Tennis anyone?

[a kennedy]

French Open starts today....coverage on ESPN2, 4:00am CST.

[a kennedy]

1. Awwwww, come on......nobody watching tennis?

[joeybee12]

2. Two things...how did Security let that guy on the court...

And why do Sloane and Serena always draw each other in the first round. Well, if Sloane got her act together and starting winning again, she'd be seeded and this wouldn't happen.

4. Sloane played Venus.

And beat her.

[joeybee12]

5. Yeah, got the wrong Williams..

It's a good win for Sloane, although it doesn't mean she'll get far...she hasn't really shown anything of late to make me think she's turned things around.

[a kennedy]

3. Just saw my DVR'd footage of Sloan Stevens eliminating Venus......

D*mn. But good for Sloan, now if she can keep it going....although I'll miss Venus.

6. Christina McHale lost.....

but Jon Isner won and so did Serena.....

[bigwillq]

7. Serena!

I really like Isner.

Indifferent on McHale. She really doesn't do much for me.

8. Came over to see if you were all

here, I knew you would be.

Don't want to be a spoiler so I will just say hello and mention that one of my favorite things about the French is to see Fabrice Santoro. Loved watching him play back in the day☺.

9. Spoiler

No. 3 woman Simona Halep ousted by Marjana Lucic-Baroni, who last summer knocked Halep out of the US Open.

[a kennedy]

10. I think Simona was hurting or something....she looked off to me....

But then, revenge is sweet also.

[a kennedy]

11. Well it's Serena and Sloane left standing on the USA women's side......

And they'll play in the quarters......yikes....guess I'll be rooting for Serena.

[a kennedy]

12. and oh my gawd....the screamer is now a grunter....she's got a cold....

MUTE , MUTE, MUTE is what I have to do to watch her......she's just gotten terrible......just terrible. 😛😡😁

[bigwillq]

13. The screamer

is silenced. Sent home from Paris before the quarterfinals.

I actually have grown to like her.

[joeybee12]

14. I don't know if I like her...

But she worked her ass off to get back to the top after very serious shoulder surgery...I give her a lot of credit.

[bigwillq]

15. Actually, that is why I started to like her.

I respect the hard work she put in. And I feel she really grew up. She is kind of one of the elder stateswomen of the game now and, to me anyway, it seems like she kind of has cherished and embraced that role.

[a kennedy]

16. Can you really listen to a whole match of that sound she emits????

I can't, I can only listen to about two of her service games, and then she's on mute. Ugh..... and it's got nothing to do with how hard she works.

[bigwillq]

17. I can.

I really don't have an issue with the grunts and groans and screams, and I've seen some of the "loud" ones in person. Doesn't bother me.

[bigwillq]

18. Spoiler

Serena defeats Errani 6-1, 6-3 to advance to the SEMIS!!!

[a kennedy]

19. Serena has owned her.......

Great job Serena.....

[bigwillq]

20. Errani just doesn't have a big enough serve

especially the second serve, to beat Serena with.

[RockaFowler]

21. Can anyone beat her in the Finals??

This is great for Serena!!

[bigwillq]

22. I don't think so.

The other semi is Ana Ivanovic (8-1 Serena Head-to-head) against Lucie Safarova (8-0 Serena H2H).

[bigwillq]

23. Spoiler

Novak defs. Nadal in straight sets in the Quarters.

Just Nadal's second loss ever at the French Open.

[joeybee12]

24. He'll never win another one...

Last year really was a fluke, and he made it to the quarters without playing a ranked player...

[bigwillq]

25. I have to tend to agree with you.

[joeybee12]

26. Bookmark this thread!

That will never happen again!

[bigwillq]

27. Spoiler

No. 13 Lucie Safarova advances to her first Grand Slam final with a 7-5 7-5 win over Ana Ivanovic at the French Open.

[bigwillq]

28. Spoiler

Serena battles past Bacsinszky and into French Open final!!!!!

[RockaFowler]

29. I hope she's OK for Saturday

[a kennedy]

30. I could just slap me.......I stopped and deleted my DVR of the match....

Serena had lost the first set was losing the second coughing so bad, looked like she was going to quit.....and I stopped the DVR and deleted it....found out later on ESPN that she came back and won. I didn't see it.
