Title: Let's look forward to LA!


The Dav - August 3, 2006 05:01 PM (GMT)
Oh, is San Diego still on-going? I hadn't noticed...

roflmao

Anyway, let's look forward to LA, the top 8 seeds according to the entry list are...

1. Sharapova
2. Petrova
3. Dementieva
4. Kuznetsova
5. Davenport
6. Safina
7. Groenefeld
8. Hantuchova

There's also a pair of sisters that no-one has heard of...

Yes, that's right! The Radwanska sisters! roflmao Nah, Venus and Serena are both scheduled to play, and will both be unseeded :unsure:

Really looking forward to this one (for obvious reasons :D ), I'll be cheering on the big 3 ;)

Could not agree more Dav! :D

I hope venus doesnt draw Davenport early, we're reserving that meeting for the final ;)

I know, I hope they're all in different sections but it'll probably be 1R - Lindsay v Serena, 2R - Venus v the winner :rolleyes:

dl04 - August 3, 2006 08:19 PM (GMT)
Yeah, the big 3! :yahoo:

Couldnt give a stuff about Sharapova, Petrova etc............although i will be supporting Dementieva if the big 3 flounder.

Go Lindsay, Serena, and VENUS!!! :D

Scotsguy - August 3, 2006 08:25 PM (GMT)
Rootin for Maria, Elean D and Serena....but hoping dav does well....

Mkkreuk - August 4, 2006 11:22 AM (GMT)

Oh thanks. I hope she is OK, we want her to win the USo dont; we? :D Imagine that, 3 slams! :o Anyway unless JHh wins the USo (and I dont; think she will eb fave to do so) Ameleie will have the honour of the best slam record this year. :ok:

Over on Amelies messageboards there hoping for an Amelie vs Sveta final at the USO.

But yes definatly, her first 3 slams all in 1 year, how fab would that be. :D

But if not i would like it if Sveta or Kimmi won the USO. It wont be Justine

dl04 - August 4, 2006 11:29 AM (GMT)
No, we want venus to win the US Open SB! ;) roflmao

Yep, amelie is such a sweetie :D Sveta is also, she has the most infectious personality.....

also a shout out to Davenport and Serena, particulary the former for the Open! :ok:

welshboy91 - August 4, 2006 12:10 PM (GMT)
Can somebody please put the entry list up?

welshboy91 - August 4, 2006 12:13 PM (GMT)
I wonder who Makiri will play 1st round? Please don't be a resurgent player like Jankovic, Golovin or Zvonareva. A nice easy draw would be lovely because shes not playin well. I am looking forward to the BIG 3 playing in the same tournament again.

The Dav - August 4, 2006 01:17 PM (GMT)
Sveta - OUT!

Davenport is 4th seed and gets a bye, I'd have preferred her not to have had one though, she needs matches...

In know what you mean dav, can you imagine if she'd have to play venus or serena in round 2, with no match practice :blink:

Still go Lindsay! If she's been training hard and praticising well, then she could get into her groove :ok:

Yeah, that does annoy me in tournaments where the big guns get byes. you get the most dire first round matches like Vinci vs Koukalova or what have you roflmao

Yeah, I hate it, you're hanging around until Thursday waiting for the big names to roll out, I'm sorry, but news of Sania Mirza's latest R1 exit just can't sustain interest over the week! :lol:

dl04 - August 4, 2006 01:42 PM (GMT)
Yeah or Akiko Morigami's latest conquest roflmao

Thank God kim isnt playing next week, we couldnt have another boring set of results roflmao

I hope venus and Serena are wearing something great next week. I did love Serena's outfit in Cincinatti..............

Yeah, I see she's on another procession in SD :rolleyes:

Serena will look great as usual, Venus needs a new contract though, I know she's a talented designer, but she can only recycle so many Reebok dresses roflmao

dl04 - August 4, 2006 02:01 PM (GMT)
Yep, boring Kim moves on :rolleyes: roflmao

Yes Venus really needs a new sponsor, i'd love her to wear nike :D

Well what Venus is doing is actually very big of her, not many athletes would sponsor a company without being paid, although I doubt she's strapped for cash as it is :lol:

I think there are rumours that Nike are going to snap her up, so both her and Serena are in the same stable...

Yeah, Maria can often mess up, like her nice pregnant look she had going on in Melbourne :wacko:

Yeah the gold was stupid :rolleyes: But it's probably my favourite one from Sharapova...

Lindsay's was pretty simple, you never expect Lindsay to show up in a boob tube and hotpants roflmao I thought her best Wimbledon look was '04 :D

dl04 - August 4, 2006 02:35 PM (GMT)
oh yes, her Wimbledon 04 look was great :o :D I loved it, she looked so slim......

I also like her RG 2005 outfit, was a great colour, thought not as great as Myskina's :wub:
