Huyu jamaa Rafael Nadal nilikuwa namzimia sana. Sijui ni nini kilitoa kwenye game. Aliwahi kuwa no 1 kwa muda mrefu wakinyanganyana namba na Djonkovic.

Rodger Federra hawezi kusalimika kwa huyu jamaa aisee.

I agree with u. Djonkovic ndio mpinzani wake wa ukweli. Hawa ni kama Leonel Messi na Christiano Ronaldo kwa sasa. Natamani wakutane na Federra afu jamaa achukue taji.

Fainali kati ya Venus na Serena ni lini? Hii sio ya kukosa.

Wanaume nilikuwa nawafagilia sana Andre Agassi na Petre Sampras, wanawake ni Martina Hingis na Anna Kournikova. Naona siku hizi yamenipita mbali.

Haha, kama unataka kuona Agassi na Sampras match zao lazima zitakua History channel, at least Martina Hingis still plays double matches.

Its unfair to say that, Nadal has won everywhere, as a matter of fact, if he wins tomorrow, he'll become the only player in history to win at least two Grand slams in each of the 4 slams. If he wins tomorrow he'll have 15 Grand slam singles titles and based on his clay court dominance, he will have a greater chance to win Roland Garros as well so by the end of this year he might have 16 Grand slams, only 1 less than Federer going into next year. He'll have a 10-2 record vs Federer in Grand slam finals, Federer's only edge vs Rafa is on Grass at Wimbledon where he leads 2-1.
