game_boy Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 at what age nag-umpisa mag-aral ng tennis ang mga tennis greats and do we have a chance to field a world-class pinoy tennis player in the future? Quote Link to comment
burn4nokia Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 I believe most of the top seeds started at age 11 or 12. Probably one needs to train in the U.S. with a good tennis coach even at an early age to even hope to make it to the tournament. 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
