(+) Yeah! (+)

Honestly I'm just pleased that Roddick was able to get back on serve and play to a tiebreak after falling back 0-3 to start that set. As long as he keeps his head I think he'll be fine, he has honestly been outplaying Ferrer for the most part.

And now down a break in the 3rd. This is not good. He's still got 2 chances for the break back, but he isn't looking nearly as confident as he was earlier.


On the bright side Querrey is into set 4 after winning a tiebreak. :/


Edit: And now he (Querrey) is up a break in the 4th. Is Cilic falling apart? o_O

Did Roddick just challenge to prove the ball was out?

Poor roddick indeed, but the Cilic v Querrey match has been absolutely nuts.

Such an incredibly clutch break-back down 5-6 in the 5th set by Querrey. About to be 7-7 with no end in sight. Breaks have been few and far between throughout the entire match..

And I've got Murray/Baghdatis on my computer now also because I was tired of waiting for the Querrey match to end before I tuned in. Murray seems pretty upset with himself atm.

At least Fish and Baker advanced.

Murray has show brief glimpses of pure brilliance so far this tournament. He just needs to figure out how to string that together for an entire match before he makes the finals.

My brother is in some sort of outrage about that match being rigged, and I still haven't figured out why.

I can get behind this.

Except it would be lovely for Ferrer to win a major.

Not the greatest chance on grass but he deserves one!

MURRAY up 5-1 in the fourth on CENTRE COURT.

There is no chance he doesn't get a chance to serve it out.

That's just something he must accept.

Just got an email about some tennis clinics here in Houston THAT ARE ON CLAY COURTS!!

But the one I want to join (the intermediate one) started last week. The beginner, advanced beginner, and advanced classes all start tomorrow. Such bad luck.

I emailed them to see if I could still join because I would kill to play on clay.

If I can't join the intermediate one, I'd like to join the advanced beginner one but I honestly have no idea what to expect as far as the level of play in a class like that. Could be perfect for me, could be way too easy for me. They don't even have descriptions that include ratings like 3.5/4.0 which seems ridiculous.

I wish I had been smart and opened the email sent two weeks ago. I could be well on my way to fulfilling my dream of playing on a clay court!

But first I'd make it to the finals in my last 5 attempts, winning 2 of them and solidifying myself as one of the top grass court players of this generation.

So I can play on the same courts that Mardy Fish, James Blake and John Isner lose on every year!

Federer seemed to be having some problems with his back. I know his movement didn't look very good during the first set. The cold rainy weather doesn't help either.

Sharapova stop being a scrub, you're one of only two people left in the bracket that can stop Serena.
