Well,its a shame that Venus lost to Henin,but we really have to give it to Henin.Much as I dont like her,she is the best right now,in female tennis,especially when u consider d mix of talents and age.Thats why she is world number 1.I will be surprised if Kutzestnova beats her in the finals,come Sat.

As for the men's tennis,I am hoping Federer survives Nikolay Davedenko and goes on to win the tournament.He has my full support,not only because he is easily the most talented player in the circuit,but because I want him to be the GOAT(Greatest of all times player in tennis).He is so close to beating Sampras' record.As soon as he beats that record I will switch my support to Djokovic or Nadal,depending on who's more impressive at that time.

Judging from the "mimmicking" show Djokovic put up while playing such a serious match against Moya,I think he's got the tennis showmanship in him.This is good for the sport and will take him places.The lad is simply good.I see him taking over from Federer as world number 1. Nadal is likely to fizzle out fast due to injuries.His game is too much of power play for him to stay 100% fit for too long.He is likely to burn out soon or later.Thats my opinion.
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by doyin13(m): 2:42am On Sep 08, 2007
I don't think Nadal's game is as deficient as before

His serve especially has improved and unlike the other players on the circuit

he generates so much spin on the ball that he has greater margin for error that

will outlive any potential physical depreciation.

As per Federer, I really do think that the dearth of challengers to his dominace has

been very poor

When Sampras was aroun you had the likes of Edberg, of course Agassi, Jim Courier

etc. All well rounded players

But that is no slight to Federer, you can only play the competition that is in front of you.

rankly I think Agassi is better than both cause regardless of the surface, he could always control the rallies

Anyway that's my opinion/
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by McOmo(m): 3:04am On Sep 08, 2007
were Stefan and Courier contemporaries to Sampras ? to Agassi yes !
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by doyin13(m): 3:10am On Sep 08, 2007
In the early part of his career yes
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by PDF: 5:40pm On Sep 08, 2007
What has race got to do with this? The more skillful, the better.

Henin is a more skillful player than the rest, likewise Federer.
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by PDF: 5:42pm On Sep 08, 2007
The match between Djokovic and Ferrer is underway.

Ferrer was leading 4 - 2 courtesy of an early break in the second game. Djoko has bounced back and it's now 4-4.
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by PDF: 5:50pm On Sep 08, 2007
What a turn-around! Djokovic won five straight games to take the first set 6 - 4.
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by A40(m): 6:02pm On Sep 08, 2007
That witch beats my baby mama and then her big sister too angry i just dont know what to say,
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by PDF: 7:51pm On Sep 08, 2007
That 'witch' is damn too good!!!

Novak Djokovic beats David Ferrer 6-4 6-3 6-3 to reach his first grand slam final!

Djokovic will next face the winner of the match between three-time defending champion Roger Federer and fourth seed Nikolay Davydenko.
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by PDF: 9:00pm On Sep 08, 2007
Federer takes the first set against Davydenko 7 - 5. He was broken in the first game set but broke back in the sixth and eighth games, only to allow Davy break when he was serving at 5-4.

The second set is underway.
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by PDF: 9:29pm On Sep 08, 2007
Federer takes the second set 6-1. His serve has been of great help tonite.
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by PDF: 1:39pm On Sep 09, 2007
The match between Federer and Davydenko ended 7-5, 6-1, 7-5.  Roger books a date with the last man to beat him, Djokovic, in the final.

my baby! kiss all fired up tongue
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by PDF: 1:42pm On Sep 09, 2007
 

Justine Henin claimed her seventh grand slam title with a 6-1 6-3 victory over former champion Svetlana Kuznetsova at the US Open.

The Belgian world number one needed just one hour and 22 minutes to take the comprehensive win and move above Venus Williams to second in the list of active grand slam winners.
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by PDF: 1:44pm On Sep 09, 2007
Grandma, who's your baby? Djoko?
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by iice(f): 1:49pm On Sep 09, 2007
LOL. . .ke! Federer kiss kiss
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by doyin13(m): 1:51pm On Sep 09, 2007
To all you ladies

Djoko has promised to streak when he wins his first grand slam grin

Cant say I am looking forward to it angry
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by PDF: 9:44pm On Sep 09, 2007
The final match between Federer and Djokovic is in progress. . .
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by dinozzo(m): 10:40pm On Sep 09, 2007
who is watching Federer Djokovic. Damn Djokovic was close in getting the first set, he was serving for set at one point but Federer with little bit of luck and clumsy play from Djokovic has won the first set in the tie break 7-6 (7-4).
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by dinozzo(m): 11:39pm On Sep 09, 2007
Federer took the second set on a tiebreak and is leading 2-1 in the third
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by Jackal(m): 11:55pm On Sep 09, 2007
Federer leads 3rd set with 4-3.

I think he's the best player that ever held a racket to play TENNIS.
His attitude and countenance is top notch.
I am yet to see a sportsman with such expressionless and non-challant look.
He makes everything seem effortless and plays like he cant be bovvered.
Re: US Open 2007: The Final Grand Slam by dinozzo(m): 12:06am On Sep 10, 2007
thats Mr Federer but he is getting annoying now, he's winning evrything
