can we bitch about Paris weather forecast in here?

By:

caramba When: 24 May 13 14:12

they were almost back on schedule before today with just 5 matches left to play in two days, but with all the rain delays today, things are looking bad again.

Frenchies still have time to ask the Chinese to build some roofs on their courts. Knowing the eager and hard-working asians, they should be done by the start of the second week.

By:

edy When: 24 May 13 14:32

and Brussels should put Vinci indoors already ffs.

By:

edy When: 24 May 13 14:33

or give Vinci a fake trophy, a winner's cheque and tell her to withdraw

Oy, that was a genuine, super awesome trophy. Stefan Edberg won it twice!

By:

edy When: 24 May 13 14:42

Speaking of Edberg, do you know this story by Jon Wertheim, one of the better known US tennis journalists?

Summer 1992. To earn some extra cash before the fall semester of college, I worked the locker room of the New Haven tournament. (Think I feel old? Kafelnikov had to qualify.) Anyway, I was a glorified towel boy, duties including making sure the showers were stocked with enough ATP Tour-brand bath gel. First day he arrived, Edberg, a top seed and defending U.S. Open champion, approached me and extended his hand: "Hi, I'm Stefan." Rest of the week, he treated me like an old friend. Edberg beat Mal Washington, I think it was, to win the title. He got his check, gave his speech and left town. As I cleaned up the locker room one last time, I came across an adidas bag stuffed with new shoes, a new sweatshirt and a racket. Atop it was a note: "Jon, thanks for everything. Good luck at school, Stefan."

Never heard that. What a great guy.
Incase you haven't seen, Swedish tv channel TV4 did an interview with him and Becker last year, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gb6GKSDERhY

Surely they have to move this indoors soon.

By:

caramba When: 24 May 13 15:05

sun is out. people are out getting the water away from the covers.

By:

Covers going back on.

The interviewer used the phrase "pissed off" on TV You swedes are such badasses

Brussels Open on Twitter seems to be refusing to answer questions about whether the matches are going to go indoors.

By:

caramba When: 24 May 13 15:55

Yeah, we're not into censoring words that much.
I once said kick ass at rootbeer camp, before being corrected by an 11 year old telling me that kick butt is the more appropriate term.

By:

COming back off. Fingers crossed.

By:

caramba When: 24 May 13 16:31

Players back on court.

By:

Darlo Bantam When: 24 May 13 17:37

Vinci price looks very, very short given that she potentially has three matches left if she wants to win this tournament ahead of RG next week, and hence the potential she might just tank today.

By:

sarausa When: 24 May 13 17:44

True Darlo.

By:

sarausa When: 24 May 13 17:50

But it looks like Vinci would die to win this tournament. Compare Vinci and Hantuchova, both are 1983, but the Italian looks 14 years older

By:

The Bhoys When: 24 May 13 17:58

ive backed vinci a few times in recent weeks on clay and she let me down but cant for the life of me see her losing this.

By:

Darlo Bantam When: 24 May 13 18:00

I can't see her losing on best form. The schedule however throws too many unknown variables up. And that goes for all players.

By:

jjjjj When: 24 May 13 18:34
