Would this one be called a Golden Serena Slam?

All women are ugly without make up.

This is just the start for Murray. He will go on to eclipse all Fed and Rafa's achievements.

This is a tricky one. Having 5 slams would increase wear and tear on players and arguably devalue slams. Keeping 4 slams but moving one to China damages the tradition of the events. On the other hand why should GB/USA/France/Aus have the most important touraments for all time just because they...

Actually, I put option 2 because I thought we were talking about NADAL. Option 3 at best for Nalbandian.

The singles tournament consists of 64 players of which a maximum of 4 can be from any one country. The number of players a country has depends on world rankings. Countries who don't qualify any players by ranking may get wild cards etc. There are also 32 doubles teams. Both players must be...

I think he'll win AO and Wimbledon. Outside chance of FO. I reckon he'll win OG, but he'll be so tired come USO that someone will "get lucky".
