MOST LIKELY TO BE

French OPen: Federer
Wimbledon: Federer
US open: Federer.

But. maybe. if things. should happen.

French Open: Andy M. Cos. I think he has great advantage of being comfortable on Clay. *shrug* that's my theory.
Wimbledon: Andy Roddick, cos he's been so close for three years. You never know. This might be the year he does it.
Us open: Andy or Andy. Cos. Andy R's won it and he's dying to win it again and Andy M loves USO and if he keeps playing like he does. You never know.

So it's either 100% Federer... or 100% invasion of the Andys?!?
Well im definitly prefering the 2nd option!!!! Im definitly going to flip if Federer wins Wimbledon again.. and poor old roddick comes 2nd AGAIN.
But im joining no Anti-Federer Clubs.  

Yup.
XP My Andys Own. <3 Together they can conquer the WORLD! So I like to think...
Seriously, I am going to have to physically get my hands on that man if he DARES to win Wimbledon again, it will be 4th consecutive and he will be making history. he's not allowed to do that. Kay?
Andy has been SO darn close! it's so annoying.

French Open- Nadal
Wimbley- Nalbandian
US Open- Andy Murray (if he carries on the way he is)

The article is about how to roger-proof tennis.
1: There's an unwritten rule that basketball players call glass before attempting bank shots. well when federer unspools one of those tell-me-your-joking winners on the dead run or flicks a backhand overhead winner, he now has to announce it in advance. you know just so we can be sure it wasnt a fluke. failure to do so will result in a point to the opponent. (If his speaking during play is deemed a distraction by the umpire his oponent will be awarded the point.
2: You know federers second serves that kick wide and land in rowh h, or dart up the t? no more of those. from now on federer is required to hit second serves into the middle of the box
3: Lets test the bounds of federers versatility. on clay hes required to serve and volley on every point. on grass he must stay behind the baseline. on surfaces in between the opponent will determine federers position.
4: Basketball has a shot clock. now federer does as well. no more of his patient play ffollowed by a spasm of brilliance. If he doesnt hit a winner in the first four shots, his opponent gets the point.
5: The celerity around the court thats his most underated gift? lets handicap that. from now on he must play one set per match with his cow juliette tethered to his ankle.
6: From now on federer must interact with the fans, accommodate all media requests, and schmooze with sponsors over baked brie and bad bordeaux at insufferable pre tournament parties. Whats that? he already does this? okay scratch this one.
7: We know his girlfriend is by all accounts pleasant and supportive. from now on he'll date martina hingis who does for tennis playing boyfriends what the burmuda triangle does for passing ships

its funnier somehow the first time you read it... lets surgically attach his cow to his ankle... that oughta slow him down
