For those of you unaware, I'm a tennis fan too. I'm afforded the opportunity to watch all the tennis I want, live. This year I've redone my allegiances, and decided to chose the top woman and top man. Ya, it's kind of chickenshit. But I'm a fan of finesse games, and not the big server base line games. To be honest I've been a fan of henin for years. Her new focus and dedication to her fitness have me thinking she is something exceptional. Assuming she can recover from her loss in the semi-finals at Wimbledon..to some no name french girl. Not to belittle the accomplishment of the aforementioned french girl, but she is going nowhere. Due to some abnormal loyalty to her coach, she may have a little hindrance there. She may need a staffing change.
The day she lost, Andy Roddick lost as well... I'm not sure what to say about Andy. He may need a coaching change as well. He has improved over the past year but I'm just not sure it's enough.
Unknown to some is that today was day 2 of "Le Tour" actually it was day 3 but stage 2. Stage One Robbie Mcewen pulled off a masterful win after falling out of the pack with a mechanical failure, then coming back in in the last 5k to move up to the front and pull off the win. It will not be his last...... BTW his team sponsor is a pregnancy test
