The Tennis Thread

Evidently!! It’s only the WOMEN after all…and they weren’t Aussies!

Now, now - who would you rather watch? :wink:

Well, when you put it that way…at least they muted the screaming from Sharapova for a while :slight_smile:

:slight_smile:

Bumping for IW.

Woo hoo! I am going to the tournament on Monday!

Lucky you!

I’m thinking now that I’m done paying tuition planning a trip next year with my sister. I’ve been to Miami tourney many times but never to IW and there are some beautiful hotel & spas there - perfect for a girls weekend out.

Today and tomorrow (I think) are just the women - men are still in qualies so not on TV. There has been no one in the stands at all.

I arrived here today and have tickets for Thursday through Sunday, day and evening sessions. Can’t wait! :smiley:

Have a fantastic time!

Scene of the day-- Mardy Fish hanging over the net!

^ Good match too - and while I have never, ever been a Fish fan - I almost wanted him to win the match.

I’m just watching the night matches now. Bethany’s kit almost looks normal.

I see Serena is returning to Indian Wells.

Yep - but I don’t think Venus is there. Don’t know if it’s because she is still boycotting, injured, or just wanting a break.

Does Serena really want to be here? So far, she’s playing like crap.

Serena is carrying a lot of baggage WRT Indian Wells. I am not a fan of hers really but it has to be tough.

I’m not a fan of hers either and I can’t wait until this first match is over and the comms stop talking about it. Why do they have to make everything so dramatic!

I just started watching last nights matches. Even though she’s playing like crap I’ve no doubt she wins anyway.

Only three rows of seats between me and Roger Federer…do I sound psyched? :smiley:

So exciting!! Going tomorrow can’t wait!!

Looked like some v good matches yesterday. We were away all day/evening so I didn’t start watching until late last night. Got through the 3rd set of Dimi/Nick - right after he twisted his ankle and fell asleep - so I had to watch the end this morning. Bad break for the Aussie to get injured when right before serving for match.

FF’d through Serena and watched the end of Stan/Hasse (nice win for him) and end of Sock match now. I’m playing at noon so will ff’s through a lot of the rest of the matches - so I won’t be hopelessly behind today.

Everyone who is going today - have a fun time!

Nice to see both JJ and Ana win. And the Kokki/Monaco match was great. Quite the dramarama.

Tourney is heating up nicely.
