    US Open starts monday and to me the biggest story is that serena will be going for FIVE STRAIGHT grand slam victories

    but will she do it?

    She should do, no one is even close to her at the moment.
    For me the mens could go to Djoker or Federer. I hope Murray does well but he doesnt have the extra the other 2 have.

    yeah, i think serena will be able to pull it off too.

    i just got done watching federer's match in the second round and he made quick work of that dude. i knew he would win, just didn't think it would be THAT easy

    this match between nadal and fognini is epic. nadal looked like he had everything in hand, then fognini stormed back

    too many unforced errors by nadal, tho

    Serena will do the Grand Chelem.
    Tsonga & Gasquet in quarter finals. Tsonga could go in semi but gonna be hard for Gasquet against Federer

    Serena vs. Venus tonight

    serena has a slightly better overall record when she faces her sister one on one.

    but everyone knows that as of late serena has been a lot better. so i'll be surprised if serena doesn't advance tonight

    this serena vs. vinci match has gotten really good

    it looked like serena was gonna make quick work of her, but vinci hung in there and now things are in her favor

    lol yeah, I figured once Serena got to the semi-finals she had it in the bag, but that's what I love about tennis, it's not predictable.

    Joker vs. Federer for all the marbles right now

    joker wins and gets to 10 major victories.

    fed started poorly and had too many unforced errors. i knew he wasn't going to win right after he lost the first set in the fashion that he did

    he needs to alter his game like federer did. but i don't think he will, so he'll just keep losing. it's been all downhill for nadal the last few years
