You Heard it Here Last - Tsonga over Federer in a Perfectly Scripted Match - also Pennetta and Hantuchova Together Outrageously

RR Here -

I am on yesterday. Right now I am watching Hantuchova and Pennetta - ahhhh - but the match of the day )yesterday) would have to be Tsonga-Fed. Holy crap! It was like, a movie. The dive on set point that for a bit there appeared to cost him the match... it was like the movie "Wimbledon", where everyone dove on every other shot - primarily Murphy Jensen, brother of P's new boyfriend. Ha ha I am just kidding - I should make that clear because we have gotten in trouble before for joking around like that. To Luke's significant other out there - just kidding!

But anyway, the dive, the sore arm, 5-1 Fed in the 3rd, then the awesome comeback, where Fed was helpless, Tsonga was a monster. Really impressive. Nobody does that to Federer... except Nadal. and Tsonga has done that to Nadal too! Tsonga still has a little bit of a puppy vibe, like he is really still maturing or something. Still a lot of wasted energy. So he could really be better? Or maybe that is his strength - exuberance, energy, etc. Anyway, if it had been in a movie, you would have said, "that is so stupid. NO one dives like that, and that would never happen..." but it did!!!!!

Ahh Pennetta and Hanny... who cares who wins.... I wish they were playing best of 100 sets.

Almost caught up now...

Gwa, Pennetta won it and, she just looks so happy when she wins. And... and... they actually showed Pennetta and Hanny kissing at the net.. and then showed it again... in slow motion... it went on for like a minute..... ahhhhhhh.....

RR out

Tsonga v. Monaco

Wow, tiebreak in the fourth, five all in the breaker. The crowd is all nuts! I like both these guys, but I still hold it against Tsonga for not shaking the chair's hand when he was in the final of the Australian Open (The French! They can very arrogant, as can the Argentines... and well, everyone). I am a manners fanatic. Especially when it comes to the chair. Just treat them with respect, that's all I ask.

I am sick. The vague guilt I have at spending a day watching tennis is diminished slightly when I am sick because- well, I am sick and can't go to the gym or do other stuff non-sick people do. That said, I'm mad that I may miss a half marathon I've trained hard for and I feel like shit, which sucks. And am slightly worried it's swine flu...(don't go there, don't go there).

Monaco just fell going for a shot. I LOVE that effort. Love it.

Match point. My heart feels sad for Monaco. I can sort of barely watch. I'm half looking, and then looking away. Like a kid looking through thier fingers during a scary Disney movie. Sometimes, I get stressed watching ends of matches.

Oh they were so great at the NET! What great men. What great tennis. Wow. I love tennis.

Yours Truly,
