Anyone else watching this year? Henman's embarrassing slaughter did not at all surpise me. I did feel a little sorry for him though, the way the British Public just expect him to win, because, hey! He's British! As if we (and he) didn't already know. It is going to take a lot of ANYONE to beat Federer this year, I reckon.

I will be watching. Hope Andy Murray does well this year, more so after the crap that someone put up on his website regarding the Dunblane Tragedy...Sickos. I don't think we will see Henman back again. He has had his time I think.

I've been watching here and there. I was impressed Philipousis made it past the first round. Hewitt also did well, but was outed by the bearded Baghdatis. Looks like the seeders got it right with the top 4 women's seeds in the semis. As much as I admire Federer and his great sportsmanship, it'd be nice to see someone new win this year - and not Nadal - he's cleaned up enough on clay!

Well, since it will be those two in the final tomorrow, looks like you won't get your wish this year! (lol)
I agree about Henman having had his time, Senna. He's just starting to be an embarrassment. What pisses me off is when he plays really badly because he can't concentrate on his game enough and the BBC just make constant excuses for him. "Oh, he did the best he could", blah blah blah. That is not acceptable behaviour to accept if you want to be the champ damn it!! Grrrrrrrrrr!!!! (hehe, sorry for the rant. ) I just sort of mean whenever you watch him lately you can see him holding back so much, and it doesn't look like he even expects any better of himself. But Murray really did do well this year, especially for someone so young, he really gave it his all. I want Federer to win tomorrow. Only because he didn't knock Andre Agassi out. Really, I wanted andre to win because I 'have loved him since his win in 92 and wanted him to go out in a blaze of glory. It just won't be the same!! For him annd Martina to have won the respective titles this year would have been fantastic. I missed the women's final, because the finalists this year didn't interest me enough to watch, though I think Mauresmo is a deserving champion. I was disappointed to see neither of the Williams sisters, or Sharapova reach the final though.
