Senna 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2005 We have great coverage of Wimbledon here in Britain (if you have digital TV) as I can choose to watch any match I like or see interviews etc on the BBC interactive service. The terrestrial TV coverage of Wimbledon is also good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raikkonen_rulez 0 Report post Posted June 22, 2005 that's good we mostly get to watch the big names/ aussies playing but i usually watch the first few matches only as i need to wake up early in the morning tonight features mark poo vs marat safin should be interesting i'm interested in seeing which one breaks their racquet first Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nojvnof1 0 Report post Posted June 22, 2005 I'm a fan of both the Scud and Safin so it should be a good match. In the women's, go Maria Sharapova!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raikkonen_rulez 0 Report post Posted June 24, 2005 i think the scud should seriously work on his fitness before he comes back he tends to injure himself a lot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nojvnof1 0 Report post Posted June 24, 2005 yeah I know, but when he is playing well, he's right up there with the best. The Brits must be spewing Henman is out early...again!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

raikkonen_rulez 0 Report post Posted June 25, 2005 serena is not out yet... but seeing her current form she might not win, I still think she's favourite rather, amelie mauresmo has impressed me a bit kim clijsters and lindsay davenport look strong as well but I reckon sharapova might have a chance at defending her title, I don't fancy it though this is the first time in many years the women are actually very competitive, much more than the men.

I reckon the reason why British tennis don't do so well is because they have too much pressure (also applies to the football team). All the hype, and they acheive nothing. (I hope this doesn't happen to the new scottish boy Andrew, he seems to be quite talented) I agree with you that Maria Sharapova is good looking. She has a nice figure, and a nice outfit, but her grunts are starting to scare me a bit now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
