1. If you mean Goran from CROATIA, then U have already seen them in Wimbledon 2001, when Goran won... BDW - NO ONE is like Goran! NO ONE!!!!! 1 and only. ;)

2. Martina Hingis (born Slovakian) had an injured leg (dunno ankle or knee!) so she paused 3 years.

Any of you watching Australian Open ?

I watched Hingis (my fav. player) - Clijsters match

She almost upset Kim. It was 1-2 at the end. Very good match.

Anyone knows exact reason why Martina was out of the game for so long ?

Yep, I missed that match : (
But I did watch the amazing final vs. Rafter
It was perfect. First ever wild card player to win the grandslam.
I'm so happy for Goran! He deserved it the most!

Dunno about that... The match U all should have in your sportscollection is the one from DaviesCup USA-Croatia! We won, but the match between Roddick and Ljubicic was, right after the Rafter-Ivanisevic, THE BEST MATCH EVER! I hate that little prick Roddick, and Ljubo thrashed him totally...

CROATIA WON THE DAVIES CUP!!!!!

she had a knee problem, but she is completely alright now!




Inzaghi, i'm happy that Croatia got the Davis cup! I'm from Croatia!

And, as i heard, Beck wasn't injured, he was positive on the doping test, and it would be a risk to let him play, 'cause if they win and it supposed that he really took stimulances they would take them the Salatara!

Sharapova annoyes me when seh screams, then i wish that i could get to her in a second and chop her head to pieces! and most of her prize money is from all those comercials and perfumes, clothes

but, i can't say that she's not pretty, i just think she could get more focused on the tennis and not to be next anna kournikova

Was he? Or was it some herbal crap? BDW that guy Hrbaty was on fire those 3 days, guy played like he never played before. I agree that you hadn't had a chance with Mertinak, but we didn't get to the finals just by being lucky. Remember - USA in Carson!!!!

And why does she. She is playing some excellent tennis, maybe not the best, but still, she's a great player.

I agree, her screaming is so f. annoying. It's sad!
And how about her talking ? It's like she's on crack or something...
However I don't agree with THAT she is pretty. If Martina wanted to be in all those commercials and stuff outside the tennis like Sharapova, she'd succeed twice as much as that ugly,annoying, super-overrated girl.

P.S
Still, nothing annoyes me more then the Williams sisters!

I see nothing's wrong with Sharapova' scream. I think it's just natural from women players though. For some, they need energy into their footwork to bash+swing the ball that affects the voice (scream) comes out of mouth. The rest...well I don't need to tell you the further details how it works. :tongue:

Her scream is to fake, she sounds like she screams just for sake of it.
Another reason some ppl can't stand her.

And I don't know why, but I somehow wanted Baghdatis to win, because it's his first Grand-Slam and he made up to finale. I felt sorry for him, but happy because of Roger, he was crying...

I just wanted to say this: I'm still very sorry I couldn't come to Bratislava, but Slovakians did a great job in hosting finals and all the people that came back to Croatia complimented you. So I conclude with apropriate words:

FORZA SLOVENSKO!
