August 14, 200818 yr Author Hopefully the IOC looks into a way of keeping this from happening. This might be hearsay, but I thought I heard that a year ago a couple of these girls were in some form of competition and were only listed as 12-13 there. A year later and they are all 16. I really don't know how to answer your question. It's just a shame.
August 14, 200818 yr Author Did I hear right that James Blake upset Roger Federer...and no one has posted anything about it?
August 14, 200818 yr Did I hear right that James Blake upset Roger Federer...and no one has posted anything about it? Blake beats Federer in straight sets Blake was 0-for-8 against Federer until then. He was already going to lose the No. 1 ranking, and it seems unlikely he'll ever regain it again.
August 14, 200818 yr Author Well that is a huge win for Blake...maybe we have a shot at a medal in Tennis. I didn't think we had a chance with Roddick choosing not to play.
August 14, 200818 yr Federer is falling very, very fast. I get the feeling he'll retire after 2009 Wimbledon, if not sooner. It will be interesting to see how far he gets in the US Open now that his veneer of invincibility has been stripped away.
August 14, 200818 yr I really think that Federer is not having fun anymore. It looks like he doesn't enjoy playing tennis.
August 14, 200818 yr Both Williams sisters lost their matches today. Also, the IOC isn't going to investigate the Chinese gymnasts because they don't want to ruffle the feathers of the host city. They accept the passports as valid IDs and they are going to bury their heads in the sand.
August 14, 200818 yr Author Well the IOC is wrong on that one. And very surprsing the Williams sisters lost, they still have their doubles though don't they?
August 14, 200818 yr Is it my imagination, or are the uniforms worn by the field hockey goalies the most unflattering outfits in all of sports?
August 14, 200818 yr I get the feeling he'll retire after 2009 Wimbledon, if not sooner. It will be interesting to see how far he gets in the US Open now that his veneer of invincibility has been stripped away. Doesn't he need 3 more of the "slam" wins to pass Sampras? He will not retire in the next year unless he wins 3 more of those. To get beat in the finals of these slams doesn't mean he's lost it.
August 14, 200818 yr He made it to the semis of the Australian, the finals of the French and Wimbledon. While we aren't used to seeing him lose, let's see how he does in the US Open. I think if he loses in the US Open and has another poor performance in Australia to start next year, it could be the end.
August 15, 200818 yr What is that pad or bandage on Walsh's shoulder? BTW, they are looking like they may go down in the first set.
