the best that man can get.....really?


i've been playing and watching so much tennis these days it's not funny...

most recently, the season ending ATP masters cup in shanghai produced some outstanding tennis.... there were the usual suspects around, like roger and novak, the new dudes like gilles simon and tsongo... and also the last minute call ups like.... like the one time ex-lover of martina hingis, radek stepanek......


undoubtedly, the headlines that flooded the tennis scene was the anouncement of mr rafa's withdrawal from the masters cup... fatigues and injuries were the main cause of his absent...


one of the match that i manage to catch was the murray-federer match, which saw roger's quest for another season ending master cup end.........


3 setter, 4 hour game.... it was a really close one, ... after a long game, roger lost, 4th defeat in 6 games against murray....... temporary blip?? hiccup??...


i'm a roger fan that has to admit that he's definately losing his touch which saw him claims ridiculous amount of grand slams and titles .......


maybe it's the curse of the gilllete endorsement....


hendry... not really showing the catalonians why he was purchased with that price tag....

tiger .... he's still good... very good when he plays.... but he isn't right now with a knee injury

and roger??? lost his no.1 spot since 2002?? 2003??, unsuccessful in defending his wimbledon crown... and only a couple of titles this year...not really the roger that we have come to know.


maybe it's time to change to phillip shave.....
