Curses, foiled again!

A Venus Wiliams victory yesterday handed K Wimbledon, for a fourth year running. I could have drawn had Bartoli won, but I can't say I was expecting it. It's possibly partly my own fault for refusing to have the Wiliams sisters in any of my teams - I still hold it against them for making women's tennis so boring to watch during the period where they both made it to several finals and then just whumped the ball around the court. I refuse to pick Roddick for similar reasons too.

I shall now knuckle down and start plotting for the US Open - my only chance at a title this year. Some serious thinking is called for!

Really fantastic men's final yesterday, had us glued all the way, would have loved to have watched it with you. I'll be trying to equal the Federer / Borg run of five in a row next year! Withdrawal symptoms are pretty bad today! K xx

Withdrawl symptoms are not too bad - probably because I couldn't watch any of it. Ooh, how I wish I'd seen that final. Was it as good as Rafter-Ivanisevic?
