Where did all the diehard tennis fans go? Are they all on vacation in Norway?
James Blake had an epic battle with Juan Del Potro, who won the 2009 US Open versus clean shaven Roger Federer, and they get no love. It was only 10-8 in the 5th set, but it was about as old news as steroids are to Mark McGwire.
For the first time since 2003 do a duo of Americans have a shot at winning both the men’s and women’s singles championships. But people are more worried about the future of a jerkless American Idol and the drama of a bunch of dweebs on a Shore in Jersey. Where are our principles?
It may not be Wimbledon or Rowland Garros but it is the first major of the year. Possibly 2 of the greatest players of all-time are in contention, and still at their prime nonetheless. With 10 legitimate contenders, it is up for grabs on who is going to win. This is the early 90’s NBA for the tennis world.
What’s better than waking up at 3 AM to watch great tennis? Crickey, NOTHING!
