Uh.. 2009 Wimbledon. But Federer did have to defeat the Great Great Andy Roddick in the final.



Yep, thought Fed played Djokovic in the quarters that year, but Djokovic lost to Haas there who Fed then beat in the semis.

Whoops.

You think Venus is pissed that she could be the greatest female tennis player ever if it wasn't for her younger sister?

Damn, if Venus drops this game after having double set point, this may come back to haunt her.


ETA: dammit

I wouldn't think so. She has plenty of accolades regardless.

That call wasn't even close.

What is with that John Cena-hand thing Venus does after some points?

I agree. She should've capitalized on that double set point...

This is pathetic.

Forehand is shite, and she absolutely REFUSES to come to the net. She's had countless opportunities to do so. Awful.

ETA: and the one fricking time she halfway tries that lucky shot happens

i wish they had shown it again. Seems like if it was that far in, the crowd would've made more noise.
