Already Time for the US Open?
I can’t even count how many times I saw this commercial during the Wimbledon coverage, and yet, I miss it now.
Again, congrats to Fed and Serena!

Quick Wimbly Update

It was ladies day at SW19 and all of the matches were pretty routine. Venus, Serena, and Elena Dementieva won in straight sets and Dinara Safina won in 3 sets. This should set up some pretty interesting semifinal matches between Safina and Venus, as well as, Dementieva and Serena.
The guys are up tomorrow and it will be fun to see how Murray has recovered from his tough five-setter against Wawrinka. Hewitt-Roddick should be close, as well as, Haas-Djokovic, particularly since Haas recently defeated Djokovic at Halle. I expect Fed to defeat Karlovic, but expect that match to definitely be a serving clinic.

Wimbledon Power Rankings

We’re halfway through Wimbledon and some players have already shown that they have a chance to win the title. Haven’t watched any coverage yet? Have only seen a few matches? Well, here is a list of who to keep an eye on during the final week of the Championships Wimbledon.
Men:
1) Roger Federer- He had a small hiccup in the third round when he dropped a set, but he has, otherwise, been solid.
2) Andy Murray: The hometown favorite has demolished his last two foes.
3) Novak Djokovic: He has quietly moved through the draw with ease.
4) Tomas Berdych: He impressively dismissed Davydenko 6-2, 6-3, 6-2, in the third round and he can give Roddick a run for his money in the fourth.
5) Lleyton Hewitt: He has resurged his career as of late. This has been an impressive showing for the Aussie, who dismissed del Potro in straight sets in the second round.
Women:
1) Venus Willams: The defending champion has been in great form.
2) Serena Williams: She has struggled a bit this year, but she has looked solid during this tournament.
3) Caroline Wozniacki: She recently won Eastborne and is looking like she may be ready to win her first Grand Slam.
4) Victoria Azarenka: She has been impressive in the Grand Slams this season and she is looking to improve upon her quarterfinal showing at Roland Garros.
5) Ana Ivanovic: She has enjoyed a return back to form at Wimbledon. Her serve still isn’t fantastic, but it’s getting the job done.

The rumors seem to be true because Adam Scott was seen in Ana Ivanovic’s box today. The two of them have been linked since they were seen together at the beach just before the Australian Open. I guess she is taking her “Aussie Ana” title to heart!

Del Potro Shocked at Wimbledon
Fifth seeded Juan Martin del Potro wasn’t able to continue his momentum after a stron showing at the French Open, as he was upset by Lleyton Hewitt in the second round 6-3, 7-5, 7-5. Del Potro has never made it past the second round at Wimbledon, but many would have expected him to do so this year, as he is a much better player now than in previous years.
“Oh, it was a big win. I wanted to beat a top-five guy,” said Hewitt. “These are the places you want to do it, too.”
Who knows, maybe that exo win over Nadal gave Hewitt some confidence?
