game_boy Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 think they start really young...5..6...7.. how abt tennis training in spain? Quote Link to comment
Brady2Moss Posted August 11, 2008 Author Share Posted August 11, 2008 ^^Should be fine, only thing is "clay" is the surface of choice in Spain. In the US they favor the hardcourt surface, where majority of ATP/WTA sponsored events are played...including 2 grandslams. So it's easy to see why US trained tennis players gets to rise pretty quickly in rankings. I did remember one Fil-Am tennis player, Cecil Mamiit...Not sure where he is now though. Some updates on the Beijing Olympics Tennis event.Ana Ivanovic withdraws. Quote Link to comment

Guyz ano sa tingin nyo, eto naba ang beginning of the end ni Federer, o me injury lang siya na tinatago??? bad trip din ako nung natalo si Federer. gusto ko sana rebanse sila ni Nadal sa gold eh kaso pangasar si Blake eh herhehe pero hindi ako ganun kalungkot hindi tulad nung natalo si Tanamor hay. okay lang natalo yung mga williams hehehe at least tunay na babae mananalo niyan nyahahahaha. wide open tuloy sa babae. sa men's pag nalusutan ni Nadal si Djokovic, ayos na siya, mahina na kabilang bracket eh. hehehe pag nagkataon napakaganda naman ng 2008 ke Nadal.

darksoulriver Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Big upset by James Blake against FEDERER. Ganda ng pagkakapanalo nya its the first time Blake beat Federer and its in OLYMPICS pa! FEDERER was vulnerable that game against BLAKE. He might have some injuries just keepin it secret! Quote Link to comment
Brady2Moss Posted August 15, 2008 Author Share Posted August 15, 2008 ^^^I was speculating on Roger's injury, but it seems he is fine in winning his doubles quarterfinal. I guess we can say Blake's upset victory will be one of those Olympic lores we will hear often in the future, further proving the fact that this indeed is the Olympics, the highest level of sports. Speaking of Blake, he lost to Gonzales, after his monumental victory over Roger Federer...What a letdown ei??? What about the other Williams??? She lost to a Chinese player Li Na, much to the delight of the local crowd... The ladies singles event is pretty wide open, on the men's side Nadal surely is favored to bag the gold.

Brady2Moss Posted August 17, 2008 Author Share Posted August 17, 2008 (edited) Panalo ng Gold si Nadal, kuha din ang number 1 rankings, hehehehe....Yung Williams sisters panalo ng gold sa doubles... Edited August 17, 2008 by Brady2Moss Quote Link to comment

RaffyN is way too much for FernandoG of Chile, he's so strong and focus to capture the Gold here in the Olympics... The upcoming Number 1 Tennis Player of the World really showed his class and mettle... Congrats Quote Link to comment
bikerider Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 what's up with ivanovic? she pulled out of beijing because of injury. can she play in the us open? Quote Link to comment
geneticfreak Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I'm so happy for Elena Dementieva. After failing to advance to the finals of both Roland Garros and Wimbeldon (in heartbreaking victories nonetheless) she comes out and proves her mettle by winning gold in the Women's Singles Event at Beijing. I have always admired this girl's smile and her shrieking prowess. hehe. Quote Link to comment

WOw :thumbsupsmiley: tama ka bro. wow legs nga ito. hehe. and with her vocal abilities I wonder how loud she gets in the bedroom hahaha. But kidding aside I'm really happy for her she finally pulled up a "major" (since the Beijing Olympics has been dubbed by tennis fans as the "5th" major this year) victory at Beijing especially against a tough "never say die" kind of opponent like Dinara Safina.

Sana Roger-Rafa ulet ito. hehehe hindi ako nagsasawa eh hehehe Quote Link to comment
Brady2Moss Posted August 25, 2008 Author Share Posted August 25, 2008 Oki dok, tapos na ang Olympics...Next, ang last Grand Slam of the Season, the US open in flushing meadows NY... We have a new number 1 player for Mens and Women's tennis...Rafael Nadal and Ana Ivanovic (yup she's back at the top...I don't know how ) A thumb injury will definitely limit her chances on winning her first US open. Nadal on the otherhand is a different story. He certainly is favored to win his first US open, and barring any injuries, he should be able to win it. I just hope the injured stars like Maria, and Ana recovers in time to play in the US...These two athlete/models dress up pretty in any event they join, and NY is a place for them to flaunt their fashion. I'm looking forward to seeing them play...Hopefully all the way to the finals. Quote Link to comment

Yes, that is quite weird. Jalena Jankovic was number one coming into Beijing and Ana didn't even play I wonder how she got the number one spot back. Quote Link to comment
RuinasLasCorazon Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Vamos RaFA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i think he'll win again in this slam.. his time is now Quote Link to comment

Jalena Jankovic was number one coming into Beijing and Ana didn't even play I wonder how she got the number one spot back. Wala nga akong makitang magandang explanation sa issue na yan e... Nyways simula na ng US open, at muntik ng ma-upset si Ana...Buti naka recover...Si Maria hindi kasali dito!!! Sayang looking forward pa nman ako sa suot nya. Quote Link to comment
bikerider Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 what's up with ivanovic? another early exit at the us open. since her win at roland garros, it's all been downhill. hopefully she'll recover from whatever funk she's in and come back stronger. right now, she's not playing like she's the no. 1 player at all.
