When does Wimbledon start?

June 23rd

 

[Sinner]

2-week gap, which is way too short.  They're gonna extend it to 3 next year, but still, they could do better.  Too bad RG and Wimbledon won't budge. 

 

[The_Isomotion31]

Vamos Rafa.

I can not hate at all on Novack not being able to win RG considering I was/am a huge fan of this man:

Grass court season has officially started here in England. Anyway what you guys think of Mauresmo as Murray new coach? Whilst all the press here are concentrating on gender I'm finding it hard to see his thinking behind it. not because she's a women but just that I terms of what she can bring to the table for him. He says he wants a good listener but honestly I think he needs someone to put him straight from time to time, given his losses of concentration and berating.

I pray that Novak comes back STRONG at Wimbeldon.

Almost sounds like Murray is looking for a yes man/woman as a coach. I am going to keep my eye on him during Wimbledon to see how he fares as the defending champ.

King of Clay immortalized with the very clay he became legendary on.

[The_Isomotion31]

Dimitrov is winning. He has a dope 1 hand backhand.

 

[Sinner]

Since we're on Grigor... this was pretty cool... watching their movement up-close.  

Crazy sliding on HC's... 

 

[britkicks]

Murray and Rafa out of grass court warm ups today

 

[Sinner]

No surprise there... Murray played like crap, while Rafa must have been exhausted.  He could use the rest.  Not to take anything away from Radek & Dustin... both guys played well. 

 

[britkicks]

Agreed I'm sure they were both pretty tired. All that matters is what happens come 23rd

 

[The_Isomotion31]

Sliding on that hard court hurts me just watching it lol.

 

[The_Isomotion31]

LOL

 

[champcruthik]

Old age getting to Fed.

Week away from Wimbledon. Dimitrov will be the darling pick, building momentum with a victory at Queen's.

 

[thadangerousmind]

In a perfect world Federer would win Wimbledon this year and retire the day after like Bartoli did last year.

 

[you go boy]

what is the draw this year? a fed vs rafa final would be

 

[RustyShackleford]

If Grigs wins Wimby, Maria will get so turned on that she will probably blow dude on Center Court.

Serena might even be down for a threesome too.

He's the vogue player to follow and support in 2014. I'm more about Raonic and Nishikori. Even though the former hasn't taken the strides expected and still relies heavily on a dominant serve.
