oi the drama today! ... Venus, the rain, Serena's injury (which was uber painful to watch), the rain, Nadal/Soderling 3rd set TB, the rain, Clement/Llodra won their doubles match 14-12 in the 5th -- having played it over three days, and there is a doubles match in progress (Garcia-Prieto/Levy-Ram) -- 4 tiebreaks, and they are 76 in the 5th! Woah! .... no shortage of stories on this day 7 Igor K & Dima won their doubles match ... Nikolay and Mikhail are doing well in their matches, both up 2 sets at this time ... and Baghdatis beat Nalbandian (with a bagel in the 3rd set even!) ..... hopefully it's another quick rain *crosses fingers*

Play Supended..surprise surprise Now that the rain is over: Richie won in another straight-set-match ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Next up: Andy Roddick (please let them show it late afternoon, pleeeeeze...) The rain didn't help Maria, she lost in straight sets to the thin Williams sister (the one with the beautiful gazelle-like legs, according to Martina Navratilova ) Michaella Krajicek lost to the chubby gum-ball Bartoli, good tournament for both girls ;D It's crazy: There aren't any more singles matches scheduled for today (apart from the on-going Williams-Henin clash that Justine will win) and now the weather is quite lovely in London...

And as you predicted Justine won the OOP for tomorrow should be out soon, I hope. I'll finally be able to watch Wimby again tomorrow!

...and all these matches are being played before my TV coverage starts... sniff Anyway, found an album with lots of Wimby photos (and Queens and RG and other tourneys). Many are very artistic. The guy seems to update it daily. Enjoy! fotos.sapo.pt/cmorais24/gallery/0000208b
