no, but Errani just has this catlike elasticity in her movement, Serena is more about powerTenez wrote:Yes, though Serena doesn't look like a shrimp, does she?

Errani looks like someone who does 10 000 sit-ups before breakfast...

Serena is unbelievable in the middle of that base-line bossing the rallies like she's having a warm up.

Serena's shot landed on the line, Errani didn't sto the paly but kept playing, missed theshot and then wanted a challenge
The umpire wan having no nonsense, spelt it all out to her. She needs to umpire men's matches.

She was out-hit she wasnt over powered
Serena really wanted the score to be 6-0 6-0 so credit to Errani for getting those 3 games

Just checked my email and found out that a dear friend from Australia died yesterday at 46, a wild spirit and a great painter.

To me the difference is rather marginal. I think they both defend well and they both can turn defence into attack. Historically, Andy has been choosing more defensive style but the difference is now smaller.raiders_of_the_lost_ark wrote:I would disagree here.

Nole became successful after he adopted a more defensive approach. On the other hand, Murray has been playing more aggressively recently, and that seems to be bringing him some success too. At this point, I think they are sort of meeting in the middle - there is not that much difference between how aggressively each of them plays.
I would even say that I find current Nole's game more boring - it is metronomic to the utmost extreme.

are we going to have any predictions for today's matches?
My relaxed-friday didn't actually turn out that way. Since I had finished my task and some of my team-mates couldn't, I was given a share of their task to finish. . So not much time.
I couldn't have the prediction game yesterday. I'll add for today's men's semifinals in your thread. Well its about clear who is the winner of this edition.

For me the fun is playing the game and observing others, winning is totally irrelevant and I feel a bit odd now. I really didn't want to win .

Thanks for your kind words, Paul, sometimes I do feel a very kindred spirit with Nole, it's that madness and fire in the veins, as well as love for life and joy in the heart. To Nole and all his fans

Are you going to give away your title just like Lance Armstrong?

Weatherman says 12pm onwards it is clear, with drying the court in about an hour, expected start is 1pm ET.
