or something. That looked like fun.

Nobody else was watching the gentlemen's doubles final, then? That was incredible.
