Who am I?* - Colm Wilkinson

OK. Wimbledon was getting a lil boring for me. Hingis and Sugiyama are out. So is Hantuchova. And Morigami missed out on upsetting Venus. Li Na din even come to Wimbledon this year. Sharapova's screams were getting annoying (so i'm glad she's out too) and no surprise that Henman is out. Men's game is getting a tad predictable it's raining off and on every day (except Sunday when there were no matches scheduled!).

So thankfully, we had some pretty good matches yesterday - unfortunately, i had to follow most of them via online updates (no thanks to Astro Wah Lai Toi). I managed to catch the first game of the day on tele - Venus v. Svetlana. It was pretty good but Venus was in top form. Svetlana tried her best but her opponent was just too good. What a pity. It was nice to see Svetlana actually applauding one of Venus' brilliant shot at one point. That's something u dun see often, if at all!

Then, there was the "pretty girls" quarter-finals - Vaidisova v Ivanovic! Too bad they had to play wif each other cuz that meant one will have to go out. But it also guaranteed that at least one will be in the semis. In the end, it was the sweet Ivanovic.



Finally, the Hewitt v Djokovic. Djokovic sent Leyton-COME-ON-Hewitt back to Adelaide! Yes! And thankfully, the game finished before the rain started.

But to keep us entertained while we wait for the rain to clear and for the anticipated Federer-Nadal clash - we have the man himself, Djokovic!

This guy is an entertainer - and he is one who wants to have fun, and has it! I like this guy!

Here're a couple of clips of him imitating other players' serve. Hilarious!!!!! Try guessing who he is supposed to be!



Here's another clip - but of older players, no longer in the circuit. Only oldies like me would recognise the serves!


And finally... this left me laughing out loud! Warning: topless images in this clip!


Hahaha! Nice one! I like this guy! Djokovic's a real Djok-er!!!! ;-)

Let's see if it's still raining...

there seemed to be an air of inevitability in the nadal-djokovic match. what was his injury exactly?

even though it was predictable i'm still looking forward to federer vs nadal! :)

so sad. apparently, it was a combi of toe infection, recurring back problem and exhaustion. nadal said he felt sorry for him but methinks nadal secretly must have been glad after djokovic's not too flattering impression of his service!

federer v nadal. i was hoping it wont go down to that cuz if anyone can beat federer, it's that spaniard. let's see how later.
