Andy Murrey does look a good prospect though. I reckon Rafter will easily defend his title this year.

I hope Davenport does well in the womens but as long as none of the venus sisters win it i'll be happy
If you really want to see the best tennis then u should watch Rolland Garos and this year we had really great matches......
Well i love Wimbledon neither the less ... and its always great to watch...

cmon tim rather annoying i know.

I prefer men's tennis actually, even taking into account the totti factor, 3 set matches are just too short.

The 4/5 set marathon matches are what makes tennis so engrossing, the year Goran won it probably being my favourite.

In Argentina, for example, tennis is one of the main sports, probably the second after football of course, and you can watch every single tournament. While I was there in January I was really surprised they were doing such a great coverage of the Australian open and I believe they are doing the same now with Wimbledon.

I have just received my boss' tickets for the men's finals (and he even didn't pay, he was invited!!!! )...I'm sooooo jealous!!!! I will probably run away with them!!!

If case someone is interested, this is the order of play for today Thursday:

Great matches in Centre Court today!

I feel abit sorry for him but he is just unable to compete with the big hitters.

Andy Murray played a great match though, what a crowd pleaser and only 18 too he tore that 14th seed apart.

THE FUTURES BRIGHT THE FUTURES MURRAY
