Check out the votes....some were WAY off. Grass is just not Ivanovic's surface and she's tactically weak...proven by the way she lost today.
 
time to revive this thread. here are the QF match-ups:

Jie Zheng vs. Nicole Vaidisova
Agnieszka Radwanska vs. Serena Williams
Elena Dementieva vs. Nadia Petrova
Venus Williams vs. Tamarine Tanasugarn

who are going to make the semis?

my picks are zheng, radwanska, petrova and venus williams.
 
Jie Zheng vs. Nicole Vaidisova
Agnieszka Radwanska vs. Serena Williams
Elena Dementieva vs. Nadia Petrova
Venus Williams vs. Tamarine Tanasugarn

who are going to make the semis?

[/QUOTE]

my picks are Vaidisova, Serena, Dementieva and Venus Williams.
 
Jie Zheng vs. Nicole Vaidisova
Agnieszka Radwanska vs. Serena Williams
Elena Dementieva vs. Nadia Petrova
Venus Williams vs. Tamarine Tanasugarn

who are going to make the semis?

my picks are Vaidisova, Serena, Dementieva and Venus Williams.
To finish that...

Serena Williams [6] vs Venus Williams [7],


And they got a pretty good look at the doubles crown as well.
 
My picks Q:

Jie Zheng def. Nicole Vaidisova, 7-5 7-5
(Zheng is on a roll and will pull a surprise)

Agnieszka Radwanska def Serena Williams, 6-3 6-2
(Serena experiences total melt-down... for some reason)

Nadia Petrova def Elena Dementieva, 3-6 6-3 6-1
(grass favors Petrova and Dementieva is known to experience once in a while dementia-looking break-downs of her game)

Venus Williams def Tamarine Tanasugarn, 6-2 6-1
(Total domination)


My picks S:

Radwanska def. Zheng, 6-3 6-3
(Zheng finally has no solution, while the young Radwanska forgets about having the pressure of being semifinalist)

V. Williams def Petrova, 6-4 6-4
(getting stronger and stronger)


My picks F:

V. Williams def Radwanska, 6-1 6-0
(Experience vs. total confusion of what's like to be in a final)

Rooting for Zheng.
Others, the 2 williams.

jmsx, what if Zheng wins. How do you see VW vs Zheng .. total domination ?? VW is playing really strongly.
 
Can you believe this QF's?. 4 Top seeds out. Hardly anyone to choose from. I think Venus has all set to win the title. But i woudn't be so sure Serena will get to the finals. She's been playing like crap, but enough to make it into the quarters though since she's a TOP SEED. That's what you expected from them.

I'm really dissapointed but whatever.
 
Its not going to happen probably.. but I hope Elena wins!! Go Elena! lol..

But realistically I think its going to be..

Zheng over Vaidisova

Serena over Radwanska

Dementieva over petrova

Venus over Tanasugarn


...

Serena over Zheng

Venus over Dementieva

...

Venus wins..
 
Jie Zheng vs. Nicole Vaidisova
Agnieszka Radwanska vs. Serena Williams
Elena Dementieva vs. Nadia Petrova
Venus Williams vs. Tamarine Tanasugarn

who are going to make the semis?

My Picks:

Zheng- Vaidisova is a headcase
Radwanska- The grass momentum I hope, will continue
Petrova- I just don't think Dementieva will hold up...though Petrova loses focus alot also
Venus- Tanasugarn is in her first ever Gran Slam Quarterfinal....she'll crumble against Venus
 
This has been the most pathetic display of women's tennis at Wimbledon I remember in my life. They pretty much all suck.

To bad Justin retired, this would have been a freebe for her.

A freebe like last year against Bartoli? :roll:


She's still young enough, she can make a "comeback".
 
what's in a name?

if dementieva loses this match she'll be called 'demented'. if she goes on to win wimbledon she'll be 'dementor'. ;)
 
On TV they should show Leconte and Bahrami playing doubles.It would be much more fun then watching crappy womens matches
 
You know what's hilarious?

On TV they just showed a commercial for something to help dementia.

Now Serena on.:/ Do you think this will be a real match or a beatdown? I don't follow WTA match,so I don't know.
 
C'monnn 'Reena!

A quick word about the Williams girls complaining about the scheduling 'consipiracy': Venus was pretty gracious about it during her post-match press conference Saturday. Felt things ought to be fair to the men, too. Made good sense to me. But, then Serena and Oracene got into it.

EDIT: Oh, and speaking of conspiracies, how about the ridiculously easy draws for the two of them? It's like the entire WTA is in on this. And the sisters score opposite halves AGAIN? Paging barry. barry, please report to the draw-rigging counter, directly behind the tournament desk. Also all other draw conspiracists. Stat.

Anyway, go Venus and Serena. As long as I don't have to wake up and actually watch the final.

zheng was too consistent-well deserved win. wins it 6-1 in the 3rd.
 
Zheng has been amazing, and I think I read somewhere that she almost didn't take the Wildcard she got into the draw, and look at her now. I would love to see her go the distance and win this whole thing, though realistically I don't think she will, she has showed a lot of heart in getting this far, hopefully this motivates her to put more dedication back into her singles game.
 
Stepanek was there to cheer on her girl, Vaidisova. No wonder she won coz love is blind.
Is Stepanek now a girl?

... I thought Radwanska could possibly beat Serena, but not Zheng; she will be exhausted, and I think Serena will beat her in straight sets now.

hahaha. i hope it was just a coincidence. :)
Funny... it might be a coincidence, but advertisers could have the say what page they want their add to appear on, and when they want their commercials to appear. But no reason for any advertiser to be mocking her name... so it's got to be a coincidence.

seems to have worked though; she overcame her 'dementia' to win the match. ;)
