The state of American tennis is a joke, I mean on mens side. Plenty young talent on WTA.

What's the reason for that? Kids too lazy or just most gifted athletes play other sports where they can get much better money and the contracts are guaranteed. I guess black guys not picking up racquets does not help either but then maybe they don't wanna be a joke like Donald Y :)

Sock Canadian doubles partner is playing injured, total heart, just sayin'

Didn't Raonic stub his pinkie while out to dinner with his boyfriend and caused him to not play in the major. Not much heart there.

If Raonic had an ounce of the heart Jack Sock has he'd probably be a threat to win a 250 event or something.

At least in Canada they have hockey. Not excuse for US. If Sock is you best player you got a serious problem.

Bright future for Aussie tennis.

digging on muguruza tomorrow vs safarova - quick turnaround for safarova after big w against sharapova today, and garbine seems like she is taking a pretty nice liking to Roland Garros - also like the lower ranked and seeded fave angle here


playing:


muguruza -118 vs safarova



gl - burns

That's what I was thinking. Was expecting something around -200 or even -170


What's up, Snoop?

I need to know what u guys think about the WED card:

* Man, Nadal has had some shaky performances in the run-up tournaments. Does he have one more in him?

* Lie to me. Tell me Ferrer doesn't have a good shot vs Murray.

Safarova on absolute fire, so much for a letdown - hoping that she starts to wear down a bit in the 2nd as this is her 3rd match in 2 days (including doubles) :mj09:

It's just men against boys out there. Kei is just completely over-matched. He doesn't have the power or mental capacity to compete with the big boys like Joe. The only problem I see with Jo Willy today is his hideous wardrobe. The tour needs Joe, not the other way around.

If Joe has any realistic shot of catching Fed's record of major titles he's gonna need to finish at the French this year. It's probably to early to say he's running out of time but it feels that way.

I am conflicted....I bet on Safarova but she is coached by a guy I grew up playing tennis against (lived in my area) who was a complete asshole. I got in a nice scrap with him once in the parking lot. Yes that was a long time ago but once an asshole always an asshole. I will give him credit though he has done a great job with Safarova she's improved a lot under him. Of course he gets to bang her so maybe I am a bit jealous. Dude was a fucking asshole back in the day though.
