I think all the people who are picking Wimbledon are picking Wimbledon because it was the Slam where Nole got eliminated the earliest.

I had forgotten about that!

I did pick Wimbledon, though. With sensational upsets on both sides, the return of Safin, the rise of Jie Zheng, a high quality match with Venus against Serena, and the best men's final in years, if not ever, it's hard to compete with Wimbledon 2008.

Runner Up: Australian Open. Davenport created early buzz. The Serbians took out the Williams sisters. SO many exciting matches. Hewitt/Baghdatis, Federer/Tipsarevic, Roddick/Kohlschreiber, Tsonga/Murray, Jankovic/Paszek, Sharapova/Henin, Hantuchova/Ivanovic. It was some good stuff.

Maybe we should do most disappointing tournament of 08?
