So, a quick run down: I want to express my disappointment at the ladies field on this year’s tournament. All of the power houses/favorites are out. I am however surprised to see the Williams sisters still in pursuit. Due to the fact that they have been MIA most of the season and the surge of Serbian favorites, Ana Ivanovic and Jelena Jankovic. At this point my pick for the ladies championship is one of the sisters.
The men’s field is a little bit more interesting. A few of my favorites are still playing, Rafael Nadal, Marat Safin, and Feliciano Lopez (very surprised at this one). I don’t know who to cheer for in this match. Also, I’m not surprised at Andy Roddick’s early exit, and wanted Janko Tipsarevic to have gone a little farther. Final thoughts after the tournament.
Here are my picks:
Ladies: Venus Williams
Gentlemen: Roger Federer
