Just getting caught up, so excited for Serena! Olympic Champ! Career Golden Slam!
I am a bit shocked at the utter dominance she displayed at these games. I know people were predicting her to win, but to win 6-0, 6-1 against Sharapova is just insane.
Congrats to the Bryan brothers as well, that's really great especially after Beijing.
Now on to Murray/Federrer

I love watching the Bryan brothers when they are that in synch on the court which is much of the time. And I'm psyched for Serena too. Now I would love, love, love to see Murray win his match tomorrow.

Federer has to win tomorrow! He has to!
Robson/Murray will face Azarenka/Mirnyi in the mixed final. The home team is a sweet story and all....but I hope Vika/Max win! And while I like Robson, I cannot bring myself to root for Murray

YAY Serena! YAY Bryan Brothers!
I'll be rooting for Fed tomorrow, but won't complain (much) if Murray grabs gold for GB

Wow--I didn't know Murray made two finals. I like Roger and now I know if he wins that all is not lost for Andy. But seeing a guy win in his nation for his nation is compelling.

Go Andy!!
Go Roger!!
I like both for different reasons and would love for both to win that gold medal, but I know that's not possible, so I guess I'll root more for all of us and the rest of the Tennis World that will be watching. After all, if both play like we all know they can play and treat us to one heck of a match worthy of the title Olympic Gold Medal Final, then we all win.
Of course depending on what ends up happening tomorrow I might change my tune, but that's my stand and I'm stickin to it!!

I am so torn!! I want Roger to win this to complete his career but also want Team GB to do well. If either win I'll be happy but probably a little happier if Roger does it. And Murray can still win a gold with Laura - which would be lovely!! Originally Posted by FSfan107

Serena was just on fire this past week and she is still in with a good chance of being a double gold medalist with her sister!! Originally Posted by Loves_Shizuka

Womens doubles gold medal match starting now on BBC3 for anyone who access to such channels.
Venus/Serena against Hradecka/Hlavackova - like the men, this is a repeat of the Wimbledon final.

Love watching Williams sisters play doubles. They're in a whole other league, but seriously, what is with all the bloody empty seats?

Don't even get me started. The mens bronze match between Nole and Delpo is on court one now; the place is about 1/4 full. Apparently the tennis tickets have been "sold out" for months. Originally Posted by kylet3

Sold out my horses arse! those are the tickets that belong to the corporate sponsors and the so called "Olympic Family" it drives me absolutely nuts that they continue to do this, every Olympic Games it doesn't matter where they are, but for some reason the IOC has taken away even more tickets from the general public this games and it seems to be glaring even more so these games. The fact that they have a "lottery system" for people to get tickets also drives me nuts, I wish it would just be first come first serve ala ticketmaster.
