Limericks
 


I found some limericks on another message board. Some are quite hilarious.
I've posted the British player ones. The ones about Henman are a little harsh. I especially like the Rusedski one:

Andy Murray:

[1] There was a young fellow named Murray
Who aimed for the top in a hurry
He drank more than he ought
Threw up on the court
And then blamed his mum for her curry

[2] British tennis is in for a fright
Cos there's a new star now in sight
With a strain and a tear,
And unfortunate hair,
Young Murray is hitting the heights

Tim Henman

[1] There once was a tennis player called Tim
Who turned up at major champs with a whim
'This is the year that I win
And there will be such a big din
Oops sorry think I'm just being a bit dim'

[2] There was a tennis player named Tim
Whose play was rather thin
He kept saying he could win
What - did he think we were dim?
Or was he talking about his twin?

Greg Rusedski

Said the veteran player Rusedski
I consider Tim Henman quite pesky
He spoiled all my fun
Stopped me being No.1
Still, at least I'm much better than Petchey

Nadal:

There once was a boy called Rafa
who just kept getting sharper and sharper
they said: stick to the clay'
but the boy said 'no way'
for the kid intends to go farther

Roddick:

There is a big server named Andy
He finds all those free points quite handy.
He hits aces for fun,
His forehands like a gun.
But his volley is barely up to club standard.

Sharapova:

The lovely young lass, Sharapova
Came along like a bright supernova
But the Belgians came back
And then Lindsay attacked . . .
Seems her reign at the top is now ova.

I'm surprised you managed to find them among all the mud being flung about on that board today!

I'll admit it was quite tricky Madeleine, half those posters seem to be quite crazy. They really need a more efficient filtering service to separate all the dross from the interesting information.

Found another limerick from a female fan:

A young tennis player called Andy
With a ball and a racket quite handy
He burst on the scene
In a tournie called Queens
And the best is he’s awesome eye candy!

A young British player called Tim


Tall, dark, handsome and suitably slim


Despite years at the top


Still considered a flop


For Wimbledon failing to win.
