Well, I missed it this morning. Turned it on in time to see Mauresmo won the watch! Does anyone else think her face looks like a man's? Is she from France also or what? I was wanting Sharapova to get into the finals but it seems she always falls short one way or the other. Got knocked out in semi's.

Glad to see Amelie win this one. She's always been an incredible talent and entertaining player whose biggest weakness was between her ears. And she seems well-liked by her peers and has answered a lot of questions about her appearance and lifestyle choices over the years with grace and class.
Hurrah for the long-time head case who is finally putting together the kind of year she's always had the potential for.

Just imagine the hair pulled back in a skin tight pony

:idontno: Hee Hee! We had always thought she looked questionable as to her lifestyle choices. But to each his own!

Justine did well with her net play...trying to beat Amelie at her own game.

Does anyone else think her face looks like a man's?OMG! That was my first thought when I saw her. She totally looks like a guy who has had a sex change operation. I've never seen a female with such a manly jaw, not to mention the broad shoulders.

OK Allifunn, it is time for the men's final, coming up in 20 minutes and it is 7:40 here. Go Nadal. Husband feels sure Nadal is going to lose to Federer though on the grass surface. It is a faster surface which benefits Federer in every way he says. He thinks Nadal will get drummed! I at least want him to make Federer work for it, if he can't beat him,a 5-setter would be interesting . And I already told him not to spill the beans about the outcome if he watches it while I am at church as I am going to tape it.

Well said. In contrast some of the other players are the ones who have been graceless. It seems like that is in the past now too.
