I can understand Henman going out in the first round , but Roddick as well and to a litttle known unseeded guy from luxemburg .

tennis right now it just like american football any team / player can win any game anytime .
This kind thing happens on a good day I guess. Noticed how the court is blue as well? The guys here are all about Sharapova
Poor Tim, looks like his Indian sumer is a tad chilly, hope he rebounds for a last hurrah.

Maria shes a doll :-)

She might cut andy of if he does,nt win a tornament soon.


And american express are not please with him either

That advert of him with a trophy on a plane, sure is on TV enough. Whatever happened to Helena Dockic?
Sharapova has to be the plainest looking 6'2" fit blonde I have ever seen. Her face just does nothing for me.

But she is 10 times better than Kournikova, which is all that counts.

I always thought that it was a truism in tennis that anyone in the top 100 can beat anyone in the top 10... There are plenty of similar stories from other Grand Slams over the years where some of the top seeds have gone out in the first week. It happens, and it makes the draw a lot more interesting.

And Henman is now in good company. :twisted:

Of course, in the UK now, we are all cheering for Murray. :mrgreen:

Very funny.....Don't find her all that meself, she is 18 for a start, and I like them older :wink: Hope she doesn't turn out to be another Kournikova, hang on.....she actually wins games, and is ranked # 2, or is it 1?
