OT: The Tennis thread

Draw has opened up a little for Milos - Kevin Anderson upset Stan Wawrinka and with Nadal losing as well, Milos is the highest seed remaining on his side of the bracket. He next faces Gilles Simon of France.

Milos wins his opening round match at Wimbledon in just a little over 2 hours (went to a tie-breaker in the 4th set).

Yikes. Is this recent? She has Kate Moss body.

Yup, this was just last week at the Wimbledon gala.

I just read that Genie's double faulted ten times.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

And just like that, she's out again.

Why's she even bothering at this point? Take the rest of the year off, eat a steak and try to get back to where you were.

And she's one and done at Wimbledon (ouch) - Hey, Vasek won his opening round match (tough five setter).

Yup, time to take some time away and get healthy (both mentally and physically).

Milos through to the 3rd round after a 4 set victory over 117 year old Tommy Haas of Germany.

Vasek onto round 3 after a nice 4-set victory over Fabio Fognini - If he continues that form of play, he could play into week 2 of Wimbledon.

 

[puckhead]

From the tweets, Fognini totally lost his shit on the chair umpire, and never recovered his composure.

It wasn't much of a blow-up - Fabio was upset about an out call on a Vasek ace that Pops challenged and on review the serve hit the line. He had no chance of returning it, but was complaining to the chair that he stopped playing because of the 'out' call. He stopped playing because the ball was already past him (lol).

Is Rafael Nadal done? He just lost to Dustin Brown at Wimbledon.

 

[dash]

So one of the following will be in the quarter-finals at Wimbledon:

Pospisil
Ward
Troicki
Brown

This needs to be moved to the Tennis board. Even you Canuckle heads are welcome there. We need more posters.

Darn it, Milos out after losing a 4 set match to Kyrgios. Milos played quite well, but Kyrgios was just a serving machine today. That 3rd set tie-breaker was the turning point of the match.

Nelson Muntz would give that a "Ha Ha!!"....

So would I. Saw the whole thing.
