Federer Closing In On Number One

Roger Federer is the best. Roger Federer is the best ever. Roger Federer is going to be number one again…. All we can say is Go Rogi!!! Or “Allez Rogi ”

Roger Federer there is no betterer? I’ve seen tennis for fifty years. His league might have ten to twenty players. But Roger would still be the best.  One  guy in the same league was the late, great Pancho Gonzales he would have probably been 2 … Laver, Sampras, Rafa, Emerson, Connors, Segura …… but to say same league is so hard to say based on everything from the shoes to the strings. We didn’t mention rackets. The strings are making these crazy ” bend them like Beckham”  shots of Rogers.

I’m missing the blue courts. Yup. They need work. But so do those courts in Rome. Yikes the dust was swirling and the clay was head high. The blue should have never been used without more testing. The blue was smart for television. Tom Nash is right 10sballs.com London correspondent. He suggested red balls? But back to blue courts. I’m telling you put the players in blue clothes and the blur…. or they might disappear … The  new surface should have been tested at a 250 level event. Not a 1000. ATP suits. Shame on you. You earn a big ” foot fault ” …..  new pres  :( ? Sad.

The Rome courts are shockingly dry. Are they breaking up? Tennis is in a Golden Age. WTA you get a bunch of “foot faults “….   Stacy the buck stops with you? Where were your greatest on earth female athletes the last two weeks ????? These are combined events. The ladies are there. Television viewers find that out on Fridays. That’s so sad. The money is in TV rights. Whose snoozing there…….?

Sorry for the short lob. Gotta run. Last thoughts.

Good luck to both Roger and the wonderful Novak Djokovic.  Yes, 10sballs.com loves him too. It all changed for us with bounce, bounce, bounce….. Three reasons.

1) Dusan Vemic joined 10sballs.Com   global  team. Google him./tube him. A Great player !

2) Novak is one amazing player….. a great 18 months.

3) Novak  Is charming and enjoys life. He works hard and  has a happy pleasant attitude.

The other semis is going to be totally AmazeBalls. Totally. Yes, Deb that’s for you.

Rafa. Rafael Nadal plays David Ferrer. They will do battle for hours. Tomorrow will be spent glued to the TV.

Thank you Queens Club. One of the best small, exclusive tennis clubs in the world. We will cherish being on your hallowed grounds.

Forest Hills / Westside tennis club. Take note. The membership at Westside should be embarrassed that they let the old home of the US Open fall into a dumpster. The club deserved better. The neighbors deserved better. The story was that the clubs membership was $ cheap and wouldn’t pay assessments to keep the beautiful place beautiful. The members had the full responsibility for the ruin of the stadium. Shocking. FYI …  It’s the regal looking place in the current Wilson TV ads.

Big congrats to Andy Seppi. What a match. Bravo.

Shout outs to Austin Karosi. Sven. Floris Minneart.  Especially  “rob”    @robbiekoenigtennis.

It’s 10s month in the USA. Go play……….. Look @ Do Do @ 95 … AmazeBalls.

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.
