    Anyone find it odd that Heather Watson and her partner are DEFENDING CHAMPIONS in the mixed doubles yet are not seeded? Wierd.

    I picked Cilic before the tourney but in this form you can't see past Federer.

    He isn't human.

    The fact they've even started the debate of is he playing better than he ever has, at the age of 35, says everything.

    35 yr old and he hasn't dropped a set, playing as good as he was 10-15 years ago, you're right the guy isn't human lol.

    He's the nearest to a sporting genius I have ever seen or ever will see. He just has this aura of effortless cool and his talent is almost * like. If * ever blessed a man with a * given talent to play Tennis it was Federer. Even just watching him glide around the court with his quality of movement and balance is a thing of beauty. Especially on grass.

    So its the most boring and power reliant player against the most self assured.

    I hope Garbine wins. The Williams sisters ruin tennis.

    Solid start with both players holding serve up to 2-2. Going to be a slugfest you suspect.

    Mon the Mug. Some pressure having the former Spanish King showing up to watch you win.

    Big hold there, going down an early break could be a real confidence blow.

    Psychological warfare from Venus that hold.

    Along with the buzzword about 'weapons' if I hear another * yarn about this 'Titanium paint NOT being chalk anymore' I'm going to flip. We get it BBC.

    Think Williams might get the break here. Don't fancy Muguruza's chances if she has to come back from a set down.

    edit: Whew, looking better.

    If Venus wins the first set then...Time to put my Xbox on.

    Good to see Garbine show some power.
