Title: Tennis
Post by: endfire79 on June 07, 2014, 09:26:48 AM
Strange, I noticed no tennis threads here.

Lately Eugenie Bouchard has been making some waves and played against Sharapova.  She lost, but I predict big things for Bouchard.  Congrats!
I heard she met Sharapova when she was 8 years young in Florida.

It's been pleasant to watch a women's tennis match and not be annoyed within seconds by one of the competitors screaming like she's been stabbed every goddamn time she volleys.

sorry to be partial, but she's a local girl!  :)

That young Aussie who beat Nadal did very well too.

Nothing wrong with being partial. Hell, sports is pretty much based around people being partial to their favorites.
