Tennis Congratulations (US Open) to Australia!

[randooch]

Samantha Stosur is truly a class act, unlike her opponent, sad to say. :eeek:

 

[MikePotts]

Yes, outstanding game Samantha, well played indeed. I hope Rafa can give a good account of himself tomorrow against the ridiculously 'in form' Djokovic.

 

[randooch]

Yes, I hope Rafa can pull it off. Not looking forward to all the grunting, I must say. That's part of my vast admiration for Roger: his quiet but supreme athleticism.

Australians have gone tennis crazy here this morning. It's the first time an Australian has won a womens grand slam in 31 years.

 

[MikePotts]

Enjoy it Lolly, I hope it encourages more kids to take up the sport. I usually spend a couple of week-ends a year at your boy 'Newk's tennis camp near here - much fun

Thanks for the link. in spite of her talent, Serena is an embarrassment to the sport. Her sister Venus was mortified as well.

We've not seen the last of Ms. Stosur.

It is a wonderment to me when I see the talent that these players have. I would do well to even be able to see one of their serves, let alone hit one!

She takes after her father.
