Title: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: Karabiner on July 06, 2007, 07:06:24 PM Over £4M has been matched on Betfair on Justine Henin to win her semi-final at 1/20 or lower.
And a shed-load at other prices. Henin is presently 0-5 down in the third set ;gobsmacked; Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: Linux on July 06, 2007, 07:16:08 PM ZOMG (not been sarcastic btw) :)
Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: bolt pp on July 06, 2007, 07:17:33 PM I'm so glad she lost!
she cant take a shot without looking up at her trainer, she spent all the intervals in her chair just looking up to her team in her crowd and literally before every serve and return, was really pissing me off, your not supposed to have coaching during a match, i was cheering for the other bird, she played blinding though and deserved it, especially coming from a set down. maybe if henin had concentrated a little bit on the match and not her trainer she would've got a result, what a div! Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: Karabiner on July 06, 2007, 07:23:00 PM Another great match with Roddick now in a fifth set with Gasquet playing brilliant stuff.
What are these froggies on ? Gimme some !! Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: spruce goose on July 06, 2007, 07:26:05 PM ive just travelled on london transport with a group of french students, theyre overdosing on garlic!
Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: kinboshi on July 06, 2007, 08:20:41 PM Roddick beaten as well! Gasquet came back from 2 sets down to win.
Earlier on, there was an even bigger upset though. Federer dropped a set ;gobsmacked; Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: bobby1 on July 06, 2007, 08:42:19 PM that was carnage, great viewing tho.

Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: kinboshi on July 08, 2007, 03:00:18 PM Federer v Nadal final. Simmering along nicely, tie-break for the first set.
Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: Jim-D on July 08, 2007, 03:01:05 PM Some great tennis being played also, could be a classic.
Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: kinboshi on July 08, 2007, 03:05:37 PM Hope so. I can see Federer moving through the gears though, and he's unplayable on grass when he's like that.
Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: kinboshi on July 08, 2007, 03:07:25 PM Challenge by Nadal on set point - and it's given in for him!
replay the point - which Nadal wins. 6-6! Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: kinboshi on July 08, 2007, 03:09:48 PM Unforced error, after unforced error! 7-7, they are human after all.
Federer closes it out and wins the set. Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: kinboshi on July 08, 2007, 05:28:47 PM Some great tennis being played also, could be a classic. It's certainly turned out that way! Two sets all. Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: kinboshi on July 08, 2007, 05:49:38 PM Federer breaks in the final set after probably the best rally of the match.
;tightend; Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: kinboshi on July 08, 2007, 06:01:04 PM Great match. Brilliant final, and Federer just managed to produce when it mattered.
Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: Flea on July 08, 2007, 06:02:02 PM Surprise! Surprise! Federer won.
Good match though. Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: kinboshi on July 08, 2007, 06:04:23 PM :hello: and welcome to blonde!
Much closer than before though - and Nadal pushed him further than anyone has on grass. Wonder if Federer can push Nadal as closely on clay? Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: Flea on July 08, 2007, 06:07:23 PM Thanks for that.
Tough call really - Nadal is younger and already seems invincible, might need a new young player to come through on clay. Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon !

LMFAO, so true, glad to know it wasnt just me getting annoyed by that, still wanted her to win though! Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: Robert HM on July 08, 2007, 06:16:47 PM Backed Nadal at 3.75, layed at 2.90 after the knee issue. No great profit but better than nothing.

First set to Murray and Jankovic. ;D Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: Flea on July 08, 2007, 07:37:21 PM Lucky Murray - if they win she's promised to kiss him all over.
Now that's what you call an incentive. Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: Indestructable on July 08, 2007, 08:10:50 PM 3 match points
;yippee; Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: Indestructable on July 08, 2007, 08:11:46 PM We have a winner. I love to cheer on British winners. ;applause;
Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: Flea on July 08, 2007, 08:14:10 PM Good on them - his brother looked well pleased for him aswell.
Title: Re: Huge shock is on at Wimbledon ! Post by: KingPoker on July 08, 2007, 09:18:56 PM I watched the quarters of the mixed doubles with murray in and it was a great game, they dont take it so seriously so its much more of a spectators sport than the singles in my opinion.
WD them! |
