Jenifer Capriati

[KimC]

I thought I'd start a thread for all the Capriati fans out there.

Jenifer is in the semi-finals of the tournament in Berlin tomorrow, she seems to be getting back to some good form lately.

jen is my fave female player out there!!
i always admirred her!

[KimC]

Does anyone know if Jen's dating Matthew Perry? Someone told me the other day that they were together.

[Seles3]

Amelia Mauresmo def J. Capriati 6-2 6-0 ewwwwwww ugh Jen what the hell was this!

She said Matthew is just a really good friend.

i guess they were together, from what i read. however this was some time ago... last year i think.
now i've no idea....

[KimC]

Aww poor Jen she played a really bad match today, I was watching and I dont know what happened. She came out and was playing pretty well and then just fell apart.

Thanks for letting me know about Jen and Matt

[Hantuchova Fan]

Jen and Matt never dated. They were just friends. btw, they sound like kool people when u say "jen and matt" instead of Jennifer Capriati and Matthew Perry

[glamour-gal]

never? really?
well i don't care, the papers always write s**t....

[KimC]

Does anyone know if Jenifer is going to be playing Eastbourne?

[glamour-gal]

dunno, sorry!

[KimC]

Jenifer's playing in rome this week so good luck to her. I heard that her and Serena are on course for a semi final meeting.

[muffins]

And Jennifer beat her to progress to the final! Well done Jen Jen! :)

[glamour-gal]

was watching jen's match, i'm soooo happy for her!!!!

[KimC]

Well done Jen :) Wow this is the first time she has beaten Serena since the quarter-finals of wimbledon 2001 I think.

Good luck to Jen in the finals :)

[Seles3]

Capriati loses to Mauresmo AGAIN

6-3 3-6 6-7(7-9)

[glamour-gal]

unfortunately :-(

[KimC]

Such a shame I really thought this would be Jen's time to beat Amile, after her win against Serena. But I guess it wasen't her day.

[glamour-gal]

@kimc
as for your question, nope i didn't watch the final. did you?

[Hantuchova Fan]

that must have been a great match to watch, i mean 7-6 (9-7) in the third. poor jennifer, i think she deserves to win this.

[glamour-gal]

yeah probably.
hope she will do better next time!!

Yep I watched it, well what they showed of it on eurosport :)

I'm jealous. American TV basically covers no tennis from the end of the Austrialian Open to the beginning of the French Open

that's pretty bad, isn't it?

That surprises me I thought that they showed loads of tennis in the US. Nevermind though you have the french open and wimbledon coming up soon, you get coverage of those don't you?

[Hantuchova Fan]

yes fortunately, but they only show americans until the qquarterfinals. for example, they would rather show Ashley harkleroad (USA) vs. qualifier than an early clash between Kim Clijsters and Mary Pierce just because Ashley Harkleroad is American

[KimC]

Really thats kinda ridiculous, so do they only show matches with americans in in the early rounds?

[Hantuchova Fan]

yes, it does not matter if you are ranked 29849238, if you are American, the TV here will show that instead of Kim, JHH, etc.

[glamour-gal]

that's really strange, isn't it? :blueeek:

[muffins]

British TV does show British players but I doubt they'd ever show Arvind Parmer playing over Federer! Henman is featured quite a lot but to be fair he is quite highly ranked.

[KimC]

Yeah the UK definatly show every match of Henmans that they can but not always Gregs

[glamour-gal]

i guess in every country its the same; they always try to show their players, even if they arent that popular......


i kinda like to watch eurosport, the matches there are always good, i mean they dont show evertime player a and player b; it changes a lot.

[KimC]

Jenifer lost today to Myskina. She played a bad match and also her legs were strapped so maby that had something to do with it. But it's going to be an all Russian final on saturday.

[glamour-gal]

couldn't see her match.
was she really playing that bad?

feel sorry for her that she's out!
