Karen, don't expect anything and you won't be disappointed
I really doubt Federer would lose this one. 'Cause you see, it's not Nadal losing it, it's Federer winning it. It's all up tp him

I know, I know. Don't think I don't know Rafa has lesser chance to win this one. But you know hope always leaves last.

No, it's nice that you still have hope!
I was pessimistic about Marat's chances from the beginning.
And I can't believe I'm actually doing this to myself and watching the game again!

Roger, if he's on his game, will win in straight sets...

I dont see it going into 5 sets like last year.

Just my hopeful opinion

If Rafa loses, I don't see it being in straights; no way this is going to be a RG repeat. Could be wrong though.

Well, I do see it being a closer match than RG

The finals seem to be on a bit earlier this year. I dont remember watching the final at 10:30am here last year...

Yeah, it did seem odd to me that Rafa would lose on clay on straight sets

Just as odd that Roger would lose on grass in straight sets

OK so even though I dislike both Williams sisters, I'm rooting for Venus today.
Serena just... pisses me off.
I'm seriously in awe of how she's managing a good form looking the way she does... she looks so not like a tennis player should look by everything. By the earrings she's wearing [I know when I used to practice, I couldn't practice with jewelry, especially not dangling earrings ], her hoochie nails [are you kidding me??] and of course, her form. I'll admit it, she has more body muscle than I'll ever have, but she just looks bad. And whenever I see her running to a tough shot I'm like "yeah! Like you'd make that shot!"
I'm sorry for the Serena bash, I just really don't understand... anything about her lately!

Although I didnt watch the match, I rooted for Venus as well. Glad she ended up winning over Serena. I just dislike Serena a bit more than Venus.

I too was rooting for Venus. She's my fave female player nowadays.

There's lot of leeway in this thread when talking about players (Hair? Nails? Behavior? Knock yourselves out.), but let's lay off things like bashing a player because of his or her body type.

People are what they are physically. Whenever Serena's put in the time and effort, she muscles up. It's not something she can really control all that much, outside of just staying healthy for her.
