I can’t believe Wawrinka and Federer beat the world’s number two doubles team.
Does anyone even know much either of them have played doubles recently?
Can you imagine Sampras ever achieving this?
Whether or not the Swiss win gold together (and I hate to say it’s looking good, because this is definitely NOT Federer’s lucky year!) I think [...]

… The Madison Square Garden encounter
This weekend, Federer and his agent have announced that the world number one suffered mononucleosis which is better known to me as glandular fever. Federer cited on his website that doctors think he had it since around mid-December 2007.
And since mid-December 2007, anyone who follows men’s tennis will have heard the cries of “the King [...]

In the match we’ll have a quick mover with powerful serves versus… another quick mover with large serves. Just how quick is Tsonga? Well against Nadal, who seems to be one [...]

Thank you to Paolo Bandini (Guardian Unlimited).
Long live the king!
Oh dear.
Djokovic beat Federer 7-5, 6-3, 7-6 (7-5)
Ah the stoic Swiss. To have that sense of perspective and grounded philosophy… “I think he made the more important points today, it was a bit unfortunate for me,” Federer admitted. [...]
Tsonga hands Nadal a beating the likes of which he’s never seen

Right at this moment I’m following the scores (great, great pity I cannot see the match) of the Nadal Tsonga match, watching with disbelief as the in-form Nadal takes a beating the likes of which he’s never seen. No excuses, no injuries, simply seems like Tsonga got his number and just steam-rolled through him. Is [...]
