[Elelaytet]

I get to sleep tonight!


While I sleep - go Hantuyama!!! Please.

Also, it's nice Sania's getting some matches in.

[formobilagsw]

TC will be showing Women's Doubles Final at 11pm!!!

I can't believe that I have not had one complaint about scheduling or slam coverage this whole tournament. It's been nothing but FANTASTIC! Even ESPN has done a MUCH better job than they have in years past....

[mloversia]

Go Dani! Go Ai!

Hantuyama vs ...
I can't think of an acronym for the Williams Sisters.

SerVena.

[EnvellFen]

SerVena.

nice!

[plaiskegizils]

SerVena.

I like it.

[JakeBarkings]

SerVena.

Nice.


Now let me take a Nap so I can watch SerVena win and then another nap and then watch Rafa devour Hot Sauce.

[Bondjrno]

SerVena.

Remember when they were bringing the bottled water to market? It was called SerVenRich. But I don't think it ever got further than some test marketing, did it?

I don't remember that. I only started following tennis closely in 2002 for the first time since the 80s. If the water came out in that window, I completely missed it. If it came out later, I still missed it.

It got to the marketplace Craig, but not much further. It was a deal Richard had negotiated for them, had to be early in the 2000s. I can even almost picture seeing Richard drinking some. It was a fortified water.

[enurneAcourdy]

It's cool to see Serena playing hard and going all out in this match. I love watching SerVena play doubles (and Sugiyama too for that matter).

Wow, I barely remember it.

[enurneAcourdy]

They just played a crazy quick-fire rally and Ai Sugiyama was laughing almost uncontrollably. I can't think of anything about her that I don't find endearing.

[enurneAcourdy]

I don't know if anyone else is watching this, but does anyone feel like Serena is going out of her way to hit all of her hardest shots right at Daniela? It's kind of sadistic.

[fuesquemill]

Oh, she'll peg anyone available. But with Ai back and Dani at net, she gets a lot of chances.

[enurneAcourdy]

And they've done it. Congratulations Venus and Serena! Venus' 17th Grand Slam title and Serena's 19th!!!
