Who do you guys like this year? I think fed is going to take it all. Player to watch is going to be my favorite though, mardy fish. It's his first tourny back after heart problems and he won his first match in straight sets. Yeah America!
 
i really enjoyed the final last year, hopefully its exciting again this year. it gets kind of boring when its the same old people all the time though. and obviously i'm rooting for Murray, i think he deserves it by now
 
Roddick ftw. he won't but I always cheer for him anyway. Other than him I wanna see Milos go far but in reality Feds is probably taking it. Long as its not that serb mutherfucker Djokovich
 
His style of play was a couple years behind. If he was around five or ten years earlier he could have done some serious damage. He is really fun to watch. I agree with whatever up there though, it gets old seeing the same final every major.
 
I think Nadal has the best chance, Djo 2nd best, and Fed 3rd. Djo and Fed have been paired in the semis for the past few tourneys, which seriously hurts Fed's chances. Yes there is a day off, but only one day to recover from what is bound to be a grueling semi is not enough to be at 100%, and anything less than 100% against Nadal has no chance.Djo is younger and able to recover faster, so he has a decent chance if he gets by Fed.

It is possible that there is an upset, but much less likely than in the women's draw where upsets are routine and expected.
 
Yes but I don't think there will be an upset in the woman's final. I watched sharapova play yesterday, if she continues like that I don't see too many people who can beat her.
 
Top three are all through in straight sets as well as mardy fish. Roddick is up a set right now I believe. Let's go murica!
 
Djokovic or Nadal will win, as usual. Murray just crushed Davydenko though, so maybe he could do ok.
 
never realised he was the same age as nadal until now, don't really pay much attention to tennis just always assumed he was at least 30 haha.
 
Raonic is still in and that guy has one of the best serves around. Wish I coulda watched the Isner match I just saw highlights and it was real close. Too bad he lost though he's one of my favorite players out there.
 
He does kinda look like an old man at a glance haha. So weird to think that like 3 of the top ten players in the world are younger than me. Mind=blown.
 
All the matches are being streamed via live channel from 7 am to 5 pm eastern on justin.tv if anyone is bored at work.
 
we had it streaming via espn on a laptop yesterday in our boot shop. Watched the Songa match and a few others man can that dude move. And hes fucking HUGE!!
 
So stoked Nadal lost, Rosol played amazing, I don't think I have ever seen someone out play Nadal so hard in the fifth set of a major like he did, he just served amazingly and didn't crack at all under the pressure.

Rooting for Federer, really wanting him to win it all and get back to #1 in the world.
 
Great to see that the later of the tourney can be shook up a bit for once. Mardy pullin out the five setter too! lets go buddddd great first showing back so awesome to see. Roddick still going strong as well. Murica!
 
I did. Was pretty stressful to watch, but it was sick. Federers volley and net play was not good at all that match... But after the 4th set tiebreak you knew it was over, he had nothing left.
 
ha tennis... ha

I had € 100,- on Federer, my ass was clenched the entire match, I literally have a cramp in my gluteus maximus right now.
 
This year Wimbledon has been so good. Rosol's match against Nadal was awesome. I'm going to be in London on the 5th and am hopefully going to a match. I can't wait
 
Thank God the club let them play one more game, the outcry would have been ridiculous. That was a phenomenal contest to watch.
 
massive difference between being highly competitive( as shown in pictures) and cocky, there seem to be too many people who can't grasp this...

much as i want Murray to win it finaly, i think he will get knocked out in the semis, djokovic to take the title.
 
Really hope Fed can pull through and beat djoko. Muarry vs Fed in the finals, Fed takes it in 4 sets.
 
Tsonga over fish in four.. Solid first tourney back. Still like fed to take it all. ^ if it is fed Murray I bet Andy doesn't get a set.
 
So we've got Fed/Djo and then Murray/Tsonga.. I still like Fed for the whole thing but wouldn't mind seeing the blowout that would happen with a Murray win for his first grand slam title. I have to be honest though I only really care to see him win if its Nole in the final, I really want to see him lose.

 
So stoked for Fed being in the finals. A lot of pressure on him for this final, a lot records to be broken.
 
I think Federer will win, he has the stats n his favor and if he continues to play like he did against Djokovic he will take it.

Also the pressure on Murray is ridiculous. The first British tennis player to reach the final since 1938!

And the media doesn't help him.

He will choke.
