First BB sucks and the US Open is too!!! Although the Hewitt match was fabulous, this ladies match is like watching a tea party or something. It is so weird how there is such a lack of excitement.

And now Serena loses! I can't believe it, but I haven't understood why she keeps losing the second set instead of just finishing it off.

This time she couldn't pull out the third so her calendar slam is over.

I stopped following tennis on the day that The Queen (Steffi Graf) retired from the sport.

But I will never forget (who can?) the inimitable Bud Collins.

I think that was due to a rule change more than cheating?

Jimmer, I did see a more detailed report where she indicated that the drug she was taking for many years was deemed a problem about a year ago. She said she didn't realize that it had been reclassified, but will be accountable for the mistake.

Yeah, it sure wasn't to cheat. I just wonder what the drug was for but it really isn't any of my business, LOL.

Holy crap...Wimbledon...Sam Querrey took out Novak Djokovic's!!

And they will have tennis tomorrow, Sunday, because they are so far behind, some players aren't even out of the second round.

Apparently this only the 3 or 4th time they have ever played on the this Sunday in the tournament.

Venus wins!! I am so happy, hope she does really well! It would be great if she could win, but I am not sure she can get past her sister.

So disappointed to hear Roger Federer is out the rest of the year with a knee injury. He and Martina Hingis were going to do mixed doubles together at the Olympics and I was so looking forward to them playing together again competitively for the first time since 2001. They're both such smart players with well-rounded games like we rarely see anymore. Sigh
