The Wimbledon thread.

Sharapova didn't withdraw.. she lost after an injury time out

Ah. I knew she didn't finish the match either way.

[Butler to Baby Sloths]

What the fuck, Federer is out!

Federer 7-6 (7-5) 6-7 (5-7) 5-7 6-7 (5-7) Stakhovsky


2013, year of the giant-slayers?

[VanillaO]

What the dick is going on. Look out Murray and Djokovic, the randoms are coming?

[Northern Goblin]

If Murray doesn't make the final this year, he's blown the biggest chance he'll ever get.

Hell he now has an easier route than Djokovic...

Also did anyone see Brown knocking out Hewitt? That match had some of the most ridiculous shots I've ever seen.

[Xanjori]

I didnt see the Brown match, but I hear its the year of the serve and volley. Tim Henman is wishing he entered!

Ok Djokovic up on centre court now, assuming we're not going to see him go out this early.

Djokovic just won quite easily (well the first set was quite even but then he destroyed him). If Murray does get to the final (which he should) then he will have an even better chance than last year!

[Xanjori]

Looks like Murray going through in straight sets.

[Butler to Baby Sloths]

Murray wins 6-2 6-4 7-5 in 2 hours

[Xanjori]

Serena is hitting the net a lot today, shes the favourite but if she cant keep her tennis clean she'll just put herself out. Lisicki is playing pretty well.

[Daws001]

Cut my cable a few months back so no live tennis for me Watching the score tracker is nerve wracking. I hates it!

Come on, Serena!

Edit: She lost the first set but she's up two breaks in the second. Go, Serena! Go! Go!

Haas vs Nole today. Should be a good one.

[Xanjori]

Aww man you need to find a way to watch online! Lisicki is playing well and even though Serena isnt at her best shes pulling out some amazing shots/serves.

[Daws001]

There's a live feed on Wimbledon.com but they're not showing the Serena match Serena won the second set, though. Woot!

Edit: Le sigh

[Blueobelisk]

Serena is out :O.......................................................................................

This year sucks. Everyone is getting nailed early.

[Skippy88]

So on the Woman's side we have a #4, #15, #20, and #23

On the Men's side we have a #1, #2, #4, #7, #8, #24 and then two unranked players.

If this was the NCAAS March Madness that would be a lot of bracket busters.

my prediction:

Ferrer vs Murray in final and Murray wins

[sheffield]

Murray down 2 sets already... he totally choked in that 2nd set

edit: Murray fought back to force a 5th set.. lets see if he can complete the comeback

edit2: Murray with a brilliant display of testicular fortitude to complete the comeback. Well done.

[TJ]

Epic match, really enjoyed it. Haven't watched tennis for that long in a really long time!

[Butler to Baby Sloths]

Truly a match of epic proportions.

[Northern Goblin]

Murray was utterly sublime in that 5th set. When he gets to that level, the only thing better is probably Federer on his best day.

Really can't see anything other than a Murray/Djokovic final now, and it's really a case of who brings the better form that day.

[Xanjori]

Would be great to see Lisicki go through, shes been awesome this tournament, but shes falling apart a bit in this second set, hoping she turns it around!
