U.S Open Coming Soon!

The U.S Open Tennis Championship starts Monday and I'm sooo excited. I can't wait to watch good tennis matches again! Hopefully I'll find the channel that is showing the tournament..hehe

I'll be keeping you up to date on what goes on....but until then, here's a picture from a one-on-one match between tennis champs and rivals, Federer and Nadal which took place on the streets of Manhatten as an exhibition before the tournament.....

Lets hope we see them both in the finals for yet another awesome final!!!!!!

LOL i cant choose between them lol and its not just them i root for any spanish or swiss player. Ya3ni awal Moya, then Ferrero o now Nadal. Along with Martina Hingis and now Federer.

The reason behind it is la2na in football i support a Spanish Club fa 7abait ilmunta5ab ilisbany oo Swiss is like my 2nd home fa ya3ni 7ata in football when they both meet madri min ashaji3 i stay neutral.

%#&*&%$#@#$ ;X ART SPORT IS NOT WORKING i didn't see any one of them ;(

Angel: HADDI! ART Sport 3 is working fine! Tune in at 6 pm and they've got full coverage...

The only problem is the rain. Thats what's stopping the game. Replays from the US Open of 2005 were on Tuesday and yesterday because play was suspended :/
But other than that no surprises at all :P The best players are surfacing and its only going to get better from here..I won't bother with a new post about the tournament until we get some real tennis going on ;)
