In the words of Mr Gigglefits, without him, Rafa, Sod – hell, without even Muzz or Djoko, my interest in the WTF final just went “nerrrrrrgh” [motions downwards].
It was nuclear warfare in the O2 arena today, as Mr Bodily-Waste and Mr Dimples traded blistering groundstokes for two hours. Pee had break chances in the first set, but [...]

Federer fans, let’s raise a fund to be used for giving Bobby Sod a lifetime’s supply of jelly beans, as the Dimpled Swede took down Rafa today, 6-4 6-4.
Good news for Rafa fans? He’s playing much better than he was back in Paris (Bercy), and it was probably one of the better matches from his [...]

Rafa, WHYYYYYYYYY?! You had your hair perfectly done a few months ago, and now even Roger’s trying to avoid staring at it.
Hair gel, hand over, NOW!
You too Nando. I could make fried rice with all that grease in your hair.
Having gone to an all-girls high school next to an all-boys high school where all the [...]

Sorry for the impromptu MIA. And I’m not “back” yet. I have one last trust law exam tomorrow before I’m free as a bird til March next year. Yeah suckers, summer lovin’ had me a blast…
ANYWAY… just sneaked in to give you the WTF draws to frazzle over. And WTF is just about the way you’d [...]

I’m not one to complain about my lot in life. For every stretch of tough luck, you get moments like the Wimbledon fifth set, 15-14, when Lady Luck does her most extraordinary work. I try to remember that, and remember that the one thing you can’t grasp in life is luck.
BUT THIS IS FUCKING BULLSHIT.
Tennis [...]

Deservingly, the Sod has broken into the top 10 in time for his home tournament in Stockholm.
How can you say no to this face?
Now for fuck sake, go kill it in Stockholm and Paris. It would be such a shame if the French Open finalist didn’t qualify for London.

A home video of an Austrian Federer livescoring the Rafa v Soderling match at Roland Garros. (Fast forward to 1:25 if you need to.)
His BFF:
Just further proof that you cyber-people are probably all psychos. I feel so sane all of a sudden.
Now if you’ll excuse me, it’s [...]

My ears are still ringing. What the hell just happened?
I’ll tell you what: Marin Cilic just put on the lights-out performance of the year to defeat Rafael Nadal in two sets 6-1 6-3.
And the craziest thing is – the scoreline is actually a lot closer than the match. At 5-0 in the first set, Rafa [...]

I am sold, folks. HOW CAN YOU RESIST THE DIMPLES?
And the wrinkly eyes?!
If any country knows how to treat its guests properly, it’s China – as the hosts entertained the players with some spectacular Kungfu display.
This was Dootsie during the US Open final:
And this was Dootsie after Wimbledon this year:
Of course, the Dimpled One got [...]
