I have completely missed the ball this week with Toronto starting on the Monday (one day after the Olympic tennis event finished!) I promise to be on the ball for Cincinnati next week 🙂 Like the womens, I have gone for a number of surprises although I think Djokovic will be eager to defend his…
Unfortunately I have not had time at the start of this week to do a full preview for this weeks tournaments but here are my predictions anyway. I have gone for a load of surprises; I don’t fancy Sharapova to win this week, but I like both Wozniacki and Kerber to have strong weeks, with…
Just a very quick note to say how great it was to see Andy Murray claim an Olympic gold with a commanding straight-sets win over Roger Federer. I will be back on Tuesday and hopefully to get some previews out in time for the tournaments starting this week in Montreal and Toronto.
Serena Serena Williams claimed the golden career slam as she beat Maria Sharapova, 6-0 6-1 in the most extraordinary display yet of her sparkling grass court season. Victoria Azarenka scooped the bronze medal with a 6-3 6-4 victory against Maria Kirilenko. I was disappointed by the final matches in the womens tournament all being one-sided,…
My final day at Wimbledon this year was for the round of 16 at the Olympics… thanks to my Brother who took me with his tickets! As we had done for the past two days, we headed to the practice courts where things were much quieter. Suddenly Novak Djokovic darted in front us and we…
Maria Sharapova Well, what a day! Roger Federer found a way past Juan Martin Del Potro, 19-17 in a third set thriller and Andy Murray produced an exceptional performance against Novak Djokovic, 7-5 7-5 to set up a Wimbledon final rematch. The womens semi-finals were disappointingly one-sided with Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova easing into…
Roger Federer This week I have been too busy to provide my daily predictions, but they will be back from this weekend and for the US Open series! I am just preparing my final report from Wednesday’s action at the Olympics, which I will finish this weekend. Here are my predictions for tomorrows matches… Womens…
I managed to get some more tickets for the Monday on Centre Court through the Olympics website and was excited that finally throughout my summer of tennis, there would be confirmed tennis that would not be overshadowed by the Great British weather! We arrived at Wimbledon train station slightly earlier than Sunday and walked to…
In the original ballot of Olympic tickets in the UK, I managed to get a pair of tickets for No.1 court on the first Sunday of the Olympic games. I was looking forward to seeing how Wimbledon would be different for the Olympics compared to the main Championships. We arrived at Wimbledon station at about…
The tennis got underway today with Tomas Berdych the biggest casualty in the mens draw. I was at the table tennis today and will be going to the tennis tomorrow so unfortunately no time to post a proper blog, but I will start publishing my reports on Tuesday 🙂 I have updated my predictions for…
