And I'll give the Nadal-Djokovic SF a try.

^ Nishikori held a guitar last year - sometime earlier in the year I think... American hard court season.

Good try, but the "87" actually represents 8/7 (8th July)

I think the trophy was changed last year - 2015 - the Year of Novak. You really thought I would miss details from that year?

I actually think I know now, but if you don't want me to guess, that's fine. I just thought that after you said "before 1995-ish" I could guess your age.

Nishikori won the title in the previous 3 years and I believe it was always guitar shaped during his reign, though last year he got a real guitar.I think the trophy was changed last year - 2015 - the Year of Novak. You really thought I would miss details from that year?

Well my guess is that July 8th 2007 was the date of the Wimbledon final that you attended in person.

Yeah, my school career was over in 2008. So true. My experience is that you want to get out of there ASAP when you're in there, but not long after you want to go back because it was easy compared to "real life."
