I talked to Jamie about 45 minutes after his match tonight and he said losing in Dallas early might have been the best thing for him. He took a day totally off from tennis, came back refreshed, had some great w/o's with Keith and says he feels like a different player. I'm calling for a mild upse...

Rd1: There was mixed success on the Mallorcan clay for this weekend's 10K qualifying. Abbie Probert is still shaking off the rust after a 6 month layoff due to a wrist injury and she was outplayed 6-1, 6-3 by the 13th seed in round 1. There was better news regarding 10th seed Kirsty Woolley. She over...
We did this for the US Open and I thought we could do the same thing for the Australian Open.
Steven was the US Open champion, who will reign down under !!
Basically, once the draw is released, you have to predict the winners of every single match from round 1 right through the the final, so you hav...

Uhmm, hello... I have just seen the pre-official list to the challenger in my city. Ya know I'm the correspondent, and such. I am surprised, it is fulfilled with Brits, of course Boggo including! Are you planning to colonize my country, eh? Revenge for cheap working power on the islands? :...
