Novak Djokovic:
Irresistible charm? No.
Arrogant cocksmack.

Ahhh, Kuznetsova!
Strong, fast, fierce. Champion's game . . .
almost, but not quite.
p.s. Nice one, tiki. Extra points for use of the word "cocksmack".

Kevin Anderson -
warrior for all who tire
of boundless self-love
Yeah, I'm still working on this one. He deserves better! Bring a try, tiki!

I'm coming up empty, oops. The name "Kevin Anderson" is just not that inspirational, I guess. I might do one later for Fabrice Santoro, though.

Magic Santoro,
All quick hands, cat feet, bright eyes.
I'm under your spell.

You're awesome, tiki. You should send that one to him!

Thanks, oops, but I'm too afraid I would seem like a stalker! I do think we should collect all our haiku at the end of the year and make a little Word document or something out of it, if only for us.

I think we should make shirts with the different haikus and all go to the US Open wearing them!

Oh Mikhail Youzhny
Self inflicted head trauma?
Crazy ass Russian.

Hee, whyistherumgone! I was trying to think of a Youzhny one, but I can't top that.
I like oopssorry's idea about the US Open -- I mean, we couldn't possibly be more annoying than the JBlock or the Serbs, right? I live way out in NM, but I was planning on visiting family in the northeast in August or September. I'm a freelancer, so I could possibly make the trip coincide with the Open...

I haven't written a haiku since elementary school but here goes:
Yooze hit ball in net
Racquet to face, blood falls down
Nico is shaken

Awesome, chesty and whyistherumgone! And I was half-kidding, tiki, but boy wouldn't that be fun! I would actually need to make it another tournament because the USO timing is the worst for me - the semester starts right around then. I will, hopefully, have a sabbatical in a couple of years - and then that would be a total blast.
Maybe we could have a haiku flag like the Roger "Genius" sign that would travel with each of us to a different tourney!
Would love to watch the intensity between Youzhny and Janko - maybe it will inspire the poetry?!

It really would be fun if some of us managed to get together at a big tournament. Maybe sometime in the future...
I can safely say that Blake/Nadal will not be inspiring any poetry from this girl.
