A year ago I was certain he would win at least 1 grandslam, but now I am not that certain.

Not been on this thread since Sunday - well done Rafa on winning the French open - he thoroughly deserves the accolade as the greatest clay court player ever.
Also, oh dear Murray; what the hell happened to him today?
Did Murray lose?
He will loose lots of points doesn't he? not good preparation for Wimbledon
Nalbandian disqualified at Queens. One of the funniest things I've ever seen in tennis.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/tennis/18479244
was just about to send this.
i read the report on line,i first thought he kicked a hoarding a bit to the side and it then spun towards the guy.
but no.even a very blind person could see kicking that would result in an injury.
He may as well have just kicked him straight in the leg. He should be banned for a couple of months if you ask me.
I didn't think it was funny at all.
I had £20 on Nalbandian, he was a set up aswell.
yeah,almost cantonaesq.
Any self respecting bookie would refund your money...
No such thing
Same sort of thing with the boxing last night, there was a clash of heads and one got a bad cut above his eye, ref stopped the fight, called it a draw.
You guessed it, that cost me £20 aswell,
2 bets in a row for me with totally unbelievable outcomes.
Police investigation now too, though I suppose that is just procedure. He'll claim an accident and get a slap on the wrist at most, which is probably about right.
Totally stupid, and I struggle to believe he didn't notice the guy (and an apology would have been nice), but I dont think there was any actual malicious intent towards the line judge.
Sign him up!
The strange this is that he looks down at the line judge and yet still gives the boarding/hoarding around the line judge the full right volley. It's very odd!
I'd give the bookie the miss for a while,Wirral. Or put just a few pence on the next punt to sort of feel things out.Same sort of thing with the boxing last night, there was a clash of heads and one got a bad cut above his eye, ref stopped the fight, called it a draw.

Murray will play Davydenko in the first round. He is also in Nadal's section of the draw so that means another potential SF match up with the Spaniard.
Play gets underway on monday. Predictions?
I predict Federer to triumph.
Murray to continue to mould himself into Henman.
Men = Novak
Women = Sabine Lisicki (I'll be backing her EW for sure)
Good shout that. Wouldn't be surprised if Kvitova does well too after winning it last year. She has an excellent record at Wimbledon. I predict Sharapova Kvitova final with Sharapova winning. She looked great at RG and I expect her to continue her form at Wimbledon.
The women's could be more exciting than then men's this year.
Wimbledon starts tomorrow.
Any London REDS on how is weather looking for this tournament?
Anyway we are in for an exiting two weeks ahead with world No1 in Mens at stake. Nadal can take back his ranking from this time ;ast year if he wins and Novak loose before the semis. Federer also can end up at No1 if he wins and Djokovic not reach final I think.
Djokovic and Federer have been drawn again (surprise, surprise) in the same half of the tournament. This is 16th time out of last 19 GS that they have been drawn in the same half. Hmm don't know what to make of it obviously organisers are desperate for Nadal -Fed final.
Ok enough of that, time for a draw and there are some very exiting match ups in the first round. Here is some of them that include top seeds as well.
Djokovic-Ferrero
Berdych-Gulbis
Federer-Ramos
Simon-Mathieu
Tipsarevic-Nalbandian
----------------------------
Ferrer-Brown
Roddick- Jamie Baker
Del Potro-Haase
Murray-Davydenko
Tsonga-Hewitt
Nadal-Bellucci
At ladies draw we are also entering quite exiting couple of weeks with new (old) No1 Sharapova probably entering as a favourite if you can be one in presence of Williams sisters at Wimbledon even when they are not seeded (Venus). Defending champion Kvitova has surely something to say about that as well as Azarenka. Dark horses: Stosur, Lisicki, Pironkova etc
More interesting match ups in first round:
Sharapova-Rodionova
Lisicki-Martic
Jankovic-Clijsters
V.Williams-Vesnina
Stosur-Suarez Navarro
-----------------------------
S.Williams- Zahlavova
Errani-Vandeveghe
Schiavone-Robson
Kvitova-Amanmuradova
Wozniacki-Paszek
Kuznetsova-Wickmayer
Ivanovic-Martinez Sanchez
Goerges-Peer
Azarenka-Falconi
Enjoy the first couple of days and hope the rain stays away from SW19.
Can't believe Nalbandian is allowed to play at Wimbledon after what he did last week.
Djokovic starts his defence.
Looks confidant.
Spoke to soon.
