US Open (1 Viewer)

[hk31]

a thread to discuss the upcoming US OPEN ...for all those tennis freaks out there, like myself...

post predictions, match reviews etc...

i'll start:
Men's singles: Andy Roddick
Women's singles: i have no idea....but maybe Kim Clijsters?

but...i want Hewitt to lose....!!!

 

[...]

Sampras retired!!!

*sheds a tear*

hmm..dunno if Roddick can win, too much to ask for a young lad...Agassi might snatch it off him...

as for womans...
either Kim or Justine

 

[Mr.Ugly]

Agassi for mens
and prob one of the williams sisters for women

their too big, the other chicks cant over power em

 

[...]

both williams pull out

 

[hk31]

yea...its sad to see sampras retire...but at least he retires with honour....i mean the last tournament he played and won was the US OPEN - a GRAND SLAM! go to <a href="http://www.atptennis.com">atptennis</a> to read the special Sampras tribute section

whereas someone like MICHAEL CHANG....is retiring losing in first rounds of many tournaments...poor guy...

yea...i'm kinda glad that the williams sisters aren't playing....something different...but i betcha the AMERCIAN media will now switch their focus on Davenport, Capriati and Rubin....damn stupid American favouritism!

i still think Roddick has a good chance....but i wouldn't mind Philippoussis winning!

 

[piccaninny]

juan Carlos Ferrero MUST win and he will i think. From ladies one of the sisters Williams will make it

damn...hewitt didnt lose today...
maybe the next round?

and its official...sampras is "100% retired"

 

[RiCe_GrOwEr]

Lleytons looking good once again................but Agassis gonna be hard to beat!

In the womens..........Ill go with Davenport.....

 

[hk31]

CRAP CRAP CRAP!!!
Dokic is OUT!!!

WAAAHHHHH!!!!!

 

[piccaninny]

she wouldn't make it anyway

 

[SoFTuaRiaL]

men - roddick
women - clijsters

did anyone try tracing the rounds to see when/where we could see a roddick vs agassi match?

 

[hk31]

Agassi is the no.1 seed...Roddick is 4th...on opposing sides of the draw...

so if they both play well and go through...they will meet in the FINAL!

 

[hk31]

crap! Philippoussis is OUT!!!

am i right in saying...that there are very few tennis fans on the board???

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRROOODDDDDDDDDDDDICCCCCCCCCCKKK!!!!!!!!!1

 

[truly-in-bliss]

i honestly thoguth he wouldnt go thru. I mean the smifinal match wasn't the greatest and he stayed behind the base line for a lot of his matches, which can be a bad thing at times.

 

[...]

Roddick is a baseline player but...

most modern day players are baserliners...
which from Sampras have said, "the lost of serve and volley is wat concerns me the most" after he retired..

*sigh*
serve and volley is probably one of the best tactics ever

 

[hk31]

my predictions were so close!
i got the men's winner right!

but i chose Clijster for women's....oh well....Henin-Hardenne played great anyway and thoroughly deserved to win!!!
