You know, I usually like seeing the older players winning - the players on the verge of retirement. Anyway, just my thoughts. ;)

I agree. But if I could pick any two winners I would have Kim Clijsters and Andy Roddick

Kim Clijsters, Justine Henin-Hardenne, Lindsay Davenport, Chanda Rubin or Maria Sharapove(but that won't happen, she's so young hehe!). For the men's Andy Roddick, Andre Agassi, Tim Henman or Marat Safin.

Men:
Nalbi!!! He is in a great form, and although I love Roger, he won't beat Nalbandian :)
And I hope that Andy Roddick won't reach the semi finals :D
Women:
Kim all the way :)

How did you find out? :P
I was never really keen on him and his play, but since the last year's US open semifinal against Nalbandian...I hate him...he didn't deserved to win, the referees (or what're they names) made 2 wrong linecall at Nalbi's match point and voilá Roddick was in the game again.... I've never felt so angry in my life, poor Nalbi... but anyway we'll win the AO 'cause the end of last year and the begining of this year showed how much Roddick-baby can do against David without the referees help... not much...he losed to him in every game they met since that match... interresting :)
And I don't like players with only big serve's and nothing else...

ok, everbody's taste is different.... may i ask where you're from?
personally i don't have anything against nalbandian, i just don't care about him...
what u said about andy, i can't really agree with ya.
if he was just a player with a 'big serve' he wouldn't be in such a good position, coz it's not only the serve u need to be a number one player or to be in the top 10!
we'll see what he's going to show us on wednesday!!

I'm from Hungary btw

Okay, explanation accepted :D

Big serve and big help is what made him to be the #1. Not anymore, cause he lost to Marat!! And if Federer or Ferrero gets into the final, that one of them will be the new #1. :D
Hopefully you aren't mad at me, that's only my opinion. I hate injustice and that's what happened at the Usopen... and anyway Andy looks like a monkey to me.
Peace

I looked after the points and that's what came out:
Roddick lost in the semifinal last year and now in the QF: -200 points which means: He has 4335 points
Roger fell out in the R16 and now he is in the QF -> +100 points - 4475 points
Ferrero was in the QF last year and this year too so he has 4145 points
The standing right now if nobody will be in the next round:
No1: ROGER 4475p
No2: A-Rod 4335p
No3: Ferrero 4145p
If both players wins today:
No1: ROGER: 4675p
No2: Ferrero: 4345p
No3: A-Rod: 4335p
Which means Andy has lost his no 1. and if Roger plays all year like he playes now Rod will never be no 1 again ;)

no, i'm not mad at u!
as i already said before, everybody's opinion is different!
wouldn't it boring, if everybody would like the same thing?? don't think so!!!
only a big serve and 'big help' made him what he's now???
no way!!!
u really do need more than just a big serve!

I hope Andy can get his number 1 ranking back. It's fine that you don't like him, everyone has their opinions but I think he's more than a big serve and I don't think you can get to number one by a few lucky line calls. I hope either Safin or Agassi win, I can't decide between the two.

I've already said my opinion I don't want to start again...:P
Hate me all you want I don't care but everyone with some common sense could see that the particullar line calls cost Nalbandian the match he was defenitely better than A-Rod (that's why is he asked in every interview if he still thinks about that SF), than he did what every human being would have done: broke down, couldn't concentrate, got confused... that was an unjustible decision and once again: I HATE INJUSTICE....
Ooops I started again, never mind... I know it's not A-Rod's fault...this isn't why I don't like him that was just the cream on the top of the cake if you know what I mean...
And I hope he will not get his no ranking back :P There some other player out there that are better than him
Davaj Marat! Vamos Nalbandian! ;)

Awww, nooooo! Don't think I was hating on you! I wasn't doing that at all! I understand what you mean. I didn't actually see the match as I watching Wales play soccer plus I didn't have the channel they were showing the semis on but I did see the one line call from the crowd I think and that's bad. There's plenty of people that don't like Roddick. Some people do and some people don't, same with all things really.I have to say, Nalbandian has improved imensely since his Wimbledon final and since last US Open I think. This could be his year and I hope he beats Federer!

Okay, I know...I got carried away, I guess...it's just my favourite national soccerplayer just died 2 days ago and i'm still a bit sad and angry about it...:(
And I hope so too (I mean Nalbi beating Federer-though I like him too) :D

Hi glamour-gal! :) Thanks *hugs back*
Federer against Nalbi is on! It's going to be a great match, at the beginning it seemed to be a one sided match, but Nalbi started to play better and now it's 2 stes-1 for Federer, but he is in the lead in the 4th set... Vamos Nalbi, do something! :D
glamour-gal
Jan 28th, 2004, 02:06 PM
....lol... your welcome!! :D
so you do like soccer as well???
well, the 'vamos' didn't help your friend!! :(
i was able to watch the whole match, there were quite a few good points in it!
esp the third set was pretty good and though!!
hmmmm, dunno..... should i be for federer or ferrero in the semi final??
who's your fave then??
AND DON'T FORGET TO WATCH MARAT'S MATCH TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!! :D
