GO SERENA! It's her turn this time. |

Per live scoreboard,
Schnyder 6-3,5-4 over Yan. Patty served for the match but lost her serve. |

By the way, who's outraged that Venus vs. Serena won't be covered at all by any channel? |
|

03/08/2008 at 09:56 AM |
Schnyder breaks Yan to win 6-3,6-4. Williams Sisters shortly. |

It looks like A-rod and Feli are going to run a little bit later than 10 o'clock because the doubles is not finished. |

Hey, Schwab, are u watching it or something or do u just have live scores? How can we watch serena and venus. |
|

03/08/2008 at 09:59 AM |
Go Serena! Go Venus! I like them both, but I think Venus maybe playing better at this point. Players who are in a slumps Roger, Rafa, Janky, Petrova. |

If you went through the trouble of installing "Sopcast" in your computer, then you can try going here for Bangalore:

Papo, dude. Are you watching the same bad stream as the rest of us?

I suspect the livestream will start along with the broadcast, not exactly wise... |

thanks Doug for your great reports on Dubai!
It's interesting to see that Dubai is a sort of modern "potemkin"/village city build on sand! I'm curious to see how it's going to "grow old"? How is Dubai going to look like in 15 years? Will women finally be able to drive?!
I'm also wondering whether Qatar will have a shot at that Olympic bid...If one remembers what happened for London's 2012 win, with Sebastian Coe and Blair "working it" (ahem) behind the scenes prompting loads of negative reactions from the French, who lost big there, I guess the Qataris are deploying a lot of their $ to make sure the choice goes to their side...Will it work? Chicago is in the race too and so are Madrid, Rio, Tokyo, Prague and Baku. I'm all for Rio!!

F-Lo holds to love. He's holding his own against Andy so far.
TennisChica, yes I'm stuck with the low quality stream also. Better than nothing. |

I cannot believe I am watching encore matches of the great Tennis Channel Open and live tennis with some of the greats of the game is going on. I am so taking down my satellite dish. This is ridiculous. I have to be scouring the internet trying to find live feeds and doing scoreboard watching while live tennis is going on. Someone needs to tell Tennis Channel that the reason why there is no one at the Tennis Channel Open is because they are all at home watching live scoreboards of matches that are of interest. |

Why are Eurosport starting the tennis from 3.30? Play has been underway for ten minutes already...not that I'm sure I can bear to watch this one, as I don't think F-Lo has much hope today, much as I'd like to see him win this. |
|
Posted by Papo |
03/08/2008 at 10:37 AM |
F-Lo always looking to end points up at the net. Very agressive strategy from him and it's working so far. |

Flo's a new man Ros! He's been serving great - and his head seems to be screwed much straighter and tighter, imo. This will be a tough match to call, imo. |

My live stream is a bit like a Georges Seurat painting. Kinda waiting for Feli and Andy to spend a Sunday in the Park or something.
Vamos Feli! He has a tough task- Andy is looking mighty good. |

feli is so beautiful. everytime he hitches up his shorts, he exposes so much more of those beautiful golden legs, rippling with muscles ยจ*swoon*
roddick is furiously at it with his "gear" and is prolly on fifth gear just about now. looks like an exciting final thus far! :) |

but now the feed is brilliant for the commercials of MEXICO! ;-) |

Feli sometimes seems like he is moving in slow motion. Fun contrast in energy and movements between points- even during.
Oh Feli- your backhand can make me cringe....oh Andy- that volley made me cringe as well. |
