Top four men in the semis. Hard to predict the winner (I hope it's RF) but at least am almost sure it won't be Murray.

As for the ladies, looks like Serena's back but I think it would be good for the No. 1 to finally win a Slam.

Your take?

My permutations for the mens finals are
if Djoker wins against RF the he wins the title regardless of who he faces in the finals.
If RF beats Djoker, he wins if Murray beats Nadal.
If Nadal beats Murray he wins if RF beats Djoker.
Murray will be beaten in the finals by both RF and Djoker.

For the ladies I rooting for Serena. Luv that woman.
She's those that
'u hate to see her leave, but love to watch her walk away'

I like the way draws are made in Tennis....the top four seeds cannot face each other before the semis. I don't think Nadal is ni top form at the moment, i wouldn't be surprised if Murray beats him. The guy collapsed in an interview recently...something to do with weather conditions there! The winner between Djok and RF will take it.

I recon u didnt watch him last night. Nadal was in top form against Roddick. He battered him mercilessly. Seemed back to his best.

Taz, I hope you saw Nadal against Roddick - the guy has improved greatly from earlier matches in the tournament.

Damn, Nadal seems to have lost his steel. He's lost his killer instinct.
He breaks, then gets broken. He gets to break point but doesnt take advantage. Now he's been broken.
Too many short balls. Nikufyam.

At the end of it all, I feel Djokovic faked an injury to break Nadals momentum. Gamemanship.
And it worked.
Djoker holds 3 grand slams now. Incredible.

Nadal has now lost all his matches against Djokovic this season, the Serbian is just unstoppable...I don't think Nadal will ever regain back the number 1 ranking. RF should retire he has done enough in tennis, if i'm not wrong the guy holds the most grand slam titles of all time.

It was rather obvious Nadal had no answers to Djokovic and he was so scared to use his back-hand such was Djokovic's dominance and i was astonished at one time Rafa's forehand collapsed completely. Rafa needs to see a game out if he is holding serve and this is where the mentality comes in,it was quite clear Djokovic was stronger mentality and it was always a tough ask for Nadal not mentioning Djokovic had endured a 5 set thriller against Foger and this too alot away from him which makes this win all the sweeter.

On Serena it was understandable not acceptable since it was 9/11 memorial on home court on a grand slam final and in my view the Umpire should have replayed the point thatn award the point to Sam.it was a big big call by the umpire on a game of such magnitude.

The greatest danger in times of turbulence is not the turbulence; it is to act with yesterday's logic.
