Title: Honest Maria quote!

'"I never experienced having 10 friends. I've always had about four really close friends. I've never really been that social."
I am surprised it's as many as four... roflmao

Can you have a quick work with Justine and tell her that if they meet in the final it would be nice for her to let Maria win? Because that's the only chance she will have.... ;)

Bugger! Well I have to say I will be quite happy no matter who from the semi-finals wins it. Justine is classy, Maria is lovely, Ana is sexy... and Jankovic is up and coming.... Not a bad semi final line up for me!
EDIT:- To be honest I'd like to see Serena in there too, but you can't have it all!

Mind you if she asked me to marry her, I would accept although I would make her sign a pre-nup first! :ok:

Ok Choks - just have a look at my thread in the WTA would you and see what you think, no hard feelings!

Heh, wasn't expecting to be confronted with all that cheesecake upon opening the thread.
Not that I'm fussed about it, mind! :P
Actually Sharapova would probably be better served by keeping a few close-knit friends rather than a sprawling entourage of hangers-on and bludgers. But I suspect Yuri doesn't help matters - I recall schoolmates who couldn't keep friends because of controlling, eccentric mums or dads! :unsure:

How can SW19 talk, he struggles to get any serena picture fitted in cos he has to reduce it's size so much... roflmao

To be honest Petalp I was just spamming up Choka's thread :P I knoe Choka likes to spice things up so wanted him to have some lovely pics to see when he came back.
I like most of the top names on the WTA Tour, Maria just gets ahead because I remember her fighting like a tiger at Wimbledon 2004, the fact she looks great is an just an added bonus ;)

God how I could have done with someone like yourself on the BBC board when she lost that title in 2005 - awful they were :(

It's a shame people were ilke that when she lost in the semi's in 2005. I think she is very much underestimated to be honest. Neither Henin nor Venus Williams had a slam when they turned 20 yet Maria had 2. I think people forget she is only just 20 sometimes. I don't think she has the game of a Williams sister or a Henin, but she has guts and determination. That's the only way she has got so far at RG. There is potentially more to come from her. Potentially she could walk away with 6 slams or more by the end of her career...who knows? :shrug:

Well to be honest who knows, I always thought she may end up with possibly even 10 - depends on how long she stays on tour really!
I revelled in defending her for the month after it though - ripping trolls apart roflmao
That's possibly how i've gotten so close with maria :wub:
Gav - June 6, 2007 08:10 AM (GMT)
Of course if she keeps on playing against Serena the way she has done this year she may potentially get no more slams!!! (At least until Serena has retired!)

Yeah it was a great final! But Serena was off colour that day/year.... Saying that Maria I think would have won no matter what Serena was playing like (most on this site will disagree). But another thing about that is that I haven't seen Maria display the same fighting ability and hunger she had in that tournament until the French Open this year (with the possible exception of last year's Us Open). At the Aussie Open this year she was more of a damp squib.... maybe Serena kicking her arse twice this year has made her realise?

Well I wanted something different to happen, something interesting, as Serena had owned it before that.
I totally expected her to stuff Maria, but Maria, well she was perfect that day, she was 17, I was 16, ahhhhh... :wub: :wub: :wub:
