SHE IS DESTROYING MATE!!!!

Been watching, admittedly distracted by the laptop...

But she is moving without issue. Coming to the net, running back and fourth. Didn't even have a break point against her, very rare you see that, normally someone can at least get to see a break point against a gun.

Get on Kim, she's my dream team captain and a gun. I should've put a bet on paszek over wozniacki, would've paid well/
Title: Re: Wimbledon Sportal DT
Post by: Nails on June 29, 2012, 01:54:22 AM
My super Smokey Paszek wins again!

She's had games on days back to back now.

Cruised to victory 6-2, 6-1 today. Great player to be in only 3% of teams :)

well strange thing is even though she won, her odds have gone out from $13 to $15.. so i might put a few more bucks on her

Despite winning Wimbledon twice, Aus Open once and US open once?

It's not like he's a p.o.s. off clay. He's still one of top 3 in the world off clay as well.

And then they left the court for 30 minutes.....



Only lost 6 players so far, and og the three i have in play tonight, won't mind if Djoker loses. :P Expecting Kimmy to get through, that'll be nice but difficult, and Troicki has a nice break on Monaco intot he 2nd set. :)
