Tennis fans unite!
Rightio - first off, wasn't so sure where to put this - just a space for us to comment on the U.S Open, tennis in general, and other related...stuff. Favourite players and such. My own favourite player, idol, and God, is Roger Federer - the 12-time Grand Slam Swiss Maestro.
Ever since his illness in the beginning of the year, he's suffered a few more losses then usual, which on top of the debilitating mononucleosis (which apparently doesn't leave the body, but has dormant and active phases) has really dented his confidence. Now his record 272 week, consecutive reign as Number 1. has come to an end and the new champion is Rafael Nadal, who has had a phenomenal season.
This particular U.S Open is really crucial - it will test the new world number 1. who has yet to make even the semi-finals at this event, and it will test Roger's mental strength. He's won at the U.S Open for four years running now - winning it again will be just what he needs to get back on track. Let's not forget the likes of Andy Murray (in great form at the moment) and Djokovic (losing some of his consistency).
So, talk away!
P,S - Can someone tell me when it will be 7pm, Tuesday, for you guys? That's when Federer plays and coverage for me, in Sydney, begins at 1am-3pm, so I kinda want to get it right.
