Thank you for posting that commercial. She is a cutie, isn't she? I uploaded some photos from this year. Very Feli-centric. I know that's a surprise. I am quite fond of the one of Llodra watching a challenge. I like that guy. I know the idea of Black and Huber meeting in the doubles final could be very interesting but I really like Vania King so I'm rooting for her right now. |

Love the pictures lt. Feli really has spectacular legs doesn't he? I also love the Llodra picture. It's a great close up. Most importantly thank for for shirtless Ferrer.

The commercial is cute Fala but I think you are starting to veer in to the territory of needing a visit to Federer's big yellow couch. Please! Who are you telling? I'm seriously questioning my sanity. I'm not sure why I fixated on her in the first place. I think it's the funky glasses. As interesting as a Black-Huber final would be, I'm rooting for Vania too. |

There is an exho match scheduled tonight on Ashe before Nadal's match. It's Martina Hingis and Anna Kournikova vs Mats Wilander and Pat Cash. Sounds like fun and I hope they televise it.

Is it wrong that I STILL want to smack the smirk of Hingis' face? Just me? M'kay, carry on, nothing to see here.

So...junior boy Jack Sock. All I can think of is that Nerfherder song about "I jacked off in my sock last night thinking of you" or however it goes. Jack Sock. So unfortunate. He's now my favorite junior.

I don't think they are because ESPN2 doesn't start coverage until 8pm. I think this is the devolution of the Over-35's/45's etc. The old-timers tour used to be a big deal at the Open and lasted the entire 2nd week. Now I think there is one match a day and it is set up like World Team Tennis where there are "teams" that sit on the sidelines and come in to the matches--and even have that ridiculous music between points. I stopped by a match yesterday that had Conchita Martinez and Gigi Fernandez and Mark Woodforde amongst others but it was too damn annoying to stick around for long. I love Billie Jean King but I cannot stand World Team Tennis and now that it is affecting something I looked forward to, I'm liking it even less.
eta: However, thinking about it, I don't know that the match tonight is part of that because those matches take forever and they won't want to hold up the men's QF for that. Maybe it will be an abbreviated version.

I don't mind Wawrinka, but COME ON, Youzhny! Whoever said he has nice legs -- doesn't he just. The whole body is pretty sweet.

So it's just me, Wink, & Wrink? Not a bad match, though I wish Youzhny would step up more. Poor Wrink has some of the worst skin I've seen in HD, though I assume most of us would look pretty rough. Wink just looks...lickable.

I've only gotten to see a point here and there, but what I've seen was entertaining.

I'm assuming you haven't watched Dolgopolov play. I can't even imagine that in HD.
I'm watching Wawrinka and Youzhny. Good match. I like them both and have no idea who to root for. I want to touch Youzhny's hair though.

I'm totally enjoying watching two beautiful one-handed backhands. I like both guys a lot too, but I find myself rooting for Stan W. However, I think MY is more likely to offer some resistance to Rafa.
Thinking about the men's semis, how do they schedule the order of the matches on Saturday? Is it simply whatever they choose, which normally would mean the bigger marquee matchup is second? In that case, I would think Fed-Djok would be the second match, right?

This match has too much pretty. Bring the wood indeed.
P.S. They just showed the ball girls/boys and I'm searching for Collette. See what you've done to me?

Since Verdasco couldn't keep his break I'm thinking he's done. Nadal in three. Too bad.
