Wimbledon-
100 million, that’s how much the roof on centre court costs. 100 million, that’s also the number of strawberries that will be served in the Fortnight… 100 million, that’s Li Na’s audience in China during her last slam. 100 million, that’s just a lot!
Now onto “Sven-sighting.” He was in Andy Murray’s Player’s Guest box, during the match where our Braveheart beat LUBY. That player’s box is better than the Royal Box. Geezer once turned one down for the other. Yup, took the player’s box, but Big Boss said the same thing happened at the US Open.
Li Na and Maria Sharapova are the highest paid female players; they both have amazing endorsements, and they also have the same agent. Yup, he is also a great guy: Max Eisenbud of IMG. “Bravo-man.” We are thrilled for you and all your hard work and success. Max show me the money. He’s a great guy, great dad, great husband. Bravo little Max. That’s what he calls himself when he is standing near his old buddy Max the Beast Mirnyi.
Sven , I wonder how Greg Rusedski felt calling the Murray match and seeing you in that box. You and Greg sure had a good run together… more later.

Here we are in Chicago. What a great event. We've been to the WILSON factory daily. Love to see some of the great old frames we played with.
This was a tennis tournament.... Like no other. This was a U.S. Open like no other.. Let's start with new logo. It's click art like ours? But we aren't the USTA.
The only way to describe this U.S. open is soaking wet without raining... It's really hard to play tennis when your socks are soaking wet and you are "sloshing" in your shoes. Your shoes get really heavy when they get wet.
What a start. First match in the new stadium and bye bye ladies number one seed and WTA World Number One. Simona Halep. Losing to Estonian Kaia Kanepi.
Wow. Where do we start. Forward. Backward. Sideways. I sound like a tennis player doing on court drills.
