Serena's match was fantastic, she and Elena played great it could have gone either way, Elena had some chances but Serena is just too tough and she hate to lose.

The other match was pitiful, Venus didn't have any competition, Safina just faded away.

So Saturday the Williams sisters again.

Oh wow so the sisters will be hashing it out against each once more huh? Pretty cool.

They're showing a little bit of the Roddick's last match now. He looks really good!

GO RODDICK!!!

This is so sad:

Good luck to Roddick tomorrow! I know he dated Mandy Moore and I like her so GO RODDICK!

I have to say many congrats to Andy Roddick
Of course I was cheering on Andy Murray, & Murray has nothing to feel ashamed about, he played well - just not well enough!

Of course now I WILL be cheering Andy Roddick in the final - if Murray went out in the Semi's - I'd like it to be to the one that wins the tournament!

I watched the Ladies final today, & although I prefer Venus, it was a well deserved win by Serena.But I was so pleased that they won the Ladies Doubles too

I watched most of the Venus/Serena match this morning. Congrats to Serena! She was so excited to win. I just don't how siblings play each other! They've always amazed me.

Andy vs Roger should be quite an exciting match tomorrow. teddy, are you getting up at
6 a.m. to watch? [/quote]

As I watched the Williams matched I couldn't imagine how I would feel playing against my sister. Not letting up if she has a bad game, but then it is a career & not a hobby.

I had to smile a bit when they were playing the women's doubles later, there were a few critisisms from the commentators about how well they were playing! Ummmmmmmmmmm...sorry but hadn't they just some 5 hours before played a final against each other & had the highs, lows & huge adrenalin rush from that? I know they are professional players...but hey....! (well they won anyway )

I always wonder how it is for the folks. If it were my two boys against each other it would be so hard to be happy for one of them and so disappointed for the other

I did find it strange that their mother still remained very very straight faced when they won the doubles together - I could understand in the singles final - but not really so much in the doubles.. as they did it together.

But what do I know?

Now if my sons got to win the doubles together I would be celebrating all over the place!! :confetti:

Not sure I could cut the lawn like their Dad as I would still want to watch them and be there for them. But it would be difficult, especially if one kept beating the other one.

But, I am sure their folks are just very proud of both of them getting to the finals as often as those two girls have!

Didn't see the match today but congrats to Serena. Sorry Venus

GO RODDICK!!!! I want him to finally get a win over Roger. He has to control his nerves and go for everything no matter what.
